Human alveolar macrophages (AM) were demonstrated t o generate reactive toxic derivatives of oxygen in many pulmonary disorders. These cells are involved in local inflammation which characterizes bronchial asthma. In the present work, we studied the ability of stimulated macrophages from healthy vol
## Abstract We examined the role of the monovalent cations Na^+^ and K^+^ in the events encompassing the release of O by alveolar macrophages after stimulation with formyl methionyl phenylalanine (FMP). This was accomplished by determining the effect of changing the extracellular [Na^+^] and/or [K^
