**Summary** Plasma osteocalcin, a marker of osteoblastic activity, decreases after major abdominal and gynaecological surgery. Increased cortisol secretion and other hormonal and inflammatory components of the periβoperative stress response may play a role in mediating this response. Weβ£assessed the
When polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) and soluble or particulate matter interact, the cells produce superoxide anions (02-) and hydrogen peroxide (H202). The chemotactic peptide formylmethionyl-leucylphenylalanine (FMLP) induced a very weak response in normal neutrophils. The cellular resp
