Cell kinetics during inflammation.
This communication deals with the production and kinetics of mononuclear phagocytes and polymorphonuclear phagocytes in the normal steady state and during an acute inflammatory reaction and with the humoral regulation of the increased production of leucocytes during an inflammatory reaction. The effect of hydrocortisone and azathioprine on both kinds of phagocytic cells is also discussed.
