Abstract
Objective To evaluate the oxidative metabolism of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients compared with those of hemodialysis (HD) patients, chronic renal failure (CRF) patients not yet on dialysis, and healthy controls; and to discover factors contributing to the oxidative function in CAPD patients. Patients Thirty-five CAPD, 22 HD, 11 CRF patients were assessed; all were free from infections at the time of examination. Thirty-one healthy volunteers served as controls. Methods The oxidative metabolism was estimated by the production of superoxide anion, which was detected by luminol-dependent zymosan stimulated chemiluminescence (CL) with whole blood assessment. The volume of superoxide production equivalent to 1 mL of circulating blood (T-CL), that equivalent to 104 neutrophils (CL/N) and the velocity of superoxide production (V-CL), were measured as parameters for the oxidative function of PMNL. Results There were no differences in all CL parameters between CAPD and HD patients. T -CL and CL/N of dialysis patients were equal to controls but those of CRF patients were significantly decreased. V-CL of dialysis patients, as well as CRF patients, was smaller than that of controls but the difference was not significant. Among nutritional status, degree of anemia, dialytic efficacy and duration of dialysis in CAPD patients, only serum albumin concentration (Alb) correlated well to all CL parameters. Hypoalbuminemic patients(Alb <3.6 gldL, n=20) had significantly decreased T -CL and CL/N compared to normoalbuminemic patients(Alb ?: 3.6 g/dL, n=15), and decreased CL/N and V-CL compared to controls. No differences in CL parameters were observed between the patients with a history of peritonitis (n=15) and without a history of peritonitis (n=20). Conclusions Oxidative metabolism of PMNL in CAPD patients was maintained with respect to superoxide productive volume, while the oxidative velocity was relatively impaired. Furthermore, it seems that albumin has a great influence on the oxidative metabolism of PMNL in CAPD patients.

Abstract
The presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in living organisms was described more than 60 years ago and virtually immediately it was suggested that ROS were involved in various pathological processes and aging. The state when ROS generation exceeds elimination leading to an increased steady-state ROS level has been called "oxidative stress." Although ROS association with many pathological states in animals is well established, the question of ROS responsibility for the development of these states is still open. Fish represent the largest group of vertebrates and they inhabit a broad range of ecosystems where they are subjected to many different aquatic contaminants. In many cases, the deleterious effects of contaminants have been connected to induction of oxidative stress. Therefore, deciphering of molecular mechanisms leading to such contaminant effects and organisms' response may let prevent or minimize deleterious impacts of oxidative stress. This review describes general aspects of ROS homeostasis, in particular highlighting its basic aspects, modification of cellular constituents, operation of defense systems and ROS-based signaling with an emphasis on fish systems. A brief introduction to oxidative stress theory is accompanied by the description of a recently developed classification system for oxidative stress based on its intensity and time course. Specific information on contaminant-induced oxidative stress in fish is covered in sections devoted to such pollutants as metal ions (particularly iron, copper, chromium, mercury, arsenic, nickel, etc.), pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides) and oil with accompanying pollutants. In the last section, certain problems and perspectives in studies of oxidative stress in fish are described.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) initially considered as only damaging agents in living organisms further were found to play positive roles also. This paper describes ROS homeostasis, principles of their investigation and technical approaches to investigate ROS-related processes. Especial attention is paid to complications related to experimental documentation of these processes, their diversity, spatiotemporal distribution, relationships with physiological state of the organisms. Imbalance between ROS generation and elimination in favor of the first with certain consequences for cell physiology has been called "oxidative stress". Although almost 30years passed since the first definition of oxidative stress was introduced by Helmut Sies, to date we have no accepted classification of oxidative stress. In order to fill up this gape here classification of oxidative stress based on its intensity is proposed. Due to that oxidative stress may be classified as basal oxidative stress (BOS), low intensity oxidative stress (LOS), intermediate intensity oxidative stress (IOS), and high intensity oxidative stress (HOS). Another classification of potential interest may differentiate three categories such as mild oxidative stress (MOS), temperate oxidative stress (TOS), and finally severe (strong) oxidative stress (SOS). Perspective directions of investigations in the field include development of sophisticated classification of oxidative stresses, accurate identification of cellular ROS targets and their arranged responses to ROS influence, real in situ functions and operation of so-called "antioxidants", intracellular spatiotemporal distribution and effects of ROS, deciphering of molecular mechanisms responsible for cellular response to ROS attacks, and ROS involvement in realization of normal cellular functions in cellular homeostasis.

Abstract
Persistent and severe fatigue is a common part of the presentation of a diverse range of disease processes. There is a growing body of evidence indicating a common inflammatory pathophysiology underlying many conditions where fatigue is a primary patient concern, including chronic fatigue syndrome. This review explores current models of how inflammatory mediators act on the central nervous system to produce fatigue and sickness behaviour, and the commonality of these processes in conditions as diverse as surgical trauma, infection, various cancers, inflammatory bowel disease, connective tissue diseases and autoimmune diseases. We also discuss evidence indicating chronic fatigue syndrome may have important pathophysiological similarities with cytokine mediated sickness behaviour, and what lessons can be applied from sickness behaviour to chronic fatigue syndrome with regards to the diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), an inherited disorder of phagocytic cells, often contract recurrent life-threatening bacterial and fungal infections. CGD is considered to arise from a functional defect of the O(2)-generating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase in phagocytes. To determine whether or not NADPH oxidase is crucial to the host defence against Mycobacterium avium, we investigated the response against M. avium using CGD model mice (gp91-phox(-)) of C57BL/6 strain. A tracheal injection of 1 x 10(7) colony-forming units (CFU)/head of M. avium strain FN into the CGD mice resulted in a pulmonary infection, while also increasing the mortality rate. In contrast, normal C57BL/6 mice injected with same dose of the organisms did not develop severe pulmonary infection and were able to survive through 2 months of observation. The macrophages obtained from the CGD mice were observed to have a higher burden of the bacterial growth than macrophages from normal C57BL/6 mice. These results suggest that the defect of the NADPH oxidase function impairs the host defence against M. avium infection.

Abstract
We compared the immune defense of mice with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD mice) with that of wild-type C57BL/6 mice for their response to Sporothrix schenckii. A subcutaneous injection of 5 x 10(4) CFU S. schenckii strain IFM41598 into CGD mice resulted in systemic infection and death within 84 days. In contrast, injected C57BL/6 mice did not develop systemic infection and were able to survive through 100 days of observation. Differences in host resistance were analyzed in vitro. Neutrophils and macrophages obtained from CGD mice were found to allow greater growth of this organism than did those obtained from C57BL/6 mice. Moreover, macrophages obtained from immunized CGD mice were able to simply inhibit the growth of this fungus whereas macrophages obtained from immunized C57BL/6 mice killed the fungus within 48 h after phagocytosis. These results suggest that (i) the lack of NADPH oxidase function is a risk factor for lethal S. schenckii infection and (ii) superoxide anion and its reactive oxidative metabolites produced by neutrophils and macrophages are involved in fungistatic and fungicidal activities.

Abstract
Peritoneal macrophages were collected from juvenile turtles 72h after intraperitoneal inoculation with a 3% Sephadex suspension. The macrophages were assayed for their chemiluminescent (CL) properties, reflecting their respiratory burst activity, after stimulation with Zymosan A, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), and calcium ionophore A23187. Except for fMLP, all triggering agents induced a marked CL response. Luminol was used as the chemiluminescent probe. When comparing CL responses in temperatures ranging from 15 to 35 degrees C, lower assay temperatures induced lower and slower CL responses. Stimulation with viable Salmonella muenchen resulted in a distinct response. Bacteria, inactivated by means of heat or acetone, induced a faster and stronger oxidative burst. Opsonization of either viable or heat-inactivated S. muenchen with non-inactivated anti-S. muenchen serum, prepared in turtles, induced faster and higher CL responses. On the other hand, opsonization of acetone-inactivated S. muenchen caused CL responses to be slower and weaker. S. muenchen, opsonized with heat-inactivated turtle anti S. muenchen serum, induced higher responses than non-opsonized bacteria, but slower and weaker responses than bacteria opsonized with native turtle antiserum. No response was recorded after stimulation with LPS and the supernatant of heat-inactivated bacteria.

Abstract
Chemiluminescence (CL) was used to investigate the competence of turkey monocytes to mount a respiratory burst response upon interaction with Chlamydia psittaci. The oxidative activity of purified turkey monocytes, following inoculation with the avian C. psittaci serovar D strain 92/1293, was studied using luminol- and lucigenin-enhanced CL. Purified turkey monocytes were inoculated with C. psittaci at multiplicity of infection (MOI) of approximately 100, 10 and 1. In the presence of luminol, no detectable CL or only a weak CL response was obtained, and if present it increased with increasing MOI. Either sham inoculated monocytes, or monocyte-free control assays supplemented with C. psittaci, gave no detectable luminol-enhanced CL responses. In the lucigenin-enhanced assays, monocytes inoculated with C. psittaci demonstrated an immediate CL peak, the height of which was proportional to the MOI used. Following inoculations at a MOI 1, a faint second peak was observed, when applying high concentrations of lucigenin. Sham inoculated monocytes gave no detectable lucigenin-enhanced CL responses. However, in the presence of lucigenin, the addition of C psittaci to monocyte-free controls also resulted in an immediate CL peak, though no second peak was detected. This immediate lucigenin-dependent CL peak induced by C. psittaci was similar to the one observed in the presence of monocytes, and was not inhibited by superoxide dismutase. We demonstrated that this avian C. psittaci strain induces only a very weak respiratory burst response in turkey monocytes. In contrast, C. psittaci itself elicited an intense non-superoxide mediated lucigenin-dependent CL, indicating that in chlamydial research the detection of superoxide, using lucigenin, should be confirmed with a specific superoxide inhibitor.

Abstract
The influence of different induction protocols on the recovery of elicited turkey respiratory macrophages (RM), and on their oxygenation activity and nitric oxide (NO) production was examined. RM were induced in three week old specific pathogen free turkeys with Sephadex G-50, Thioglycollate broth, and an emulsion of incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA), supplemented either with Mycoplasma hyorhinis grown in Modified Channock broth (IFA-M. hyorhinis) or with Modified Channock broth (IFA-Broth). The RM were recovered by lavage of the lungs and air sacs and were purified by centrifugation through a Percoll suspension. Their oxygenation activity was evaluated in luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence assays, following stimulation with Zymosan A. The NO production was evaluated by incubating the RM with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Salmonella enteritidis for 24 or 48 hours. The number of recovered RM was slightly, but not significantly lower for Sephadex G-50 and IFA-Broth than for Thioglycollate broth and IFA-M. hyorhinis. RM elicited with Sephadex G-50 and IFA-Broth showed a significantly higher oxidative burst response to Zymosan A, compared to the Thioglycollate and IFA-M. hyorhinis elicited RM. Although all elicited RM showed a high NO production upon stimulation with LPS, no significant differences were seen in the NO production of the RM obtained following the different induction treatments. Our results point out that care should be taken when applying elicited RM for in vitro assays, as distinct levels of oxygenation activity were obtained using different induction protocols.

Abstract
The effects of TNT metabolites on the generation of activated oxygen species was investigated by a sensitive luminol-dependent chemiluminescence (CL) assay. Spleen cell suspensions containing 2,4-diaminotoluene, 2,4,6-triaminotoluene, 2-amino-6-nitrotoluene, 4-amino-3,5-dinitrotoluene and 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene were stimulated with zymosan. Aminotoluenes and amino-nitrotoluenes induced a dose-dependent inhibition of CL response. The mixed substituted toluenes generally required higher doses than aminotoluenes for the suppression of CL response which was not due to the cytotoxic reduction of cell viability. CL appears to be a well-suited assay for determination of the immunotoxic potential of diverse molecules on phagocytic cells of the immune system.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine whether polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) can modify the immune response in HIV cases. Supernatants of PMN (PMNS) from 33 HIV-infected patients (16 with lymphoadenopathy syndrome, 17 with AIDS-related complex) were tested for their influence on the functional activity of lymphocytes and monocytes from 6 healthy donors. PMNS from another 6 healthy donors comprised a control group. It was found that PMNS from HIV-infected patients, but not from healthy donors, induced suppression of lymphocyte proliferative response and down-regulation of CD8 receptor expression on lymphocytes. Decrease of NK-cell cytotoxicity in the presence of PMNS from HIV-infected patients was the same as that from healthy donors. PMNS did not influence the production of anti-HIV antibody by lymphocytes from HIV-infected patients, as well as non-specific IgG by lymphocytes from healthy donors. PMNS effect on functional activity of lymphocytes was blocked completely after treatment of PMN by catalase and superoxide dismutase. At the same time PMNS from HIV-infected patients but not from healthy donors induced increased production of TNF-alpha by monocytes and up-regulation of monocyte phagocytosis. These effects were independent of catalase and superoxide dismutase and were not abrogated by antibody against IL-1, IL-8, TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma or IFN-alpha.

Abstract
Free radicals and other reactive oxygen species are constantly formed in the human body. Many of them serve useful physiological functions, but they can be toxic when generated in excess and this toxicity is often aggravated by the presence of ions of such transition metals as iron or copper. Excess generation of reactive oxygen species within tissues can damage DNA, lipids, proteins and carbohydrates. Which of these is the most important target of damage depends upon the cell type subjected to the oxidative stress and upon how it is imposed.

Abstract
In unseparated human blood the Cu2Zn2 superoxide dismutase mimetic reactivity of several differently coordinated low Mr copper chelates on TPA-activated polymorphonuclear leukocytes was evaluated and compared to their apo-chelates, CuSO4, and the native enzyme. Similar to intact superoxide dismutase, 350-400 nM Cu flexibly complexed in a di-Schiff base mode in CuPu(Py)2 and CuPu(Im)2, respectively, was sufficient to inhibit the oxidative burst-dependent superoxide production of human blood phagocytes by 50%. Acetate- or biuret-type copper chelates behaved like CuSO4. The catalytic superoxide dismuting reactivity of the di-Schiff base active center analogs of SOD was confirmed using isolated porcine PMNs. Even in the presence of 600 microM albumin as a model for competitive copper chelation in biological fluids CuPu(Py)2 and CuPu(Im)2 remained active. The stability during the Cu(I)/Cu(II) redox cycling was demonstrated in the presence of activated PMNs and albumin, taking advantage of the electron paramagnetic properties of CuPu(Py)2 and CuPu(Im)2.
