[Arachidonic acid-induced aggregation of human peripheral blood neutrophils in the presence of interceptors of active forms of oxygen].

Arachidonate-induced aggregation of human peripheral blood neutrophils and the influence of certain interreceptors of oxygen active forms (OAF) on its rate were studied. The results obtained have shown that OAF play an important role in the processes of interaction between arachidonate and leucocytes. Regulation of the process of leucocyte aggregation may be realized during arachidonate-induced aggregation of neutrophils, due to interaction of cell-generated OAF with arachidonic acid and its lipoxygenase metabolites.
