| Abstract: | We investigated N-formyl-Methionyl-Leucyl-Phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced chemotaxis of neutrophils with different densities. FMLP-induced (10(-8)M) chemotaxis of neutrophils with lower density were significantly reduced when compared to neutrophils with higher density (p less than 0.05). These findings imply a relationship between the neutrophil density and chemotaxis. |
