High basal production of primary active oxygen forms was detected in the peripheral blood neutrophils of patients with renal cell cancer. In vitro stimulation of neutrophils led to more rapid release of superoxide radicals into extracellular space and to a reduction of cell capacity to more intense production of primary active oxygen forms.
