The effects of hydrophilic antioxidant carnosine, trolox (6-hydroxy-2.5.7.8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid), and superoxide dismutase on the myeloperoxidase activity of leukocytes, superoxide anion and active oxygen species generation have been studied. Physiological concentrations of carnosine have been shown to decrease the ability of human leukocytes to produce chemiluminescence as a result of myeloperoxidase activation. However, the chemiluminescence induced by the generation of the superoxide or its derivatives is unaffected by this process. Trolox does not inhibit the induction of superoxide-dependent chemiluminescence of leukocytes either.
