Effects of OK-432 and/or Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (NCWS) on superoxide generation from polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) were studied by the new method of Cypridana luciferin analog-dependent chemiluminescence. Superoxide generation from the rat peritoneal PMN stimulated by phorbol myrista...
