A new study in The Journal of Immunology reveals how a high-fat diet may impair the immune system's ability to respond to infection by impacting the function of neutrophils, one of the first immune ...

In a recent review published in the journal Nature Reviews Gastroenterology and Hepatology, researchers examine the multifaceted roles of neutrophils in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and highlight ...

A new editorial paper titled "Neutrophil PAD4: how does it function in cancer beyond promoting NETosis?" has been published in Oncotarget. "Using several transplantable and genetically engineered ...

Hospitalized older adults with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and sepsis exhibit impaired neutrophil function; however, glycolytic metabolism is not the driver of neutrophil dysfunction. This ...

There are many ways that the human body responds to stress, from the adrenaline rush of the "fight-or-flight" instinct to more subtle, complex changes that may not be immediately recognizable to us.

Scientists identify WASH protein complex as a gatekeeper of neutrophil-driven inflammation. A team led by Scripps Research scientists has uncovered key details of an immune-cell process that ...

Heart attacks that occur at night are less severe than those that strike during the day. A new study headed by researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) and at Yale ...

Blood samples from healthy adults show an inhibition of neutrophil extracellular trap formation (NET) after 1 week of daily ginger supplements. Researchers recruited nine healthy adults aged 18-38 ...

This scanning electron microscopy image captures the moment where degranulating mast cells (pseudo-colored in sepia) attract and start to incorporate living neutrophils (pseudo-colored in cyan), ...

Figure 1: Mechanisms involved in regulation of tumor progression by neutrophil PAD4. “Using several transplantable and genetically engineered mouse models, we demonstrated that tumor growth was ...
