Complex regulation of neutrophil-derived MMP-9 secretion in central nervous system tuberculosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS-TB) may be fatal even with treatment. Neutrophils are the key mediators of TB immunopathology, and raised CSF matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) which correlates to neutrophil count in CNS-TB is ...

Neutrophil trogocytosis during their trans-endothelial migration: role of extracellular CIRP
Background Neutrophils are the most abundant innate immune cells in the circulating blood, and they act as the first responder against bacterial and fungal infection. However, accumulation of activated neutrophils can cause severe inflammation and tissue

In this Review we discuss data demonstrating recently recognized aspects of neutrophil homeostasis in the steady state, granulopoiesis in 'emergency' conditions and interactions of neutrophils with the adaptive immune system. We explore in vivo observations of the recruitment of neutrophils from blood to tissues in models of blood-borne infections ...

In vitro and in vivo effects of salbutamol on neutrophil function in acute lung injury [PDF]
Background: Intravenous salbutamol (albuterol) reduces lung water in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Experimental data show that it also reduces pulmonary neutrophil accumulation or activation and inflammation in ARDS ...

Olfactomedin 4 marks a subset of neutrophils in mice
Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cell of the innate immune system and participate in essential immune functions. Heterogeneity within neutrophils has been documented, but it is difficult to distinguish if these are altered activation states of a ...

Mineral trioxide aggregate induces the release of matrix metalloproteinase-9 by human neutrophils
Background/purpose: As a pulp capping agent, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is commonly applied on inflamed tissues that present with a variety of immunocompetent cells, including neutrophils. Neutrophils are a major source of matrix metalloproteinases

Human CD79b+ neutrophils in the blood are associated with early-stage melanoma
PurposeDue to their abundance in the blood, low RNA content, and short lifespan, neutrophils have been classically considered to be one homogenous pool.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Drives Expansion of Low-Density Neutrophils Equipped With Regulatory Activities [PDF]
In human tuberculosis (TB) neutrophils represent the most commonly infected phagocyte but their role in protection and pathology is highly contradictory.

Duality of β-glucan microparticles: antigen carrier and immunostimulants [PDF]
Designing efficient recombinant mucosal vaccines against enteric diseases is still a major challenge. Mucosal delivery of recombinant vaccines requires encapsulation in potent immunostimulatory particles to induce an efficient immune response. This paper
