Selectively Induced Apoptosis in Human Neutrophils in the Presence of Oxidative Phenoxazines, 2-Amino-4,4α-dihydryo-4α-7H-phenoxazine-3-one and 2-Aminophenoxazine-3-one, Preceded by Decrease of Intracellular pH, Depolarization of the Mitochondria, and Inhibition of Superoxide Generation

Abstract.: The present research investigated the effect of the oxidative phenoxazines, 2-amino-4,4α-dihydryo-4α-7H-phenoxazine-3-one (Phx-1) and 2-amino-phenoxazine-3-one (Phx-3) on apoptosis induction and apoptosis-related early events in human neutrophils. When Phx-1 or Phx-3 was administered to f...
