RESUMO
Phagocytosis, H2O2 production, Mac-1 expression, and in vivo elimination of Listeria monocytogenes were enhanced in granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-treated mice. Transfer of polymorphonuclear leukocytes prolonged survival of mice infected with a lethal dose of L. monocytogenes. G-CSF augments the functions of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and thus plays a role in protection.
