text Sturtevant, Faye Coleman 2011-05-07T12:18:47Z 2011-05-07T12:18:47Z 10000-01-01 1989 Neutrophil function was evaluated in vitro 24 and 48 hours after administration of a single IV dose of dexamethasone sodium phosphate (0.088 mg/kg) to adult horses. Neutrophils were separated from whole blood using a two-step Percoll gradient. Purified neutrophils from dexamethasone-treated horses had impaired ability to kill Staphylococcus aureus as compared to pretreatment and normal horse neutrophils. Neither phagocytosis, iodination, or phagosome-lysosome fusion was affected by treatment. Hydrogen peroxide production, measured both spectrophotometrically and by flow cytometry, was not affected by treatment. Lysosomal enzyme activity for alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, lysozyme, $\beta$-glucuronidase, and myeloperoxidase was quantitated and was not affected by treatment.
