  • Title: Increased oxygen radical production determined by whole blood chemiluminescence in patients with previous Yersinia arthritis.
    Author: Ristola M.
    Journal: APMIS; 1990 Feb; 98(2):125-30. PubMed ID: 2302347.
    Abstract:
    Luminol-dependent whole blood chemiluminescence (CL) was studied in patients with previous yersinia arthritis (YA). Patients showed significantly higher CL responses compared to healthy controls regardless of HLA-B27 antigen when either N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or opsonized zymosan particles were used a stimulus. This hyperreactivity may well play a role in the development of inflammatory injury in YA.
