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 ...

In a recent review published in the journal Nature Reviews Gastroenterology and Hepatology, researchers examine the multifaceted roles of neutrophils in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and highlight ...

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 ...

Hospitalized older adults with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and sepsis exhibit impaired neutrophil function; however, glycolytic metabolism is not the driver of neutrophil dysfunction. This ...

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 ...

Blood samples from healthy adults show an inhibition of neutrophil extracellular trap formation (NET) after 1 week of daily ginger supplements. Researchers recruited nine healthy adults aged 18-38 ...

This scanning electron microscopy image captures the moment where degranulating mast cells (pseudo-colored in sepia) attract and start to incorporate living neutrophils (pseudo-colored in cyan), ...

Heart attacks that occur at night are less severe than those that strike during the day. A new study headed by researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) and at Yale ...

Background Neutrophils guarantee a prompt and robust host response to pathogens. Yet, overshooting neutrophil activation ...
