## Abstract The enzymatic basis of the respiratory burst induced by phorbol myristate acetate in elicited peritoneal macrophages of the guineaβpig has been studied. The following evidence suggests that a membraneβbound oxidase that preferentially uses NADPH as substrate is the main enzyme responsib

## Abstract The chemiluminescence (CL) response of guinea pig peritoneal macrophages to immune precipitates and soluble immune complexes has been investigated. The rapid burst of intense light emission observed in response to both stimuli, was inhibited by superoxide dismutase (SOD). With soluble i
Earlier studies have indicated that Clq, the first subcomponent of complement component C1, is bound to lymphocytes via specific C l q receptor sites. We have recently shown that adherent guinea pig peritoneal exudate macrophages express specific receptors for Clq (Veerhuis, R. et al., Immunology 19
