Biomarkers of cell damage, neutrophil and macrophage activation associated with in-hospital mortality in geriatric COVID-19 patients
BackgroundThe risk for symptomatic COVID-19 requiring hospitalization is higher in the older population. The course of the disease in hospitalised...

Association of admission neutrophil serine proteinases levels with the outcomes of acute ischemic stroke: a prospective cohort study
BackgroundNeutrophil serine proteinases (NSPs), released by activated neutrophils, are key proteins involved in the pathophysiologic processes of...

Visualizing NETosis Using a Novel Neutrophil Extracellular Trap-Specific Marker
As the most abundant leukocyte in circulation, the neutrophil plays a far-reaching role in maintaining homeostasis. Within the context of disease,... -
Effects of neutrophil fate on inflammation
IntroductionNeutrophils are important participants in the innate immune response. They rapidly and efficiently identify and clear infectious agents...

Neutrophil sub-types in maintaining immune homeostasis during steady state, infections and sterile inflammation
IntroductionNeutrophils are component of innate immune system and a) eliminate pathogens b) maintain immune homeostasis by regulating other immune...

Role of Nitric Oxide Synthase and Nitric Oxide Signaling in the Neutrophil Ontogeny and Functions
Neutrophils are the essential guards of the immune system that inactivate different pathogens as well as instruct specific immune responses. Nitric... -
Neutrophil extracellular traps in systemic autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases
Systemic autoimmune diseases are characterized by the failure of the immune system to differentiate self from non-self. These conditions are...
-
Neutrophil diversity and plasticity: Implications for organ transplantation
Neutrophils, as the first defenders against external microbes and stimuli, are highly active and finely regulated innate immune cells. Emerging...
