Differences in the effects of two hexa-chlorophenols on superoxide generation by polymorphonuclear leucocytes stimulated by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine and phorbol myristate acetate.

Abstract

JDifferences in the effects of two hexachlorophenols on superoxide generation by polymorphonuclear leucocytes stimulated by N-formyl-methionylleucyl-phenylaianine and phorbol Myristate acetate Editor-Recently Iwata et al presented a paper on the effects of hexachlorobiphenyls on production of the superoxide anion stimulated by agonists in polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Bearing in mind what is known about the production of the superoxide anion in this system, some additional points can be made.
