Respiratory burst. Shortly after phagocytosing material neutrophils undergo a burst of activity. During this time the cells increase their oxygen consumption. This is associated with increased activity of the hexose monophosphate shunt and production of H202 and O2. 3, record 1, English, - respiratory%20burst

Le terme d'activation métabolique respiratoire («respiratory burst») englobe une série de réactions oxydatives en chaîne déclenchée par une stimulation appropriée de la membrane des phagocytes et caractérisée par une augmentation quasi instantanée et importante de la consommation d'oxygène, un accroissement considérable du catabolisme du glucose par la voie des hexoses monophosphates et la génération de radicaux libres dérivés de l'oxygène [...] 1, record 1, French, - stimulation%20du%20m%C3%A9tabolisme%20oxydatif
