Oxidative and adhesive responses of human neutrophils to nitrovasodilators in vitro: the role of protein kinases

Background: Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and molsidomine are used in the treatment of coronary heart disease. Since the neutrophils play a pathological role in ischaemic heart disease, it is important to understand the direct action of nitrovasodilators on their function.
