Chemiluminescence production by neutrophils and immune complex levels in cancer patients

We studied the production of chemiluminescence (CL) by peripheral blood neutrophils from 24 normal subjects, 13 lung cancer patients with clinical stages (CS) III and IV, and 27 breast cancer patients with CS II, III, and IV. Evaluations were made before chemo- and radiotherapy treatments. CL was ex...
