Chemiluminescence response of cervine neutrophils to various stimuli.
The chemiluminescence response of cervine neutrophils to various stimuli was investigated in comparison with that of bovine and human homologues. The cervine cells showed a strong and consistent response, as observed in other species, to opsonized zymosan, phorbol myristate acetate and concanavalin A. The cells, however, like bovine homologues, failed to respond to n-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine which is a potent stimulant of human neutrophils.
