Neutrophils are the most abundant circulating leukocytes in human, and heterogeneous neutrophils have been increasingly recognized as important players in tumor progression. They play double ...

Neutrophils are rapidly recruited to sites of infection, injury, or to immune complexes. Upon arrival, they initiate degranulation, release reactive oxygen species (ROS), and/or nuclear extracellular ...

The neutrophil to LC ratio (NLCR) has previously been compared with conventional tests, such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and white cell count (WCC), and has been proposed as a useful marker in the ...

The most important mechanism by which neutrophils inactivate bacteria was thought to be mediated by reactive oxygen species and myeloperoxidase-catalysed halogenation. But in March 21 Nature, Emer ...

Objectives The significance of neutrophilic inflammation in obstructive airway disease remains controversial. Recent studies have demonstrated presence of an active neutrophil population in systemic ...

The aim of our study was to determine whether human neutrophil apoptosis may be regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to trichomonads infection. Incubation of human neutrophils with ...

Conclusions: Serum procalcitonin levels show a rapid increase in children with sepsis, even in infants <12 month old, and they have a better prognostic value than C-reactive protein or neutrophil ...

Pulmonary neutrophil accumulation results in release of chemokines, proteases and reactive oxygen species perpetuating inflammation and tissue injury. Augmenting neutrophil apoptosis in order to ...
