Abstract
The stimulation of neutrophils by formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine results in a bimodal luminol-dependent chemiluminescence pattern. We observed, however, only a single peak chemiluminescence pattern in the response to the peptide when we used lucigenin as an amplifying substance. We suggest that lucigenin, the larger molecule, (510 daltons; luminol is 177 daltons) only exerts an extracellular effect.Entities:
