N-Formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (F-MLP)-induced chemotaxis and luminolamplified chemiluminescence were studied in isolated human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) and exposed to acrylonitrile (ACN) in vitro. Chemotaxis was reduced at ACN concentrations of 3 mm and above, while respiratory burst was affected at ACN concentrations of 18mm and above. The ACN concentrations were highly correlated both with decreased chemotactic activity (r = 0.75; P < 0.05) and with decreased respiratory burst (r = 0.93; P < 0.01).
