title: Chemiluminescence response of cervine neutrophils to various stimuli.
abstract: 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.
