The effect of exercise with low and high intensity on respiratory burst activities and neutrophils counts
Introduction: Although exercise his effects on human immune system, but its causes is not significantly cleared yet. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of exercise with moderate and high intensity, on changes of respiratory burst activities and neutrophil counts in college judoists. Methods: 10 male college judoists participated in this quazi-experimental study. Subjects run o...
متن کاملRole of myeloperoxidase in the respiratory burst of human neutrophils.
Myeloperoxidase (MPO), a heme enzyme present in the primary granules of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), has been demonstrated to participate in the oxygen-dependent microbicidal activity of these cells. Evidence for the importance of MPO in this role comes in part from studies of normal PMNs treated with the heme enzyme inhibitor, sodium azide. MPO has also been suggested to regulate the r...
متن کاملExtracellular Ca2+ regulates the respiratory burst of human neutrophils.
The role of extracellular calcium in the activation of respiratory burst in human neutrophils was studied by using the receptor agonist, N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), and the activator of protein kinase C phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). The level of intracellular free calcium was measured by using both cell suspensions and single cells in the presence and absence of extracell...
متن کاملFlavonoids Inhibit the Respiratory Burst of Neutrophils in Mammals
Neutrophils represent the front-line defence cells in protecting organisms against infection and play an irreplaceable role in the proper performance of the immune system. As early as within the first minutes of stimulation, neutrophilic NADPH oxidase is activated, and cells release large quantities of highly toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). These oxidants can be highly toxic not only for i...
متن کاملTermination of the respiratory burst in human neutrophils.
Recent evidence has suggested that a particulate O(2) (-)-forming system is responsible for the respiratory burst in activated neutrophils. The respiratory burst is normally a transient event, lasting only 30-60 min. To investigate the mechanism by which the burst is terminated, we examined the O(2) (-)-forming activity of neutrophil particles as a function of time in the presence and absence o...
