Production of interleukin-1 like activity by neutrophils derived from rat lung.

Y Kusaka 1, K Donaldson 1
PMCID: PMC473773  PMID: 2141440

Abstract

Interleukin-1 like activity was produced by neutrophils obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage from experimentally inflamed rat lung. Activity was released spontaneously from neutrophils at high levels but it was enhanced by stimulation with endotoxin in vitro.
