Abstract excerpt
Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity and oxidative burst were measured in neutrophils and monocytes from five, hemizygous, G6PD-deficient (Mediterranean variant) individuals and five normal controls. Additionally, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interleukin-12 (I...
