Highly attenuated poxviruses induce functional priming of neutrophils in vitro
Abstract
Highly attenuated poxvirus samples were used to examine the influence of potential poxvirus expression vector systems on neutrophil function. Exposure to the viruses alters the number of membrane bound complement-and Fc gamma-receptors and led to functional priming of neutrophils to subsequent stimuli.
