[Effect of neutrophils on the state of lipid peroxidation in the erythrocytes and its physiological significance].

Theoretical grounds of the existence (in the organism) of physiological process of the neutrophil granulocyte-erythrocyte interaction are presented. This process underlies damage and destruction of old erythrocytes. A conclusion is made concerning the peroxide mechanism of this interaction. This process possibly takes place under physiological conditions and becomes more pronounced after splenectomy .
