Interactions between NADPH oxidase-related proton and electron currents in human eosinophils

What is it about?

Human eosinophils are shown to have thrice larger electron currents than neutrophils, consistent with their higher rate of superoxide production. We present evidence that there is a single type of proton channel before and after stimulation with PMA, and that the reported enhanced Zn2+ sensitivity of proton channels in activated cells is an artifact.
