We have studied an indirect role of serine and thiol proteases in the activation of human neutrophils in vitro. Stimulation was evaluated using a chemiluminescence (CL) generation system. Receptor-dependent and receptor-independent stimuli were studied, e.g. opsonized zymosan, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, platelet activating
