Effect of antibiotics of chemotaxis of human leukocytes

A Forsgren et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 1977 Apr.

Abstract

The effect of 20 different antibiotics on chemotaxis by human neutrophils was studied. Human leukocytes incubated with chloramphenicol, rifampin, sodium fusidate, and tetracyclines in vitro showed markedly depressed migration. The mechanisms by which these antibiotics affect leukotaxis are discussed.
