β¦ Synopsis
The effects of gliadin and glyc-gli on leukocyte chemiluminescence response were assessed in vitro. A dose-dependent increase in chemiluminescence response of neutrophils stimulated by zymosan was observed by using gliadin at concentrations ranging between 1 and 20 pg. By increasing glyc-gli concentration, a bimodal response was observed with an enhancement up t o 50 pg/ml, followed by suppressive effects, which were again dose-dependent. The possible implications of these findings in human pathology are discussed.
