The Phagocyte Function during Multifactorial Military Stress and Neuroendocrine Interactions with Phagocytes

Abstract

The huminal-amplified chemiluminescence response of granulocytes to serum opsonized zymosan particles ex vivo, was investigated during a ranger training course lasting for 7 days with continuous strenuous physical activities, calorie and sleep deprivation. A priming for accentuated chemiluminescence response was observed during the first days the course with a maximum increase on Day 3 (+ 35 % of control levels). Thereafter, a reduction to below control values was observed, minimum value was observed on Day 7 (-28 %).
