title: [Demonstration of new substances released during acute inflammatory processes].
abstract: Various acute inflammatory reactions modify effector and immunoregulatory functions of neutrophils, macrophages and lymphocytes locally as well as at distance from the inflammatory focus. Non-specific defenses are augmented concomitantly. These phenomena have been related to low molecular weight peptides called phlogokines. These findings may contribute to a better knowledge of the inflammatory process, while phlogokines may be of potential therapeutic value.
