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 ...

Neutrophil infiltration is a hallmark of pulmonary inflammation during respiratory viral infections, yet the origin of these ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

In the daytime (left), neutrophils (green) accumulate in tissue bordering the initial site of injury caused by heart attack–induced oxygen deprivation (region surrounded by the dotted line). However, ...
