FUNCTIONAL ACTIVITY OF NEUTROPHILS IN CHRONIC RECURRENT FURUNCULOSIS

https://doi.org/10.15789/1563-0625-2014-1-81-88

Abstract

Functional characteristics of neutrophils were evaluated in fifty-two patients with severe form of
chronic recurrent furunculosis, i.e., intensity of oxygen- and nitric oxide production, apoptosis rates, NET-
forming properties, as well as phagocytic and bactericidal capacity. We have detected reduced efficiency of
intracellular pathogen killing, accompanied by a suppression of oxygen- and nitric oxide-producing reserve of
neutrophils. A compensatory increase in functional reserve of NET formation activity was also revealed, thus
being a potential extracellular bactericidal mechanism for neutrophils. At the time of the disease exacerbation,
we have found a decreased readiness for both spontaneous and stimulated neutrophil apoptosis.
