Hyperactivity of neutrophil leukotactic responses during active bacterial infection.
To determine if changes in neutrophil leukocyte function occur during active bacterial infection, the neutrophils of 25 patients with active bacterial infection and 25 age-matched controls were compared for leukotactic activity, random mobility, and nitroblue tetrazolium reduction. The neutrophil leukocytes of patients with bacterial infection were hyperactive in unidirectional movement toward ...
متن کاملFas regulates neutrophil lifespan during viral and bacterial infection.
The regulation of neutrophil lifespan is critical for a circumscribed immune response. Neutrophils are sensitive to Fas/CD95 death receptor signaling in vitro, but it is unknown if Fas regulates neutrophil lifespan in vivo. We hypothesized that FasL-expressing CD8(+) T cells, which kill antigen-stimulated T cells during chronic viral infection, can also induce neutrophil death in tissues during...
متن کاملNeutrophil cytochemistry in bacterial infection.
A new cytochemical technique, sensitive to altered lysosomal membrane permeability of blood neutrophils, has been evaluated as a screening test for bacterial infection. This technique, for the lysosomal enzymes acid phosphatase and chloroacetate esterase, was compared with the neutrophil alkaline phosphatase and nitroblue tetrazolium tests. The mean score for each method was significantly highe...
متن کاملHuman Neutrophil Clearance of Bacterial Pathogens Triggers Anti-Microbial γδ T Cell Responses in Early Infection
Human blood Vγ9/Vδ2 T cells, monocytes and neutrophils share a responsiveness toward inflammatory chemokines and are rapidly recruited to sites of infection. Studying their interaction in vitro and relating these findings to in vivo observations in patients may therefore provide crucial insight into inflammatory events. Our present data demonstrate that Vγ9/Vδ2 T cells provide potent survival s...
متن کاملPyk2 is required for neutrophil degranulation and host defense responses to bacterial infection.
The appropriate regulation of neutrophil activation is critical for maintaining host defense and limiting inflammation. Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) express a number of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases that regulate signaling pathways leading to activation. One of the most highly expressed, but least studied, kinases in PMNs is proline rich kinase 2 (Pyk2). By analogy to the related focal a...
