The in vitro action of hydrocortisone on leucocyte migration

M M KETCHEL et al. J Exp Med. .

Abstract

Hydrocortisone inhibits the ameboid migration of human leucocytes when added in vitro. The dose-response curve for the reaction between this steroid and leucocytes can be best expressed by a logarithmic plot of the steroid concentrations. Tetrahydrocortisone and desoxycorticosterone had no effect on in vitro leucotyte migration.
