Neutrophil chemotaxis and random migration were studied in 65 healthy children and 18 normal adults. The method used, the leading-front technique, was more accurate and reproducible than the lower surface count method. Chemotaxis in children under 15 years differed from that in adults. This age effect was most pronounced in those less than 6 years, and particularly in those less than 2 years. When investigating chemotaxis in childhood, comparisons with age-matched controls should be made.
对65名健康儿童和18名正常成年人的中性粒细胞趋化性和随机迁移进行了研究。所采用的前沿技术比低表面计数法更准确且可重复。15岁以下儿童的趋化性与成年人不同。这种年龄效应在6岁以下儿童中最为明显,尤其是在2岁以下儿童中。在研究儿童期趋化性时,应与年龄匹配的对照组进行比较。
