Influence of somatostatin on peripheral leucocyte count and granulation tissue in man and rats. 1977

E Zierden, and K Hengst, and H Wagner

Subcutaneous injection of synthetic protamin-zink-somatostatin completely prevents endotoxin-induced leucocytosis in normal rats. Piromen-induced elevated stab neutrophil, neutrophil and monocyte counts remain within the normal range during somatostatin administration. There is an inhibiting effect of synthetic protamin-zink-somatostatin on the wet weights of granulation tissue of cotton pellet granulomata, too. Incorporation of 35S-sulfate in sulfated mucopolysaccharides of granulation tissue in cotton pellet granulomata is not inhibited. Intravenous administration of synthetic linear somatostatin decreases stab neutrophil and neutrophil blood count in patients with acute bacterial leucocytosis. After the termination of somatostatin infusion a rebound phenomenon occurs. In healthy subjects lymphocyte count increases during somatostatin infusion. This effect can not be demonstrated in patients with bacterial leucocytosis.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS. Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell

D006025 Glycosaminoglycans Heteropolysaccharides which contain an N-acetylated hexosamine in a characteristic repeating disaccharide unit. The repeating structure of each disaccharide involves alternate 1,4- and 1,3-linkages consisting of either N-acetylglucosamine (see ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE) or N-acetylgalactosamine (see ACETYLGALACTOSAMINE).
