PG - 31-6 AB - Addition of micromolar concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to human neutrophils resulted in a dose-dependent luminol-enhanced chemiluminescent response. Pretreatment of neutrophils with micromolar concentrations of H2O2 altered their response to the surface acting stimulants serum-treated zymosan (STZ) and formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), but not to the intracellular stimulant phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). The alterations were partially reversible by catalase, but exacerbated by superoxide dismutase. These results suggest a modulatory role for H2O2 in the respiratory burst of neutrophils.
