Depletion of Neonatal Neutrophilic Cells Worsens the Outcome of E. coli Sepsis in Newborn Mice
In a neonatal mouse model of E. coli sepsis, depleting neonatal neutrophilic cells (NNC) increased mortality and systemic inflammation. The bacterial load increased slightly, and the immune cell populations remained unchanged. These findings suggest that NNC may play a role in controlling inflammation and protecting neonates from lethal sepsis ...
