Abstract: | The intracellular pH (pHi) of mouse peritoneal neutrophils, initially 0.2 U, drops after a 15-min incubation of these cells with a peptide extract
of fetal brain tissue. Treatment with the preparation leads to appreciable changes in the distribution of neutrophils by the
examined parameter. For macrophages, the acidifying effect of the agent and its effect on the pattern of cell distribution
in terms of pH values are far less expressed. The effects of the agent in dilutions 1∶102 and 1∶104 on the mean pHi are virtually the same.
