abstract：:Neutrophilic granulocytes (PMN) are attracted to sites of inflammation by chemotactic factors, the most potent of which are the complement split product C5a, the leukotriene B4 and the bacterial chemotactic factor-related tripeptide formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP). In addition to inducing directed migrati...
