Abstract

In vitro pretreatment with Met-Enk of human PMNLs obtained from patients suffering from type-2 diabetes mellitus resulted in the normalization of the ROS generating system. It is assumed that Met-Enk has a modulating effect on the arachidonic acid metabolism, with a consecutive increase of the LTB4 release.
