Neutrophilic thrombophagocytosis
Platelets phagocytosed by neutrophils is a rare morphological finding on peripheral blood films. It is rarely an EDTA-dependent artifact but mainly caused by an active vascular inflammation process. Here is reported an unexpected observation of neutrophilic thrombophagocytosis, in the context of a disseminated Streptococcus pneumoniae infection.

IL-17 can be protective or deleterious in murine pneumococcal pneumonia [PDF]
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the major bacterial cause of community-acquired pneumonia, and the leading agent of childhood pneumonia deaths worldwide. Nasal colonization is an essential step prior to infection.

Pocket ACEs: Discovering new function within an old player
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is canonically known for its role in the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) where its conversion of angiotensin I (Ang I) to the bioactive peptide angiotensin II (Ang II) helps to regulate blood pressure, electrolyte, and ...

Neutrophilic dermatoses (ND) are a group of inflammatory skin conditions characterized by a neutrophilic infiltrate on histopathology with no evidence of infection. ND are classified based upon the localization of neutrophils within the skin and clinical features.

Involvement of leukotriene pathway in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury and septic and non-septic shock. [PDF]
The 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway is responsible for the production of leukotrienes (LTs), inflammatory lipid mediators which play a role in innate immunity. More recently, a pivotal role of LTs in ischemia-reperfusion and shock injury has been suggested.

Effect of Lonomia obliqua Venom on Human Neutrophils
The significant incidence of deforestation in South America culminates in the contact of humans with typical forests species. Among these species, one may highlight Lonomia obliqua caterpillar, which, when touched by humans, can poison them through their

Dysregulated Neutrophil Phenotype and Function in Hospitalised Non-ICU COVID-19 Pneumonia
Rationale: Infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with elevated neutrophil counts. Evidence of neutrophil dysfunction in COVID-19 is based on transcriptomics or single functional assays. Cell functions are interwoven pathways, and understanding

Mechanisms to Evade the Phagocyte Respiratory Burst Arose by Convergent Evolution in Typhoidal Salmonella Serovars. [PDF]
Typhoid fever caused by Salmonella enterica serovar (S.) Typhi differs in its clinical presentation from gastroenteritis caused by S. Typhimurium and other non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars.
