The chemiluminescence of isolated neutrophils, stimulated with N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine, latex, lipopolysaccharide from Escherichia coli, zymosan A, or 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate was inhibited up to 99% by the dose-dependent oxygen radical scavenging activity of 6 mmol/l ascorbic acid. The chemiluminescence of neutrophils in blood, stimulated with 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate, or with zymosan A was inhibited 35% or 48%, respectively, by 6 mmol/l ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid, up to 6 mmol/l, did not inhibit the release of beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase and elastase from isolated neutrophils activated by the above stimulatory agents. During neutrophil/nylon fibre interaction ascorbic acid reduced the oxygen radical production dose-dependently (77% inhibition of the chemiluminescence response at 6 mmol/l ascorbic acid), whereas the adherence was unaffected. Hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase-generated oxygen radicals were scavenged by ascorbic acid in a dose-dependent manner (99% inhibition of the chemiluminescence response at 100 mumol/l ascorbic acid). From these results, ascorbic acid can highly be recommended for animal experiments and clinical studies in patients with trauma, shock and sepsis and for studies to prevent or reduce reperfusion injuries.
