In the first part of our work (1) it was found that the cultivation of blood of sensitized people and animals with specific allergen (AI) caused the phenomenon of specific inhibition stimulated luminol-dependent chemiluminescence of leukocytes (PhSISCL). In the current study the mechanism of this inhibition was investigated. It was revealed that PhSISCL resulted from the direct influence of AI on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL). The activity of NADPH-dependent oxidase was established by the Wymann M. et al. method (2). It was determined that the values of chemiluminescence (CL) for the cultivation of sensitized rabbit blood with specific AI did not differ from the control. This demonstrated that the activity of NADPH-oxidase was not inhibited. On these grounds it is possible to assume that PhSISCL is connected to either the inhibition of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity or to a release of this ferment from PMNL during cultivation. The latter was specifically investigated and was not confirmed.

D009195	Peroxidase	A hemeprotein from leukocytes. Deficiency of this enzyme leads to a hereditary disorder coupled with disseminated moniliasis. It catalyzes the conversion of a donor and peroxide to an oxidized donor and water. EC 1.11.1.7.	Myeloperoxidase,Hemi-Myeloperoxidase,Hemi Myeloperoxidase
D009247	NADH, NADPH Oxidoreductases	A group of oxidoreductases that act on NADH or NADPH. In general, enzymes using NADH or NADPH to reduce a substrate are classified according to the reverse reaction, in which NAD+ or NADP+ is formally regarded as an acceptor. This subclass includes only those enzymes in which some other redox carrier is the acceptor. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992, p100) EC 1.6.

D009249	NADP	Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-phosphate (NMN) coupled by pyrophosphate linkage to the 5'-phosphate adenosine 2',5'-bisphosphate. It serves as an electron carrier in a number of reactions, being alternately oxidized (NADP+) and reduced (NADPH).
