书目名称 | The Respiratory Burst and Its Physiological Significance | 编辑 | Anthony J. Sbarra,Robert R. Strauss | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | When phagocytes are exposed to a number of different stimuli, they undergo dra matic changes in the way they process oxygen. Oxygen uptake increases markedly, frequently more than 50-fold; the phagocytes begin to produce large quantities of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide; and they immediately begin to metabolize large amounts of glucose by way of the hexose monophosphate shunt. This series of changes has become known as the respiratory burst. It was first believed that the major function of this respiratory burst was to generate powerful antibacterial agents by the partial reduction of oxygen. It is becoming apparent that the respiratory burst has much wider application, and its physiological function in many different biolog ical areas is clear. In this volume, we have attempted to bring together the work of experts who have published extensively on the involvement of the respiratory burst in different physiological functions. In the first three chapters, Dr. Borregaard and Dr. Berton and co-workers and Dr. Roos and co-workers bring together what is known about the respiratory burst. They present up-to-date versions of the biochemical and metabolic activities associ ated with | 出版日期 | Book 1988 | 关键词 | Calcium; DNA; EPO; Fructose; Nucleotide; Oxidation; bacteria; development; enzymes; growth; homeostasis; metabo | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-5496-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-5498-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-5496-3 | copyright | Plenum Press, New York 1988 |
