  • Title: Enhancement of formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine-induced directional locomotion of human neutrophils by serum low-density lipoproteins.
    Author: Naef A, Waelti ER, Glueck R, Hess MW, Keller H.
    Journal: Immunol Lett; 1982 Jul; 5(1):1-5. PubMed ID: 7118182.
    Abstract:
    Human low-density lipoproteins (LDL) significantly increased neutrophil locomotion in a gradient of the chemotactic peptide formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP), while LDL alone had no effect on either directional or random locomotion. The enhancing effect on directional locomotion was constantly observed at FMLP concentrations of 10(-8) M and 5 X 10(-8) M after addition of 50 microgram LDL/ml.
