Neutrophils are immune cells with unusual biological features that furnish potent
antimicrobial properties. These cells phagocytose and subsequently kill prokaryotic and …

Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes in blood. From the circulation, they are quickly
mobilized to sites of inflammation and/or infection. At the affected tissues, neutrophils display …

The lymphatic system is comprised of a network of vessels interrelated with lymphoid tissue,
which has the holistic function to maintain the local physiologic environment for every cell in …

Neutrophil migration and its role during inflammation has been the focus of increased
interest in the past decade. Advances in live imaging and the use of new model systems …

Neutrophils have long been considered as cells playing a crucial role in the immune
defence against invading pathogens. Accumulating evidence strongly supported the direct …

Neutrophils were among the first leukocytes described and visualized by early
immunologists. Prominent effector functions during infection and sterile inflammation …

Neutrophils are polymorphonuclear leukocytes of the phagocytic system that act as first line
of host defense against invading pathogens but are also important mediators of …

Acute inflammation is a localized and self-limited innate host-defense mechanism against
invading pathogens and tissue injury. Neutrophils, the most abundant immune cells in …

There are 9 million cases of active tuberculosis reported annually; however, an estimated
one-third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and remains …

The influx and efflux of cells and antigens to and from the draining lymph nodes largely take
place through the subcapsular, cortical and medullary sinus systems. Recent analyses in …
