Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis phospholipase D (PLD) significantly affected viability of ovine neutrophils after 24 hours' exposure, This effect was more marked in cells that ingested PLD emulsified in oil. Treatment of neutrophils with PLD significantly (P < 0.05) reduced the ability of these cells to migrate toward activated sheep serum. The PLD was not chemotactic, but it activated normal sheep serum, producing factors that were chemotactic for neutrophils.
