One example entering trials is ex vivo cytokine-treated monocytes essentially training a patients monocytes to be more anti-inflammatory and better at phagocytosis by culturing them with IL-4/IL-10, then infusing them back (this approach is being tested in sepsis under the name GM-CSF tuned monocytes)

In addition, the oxidants may also originate from cytosolic enzyme systems, e.g., NADPH oxidases, and from exogenous triggers such as ionizing radiation and chemotherapeutics
