Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes and serve as a first line of defense against infectious microorganisms. For this purpose, neutrophils contain granules filled with proteolytic and other cytotoxic enzymes. Neutrophils have the shortest lifespan of all leukocytes.

Neutrophils are short-lived, highly specialized phagocytes. Their main function is to defend the host organism against invading microbes. The properties required to perform this function are chemotactic responsiveness, mobility, and the ability to phagocytose. Microorganisms are sensed through the chemotactic signals they emit or induce; are approached

Regulation of the neutrophil life span by apoptosis provides a fine balance between their function as effector cells of host defense and a safe turnover of these potentially harmful cells. Alterations of neutrophil apoptosis are associated with a number of diseases.

Eosinophils are strongly implicated as a major proinflammatory cell in the pathogenesis of asthma. Basic proteins from the crystalloid granule may be responsible for damage to mucosal epithelium whereas membrane-derived lipid mediators (particularly platelet activating factor and leukotriene C4) might directly influence bronchial smooth muscle ...

The red bone marrow — the source of all blood cells — is a large, but dispersed organ, about the size of the liver. In steady state, about 7 * 1010 mature neutrophilic granulocytes (hereafter called PMN-“polymorphonuclears” — or just granulocytes) – are mobilized daily from red bone marrow to blood.

The importance of inflammation in asthma has been recognized for a long time and recently proved in man and animal models. All inflammatory cells are probably involved in exacerbations of asthma. Neutrophils in particular are present in the airways during and after the spontaneous asthma attacks in man and during asthmatic reactions and airway ...

Elevated neutrophil function in chronic neutrophilic leukemia
American Journal of Hematology, 1992AbstractA 65‐year‐old man with marked leukocytosis was admitted for diagnosis and treatment. His peripheral blood leukocyte count was 37,500/μI and the leukocytes consisted of mature neutrophil‐like cells. A high neutrophil alkaline phosphatase score and a normal bone marrow cell karyotype suggested that the patient had chronic neutrophilic leukemia ...

Incidence of Neutrophil Antigens on Human Cord Neutrophils
American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 1984ABSTRACT: Neutrophils isolated from cord blood of healthy newborns (33 blacks and 21 whites) were investigated by EDTA‐microagglutination for their expression of neutrophil specific antigens that have been associated with isoimmune neonatal or autoimmune neutropenia.

Neutrophils play an important role in inflammatory responses that are critical for host defense against infection, contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory conditions that involve the sinuses and respiratory tract, and comprise 50–75% of circulating leukocytes in humans.
