Abstract

We report that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) provokes superoxide anion generation from human neutrophils. Superoxide anion generation was provoked at TNF concentration of 1 X 10(-11) M and maximal generation was attained at TNF concentration of 1 X 10(-9) M. We also show that movements of intracellular calcium may mediate the TNF-stimulated superoxide anion generation because 8-(diethylamino) octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate hydrochloride--but not extracellular EGTA--inhibited the generation of superoxide anion. These results suggest that TNF may mediate some mechanisms of host defense by provoking superoxide anion generation from neutrophils.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
