The aim of this study was to characterize the effects of rebamipide on the oxidative burst of human neutrophils. The neutrophil oxidative burst was measured in the presence of rebamipide and cimetidine using lucigenin- or luminol-dependent chemiluminescence (LgCL or LmCL). Rebamipide inhibited the L...
