Dieldrin induces human neutrophil superoxide production via protein kinases C and tyrosine kinases
We have recently found that dieldrin is a potent human neutrophil agonist in vitro and induces neutrophilic inflammation in vivo. Among the responses observed in vitro, dieldrin was found to induce superoxide (O2-) production by a yet unknown mechanism ...
