Respiratory Burst of Human Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes in Response to the Galactoside-specific Mistletoe Lectin

The phagocytic activity of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) towards Staphylococcus aureus Cowan 1 was evaluated in chemiluminescence assays. As to check its activating ability, galactoside-specific mistletoe lectin (ML-1) was coincubated with PMNLs which were then challenged with S. aureus...
