Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a critical role in regulating myeloid cell host defense. In this study, we demonstrated that GM-CSF ...

Mucosal surfaces serve as critical battlegrounds where the immune system must balance tolerance to commensal organisms with rapid defense against pathogens.

Emergency hemopoiesis may maintain blood counts and a proinflammatory environment in MDS, AML, and ICUS. Altered neutrophil subset distributions in MDS and AML show diagnostic sensitivity, with ...

Scientists at the National Center for Tumor Diseases Dresden (NCT/UCC) and Dresden University Medicine, together with an international team of researchers, were able to demonstrate that certain white ...

Researchers in Sweden have provided a comprehensive characterization of circulating granulocytes in people infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – the agent that ...

Researchers decipher the basic biology of neutrophil swarming and now show that the cells also evolved an intrinsic molecular program to self-limit their swarming activity. The study elucidates how ...

The results of a study by researchers at Hokkaido University’s Faculty of Medicine have shown how composition of the gut microbiome is crucial to driving a process known as granulopoiesis that ...

They are the largest group of white blood cells: neutrophil granulocytes kill microorganisms. Neutrophils catch microbes with extracellular structures nicknamed Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) ...

Neutrophil white blood cells Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with immunothrombotic, neutrophil-containing vessel occlusions in the lung. Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID ...

Neutropenia is the most common serious risk of cancer treatment. It occurs when white blood cells called neutrophils drop below a healthy range, putting you at increased risk of infections.
