Tigecycline achieves high intracellular concentrations in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). To evaluate the effects of tigecycline on human PMNs, PMNs were incubated with tigecycline dilutions (0.1 to 100 mg L-1). Phagocytosis-associated PMN Fcγ- and complement receptors as well as phagocytosis and oxidative burst induced by
