Descriptor English: Respiratory Burst
Descriptor Spanish: Estallido Respiratorio
Descriptor estimulación oxidativa
Entry term(s) estallido oxidativo
Scope note: Gran incremento de captación de oxigeno por los neutrófilos y la mayoría de los macrófagos tisulares, provocado por la activación de una oxidasa dependiente de NADPH-citocromo b, que reduce el oxígeno a superóxido. Las personas que tienen un defecto hereditario con reducción o ausencia de la oxidasa que reduce el oxígeno a superóxido (ENFERMEDAD GRANULOMATOSA CRÓNICA) a menudo fallecen como consecuencia de infecciones bacterianas recurrentes.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016897
Scope note: A large increase in oxygen uptake by neutrophils and most types of tissue macrophages through activation of an NADPH-cytochrome b-dependent oxidase that reduces oxygen to a superoxide. Individuals with an inherited defect in which the oxidase that reduces oxygen to superoxide is decreased or absent (GRANULOMATOUS DISEASE, CHRONIC) often die as a result of recurrent bacterial infections.
