To the Editor.— Such phagocytic cells as neutrophils and macrophages are crucial elements in the host defense against bacterial [See table in the PDF file] and fungal infections. Microbicidal activity depends to a large extent on NADPH oxidase system, which can be activated by stimuli (bacteria, fungi) and which generates the superoxide anion and other highly reactive forms of reduced oxygen.1,2 The neutrophil NADPH oxidase system is composed functionally of membrane-bound catalytic components (which consist of at least two constituents, the low potential cytochrome b5583-5 and flavoprotein5) and soluble cytosolic components6,7 which participate as either catalytic or regulatory elements.
