Neutrophil Activation Promotes Fibrinogen Oxidation and Thrombus Formation in Behçet Disease.
BACKGROUND Behçet disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis with a broad range of organ involvement, characterized by a multisystemic, immune-inflammatory disorder involving vessels of all sizes and often complicated by thrombosis. Systemic redox imbalance and circulating neutrophil hyperactivation have been observed in BD patients and are thought to be responsible for impaired coagulation. We here...
متن کاملExercise delays neutrophil apoptosis by a G-CSF-dependent mechanism.
The aim of the study was to determine whether exercise affects neutrophil apoptosis and to characterize the underlying mechanisms. Using annexin V labeling, neutrophil apoptosis was measured using flow cytometry after various bouts of exercise (marathon run, concentric/eccentric treadmill exercise, moderate/intensive resistance training) and in vitro conditions. Similarly, apoptosis-related mar...
متن کاملExposure to Leishmania braziliensis Triggers Neutrophil Activation and Apoptosis
BACKGROUND Neutrophils are the first line of defense against invading pathogens and are rapidly recruited to the sites of Leishmania inoculation. During Leishmania braziliensis infection, depletion of inflammatory cells significantly increases the parasite load whereas co-inoculation of neutrophils plus L. braziliensis had an opposite effect. Moreover, the co-culture of infected macrophages and...
متن کاملNeutrophil cathepsin G promotes prothrombinase and fibrin formation under flow conditions by activating fibrinogen-adherent platelets.
Human neutrophil proteases cathepsin G and elastase can directly alter platelet function and/or participate in coagulation cascade reactions on the platelet or neutrophil surface to enhance fibrin formation. The clotting of recalcified platelet-free plasma (PFP) or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) supplemented with corn trypsin inhibitor (to shut down contact activation) was studied in well-plates or...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis 19-kDa lipoprotein promotes neutrophil activation.
Certain microbial substances, e.g., LPS, can activate neutrophils or prime them to enhance their response to other activating agents, e.g., fMLP. We investigated the role of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) 19-kDa lipoprotein in activation of human neutrophils. MTB 19-kDa lipoprotein initiated phenotypic changes characteristic of neutrophil activation, including down-regulation of CD62 liga...
