Responsiveness of Normal Human Neutrophils

چکیده

The effect of vinblastine on the mobility of human neutrophils was studied. Chemotactic responsiveness was decreased by approximately 80 to 95%, as measured in Boyden chambers, whereas random mobility, as measured in glass capillary tubes, was approximately doubled. Chemotactic responsiveness could be partially restored after dialysis of the treated cells, which is not compatible with an action of vinblastine on microtubules. The possibility is considered that this observation is an additional example of the effect of several microtubular binding agents on phenomena mediated at the phagocytic surface.

The effect of olive extract on human neutrophils

The neutrophil respiratory burst, which is essential for the host's ability to kill microorganisms, can be stimulated by some natural agents. Olea europaea (Oleaceae) is used as anti hypertensive, hyperglycemia, and hypercholestremia in traditional medicine. Here in this study, we evaluate the stimulatory effect of olive oil extract on oxidative burst in human neutrophils in vitro. Buffy coat w...

Circulating neutrophils of septic patients constitutively express IL-10R1 and are promptly responsive to IL-10.

Previous studies have demonstrated that neutrophils isolated from the blood of healthy donors do not respond to IL-10 in terms of either activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3) tyrosine phosphorylation or induction of suppressor of cytokine signalling (SOCS)-3 protein, unlike autologous mononuclear cells. This was explained by the fact that circulating neutrophi...

Products of neutrophils and eosinophils increase the responsiveness of human isolated bronchial tissue.

This study examines the possibility that products of neutrophils and eosinophils could increase the responsiveness of human isolated bronchial tissue. Neutrophils and eosinophils were isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers. The cells were incubated with 1 microM calcium ionophore A23187 for 10-15 min then centrifuged, the supernatant collected and stored at -70 degrees C. Huma...
