“…We show that myeloid cells from CGD patients are relatively resistant to the growth-inhibitory action mediated by TNJ?. CGD is a congenital disorder in which phagocytes cannot generate superoxide because of deficiency in any one of at least four components of the superoxide-generating enzyme, NADPH oxidase (Curnutte et al, 1974(Curnutte et al, , 1975Hohn & Lehrer, 1975: Smith & Curnutte, 1991. Pioneering studies in a number of laboratories demonstrated that NADPH oxidase was inactive in unstiiulated celks; but when the cells were stimulated the enzyme was located exclusively on the cellular plasma membrane (Briggs et al, 1977: Dewald et al, 1978.…”

“…CGD is caused by a defect in any one of four NADPH oxidase components, gp91-phox. p22-phox, p47-phox and p67-phox (Smith & Curnutte, 1991). We present evidence that cytotoxicity of TNF is mediated, at least in part, through production of superoxide, and haemopoietic cells from CGD patients are relatively resistant to the growth inhibitory action of TNF.…”

“…The effects of OxPAPC on oxidative burst are important in the context of infectious diseases as oxidative burst is crucial for optimal bacterial killing [4]. Indeed, patients with defects in the NADPH oxidase complex, exhibit chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), which is associated with recurrent bacterial and fungal infections [54].…”

“…This non-mitochondrial O 2 consumption process is known as the respiratory burst. Reactive O 2 species produced during the respiratory burst are believed to serve as bactericidal agents, as evinced by the susceptibility of patients with chronic granulomatous disease to serve recurrent infections (Smith & Curnutte, 1991). Under certain circumstances, the excessive or inappropriate release of these highly reactive O 2 species can result in undesirable tissue damage.…”
