A Novel Tetrapeptide Derivative Exhibits In Vitro Inhibition of Neutrophil-Derived Reactive Oxygen Species and Lysosomal Enzymes Release

Figure 3

Effect of PEP1261 on myocardial infarct rat neutrophils lysosomal release. All values are mean ± SD ( ). Acid phosphatase activity was expressed as μmoles of p-nitrophenol liberated/h/mg protein. Cathepsin D activity was expressed as μmoles of tyrosine liberated/h/mg protein. NS = nonsignificant as compared to control; * as compared to control; # as compared to PMA stimulated cells; as compared to rat myocardial infarct cells.
