Neutrophils are polymorphonuclear cells that are abundant in peripheral blood and participate in the antimicrobial response and inflammation-induced tissue damage in vivo. The phenotypic and ...

Sepsis arises from infection and immune dysregulation. Neutrophils play a key role in its progression, yet existing clinical tools cannot simultaneously isolate these cells and measure their ...

Scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) have discovered that neutrophils, the most abundant cells of the innate immune system, have many more functions in the body ...

Neutrophils are central to the innate immune defence of newborns, providing the first line of protection against bacterial, viral and fungal invasion. In neonates, production, maturation and ...

Scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) have discovered that neutrophils, the most abundant cells of the innate immune system, have many more functions in the body ...

A new study in The Journal of Immunology reveals how a high-fat diet may impair the immune system's ability to respond to infection by impacting the function of neutrophils, one of the first immune ...

Scientists identify WASH protein complex as a gatekeeper of neutrophil-driven inflammation. A team led by Scripps Research scientists has uncovered key details of an immune-cell process that ...

Figure 1: Mechanisms involved in regulation of tumor progression by neutrophil PAD4. “Using several transplantable and genetically engineered mouse models, we demonstrated that tumor growth was ...

Like a spider trapping its prey, our immune system cells cooperate to capture and "eat" bacteria. The newly identified antibacterial mechanism, reported Sept. 10 in Science Advances, could inspire ...

Scripps Research scientists led a team that reports that it has uncovered key details of an immune-cell process that frequently underlies excessive inflammation in the body. The findings could lead to ...
