title: Molecular basis of activation and regulation of the phagocyte respiratory burst.
abstract: The molecular basis of activation and regulation of the phagocyte respiratory burst is discussed with particular reference to the role of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, guanine nucleotide coupling proteins, and activation of protein kinase C.
