Superoxide anion (O,-) production by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and monocytes (MN) was measured in the peripheral blood of 70 patients with lung cancer. The 0,-production by these cells was decreased in many, but not all, patients. The incidence of patients with lower 0,-production increased
Treatment of circulating human neutrophils with recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) for 30 min augmented superoxide generation and chemotaxis induced by N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) in a dose dependent manner. When neutrophils were treated with 1 pM of
