Activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils play an important role in the pathogenesis of vaso-occlusive painful sickle cell crisis. Upon activation, polymorphonuclear neutrophils can form neutrophil extracellular traps. Neutrophil extracellular traps consist of a meshwork of extracellular DNA, nucleosomes, histones and neutrophil proteases. Neutrophil extracellular traps have been demonstrated to ...
Evidence indicates that the lentivirus, HIV, infection affects neutrophil response to bacteria and bacterial products in vitro. We used a novel model of rapid onset immunosuppression following infection with a similar lentivirus, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), in cats to examine neutrophil function within the microvasculature in vivo and to determine the steps that are impaired in the neu...
Neutrophils are important effector cells of antimicrobial immunity in an acute inflammatory response, with a primary role in the clearance of extracellular pathogens. However, in respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), there is excessive infiltration and activation of neutrophils, subsequent production of reactive oxygen species, and release of seri...
Blood neutrophils contribute to joint injury in human and experimental models of arthritis. Neutrophil migration out of the blood in joint inflammation involves both the CD18 (beta2) integrins and a CD18 integrin-independent pathway. To investigate this migration, radiolabeled rat blood neutrophils were used to measure neutrophil accumulation in the inflamed joints of rats with adjuvant arthrit...
Background—After activation, platelets adhere to neutrophils via P-selectin and b2-integrin. The molecular mechanisms and adhesion events in whole blood exposed to venous levels of hydrodynamic shear in the absence of exogenous activation remain unknown. Methods and Results—Whole blood was sheared at '100 s. The kinetics of neutrophil-platelet adhesion and neutrophil aggregation were measured i...
Recently we found that cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant influenced anterior pituitary hormone release in vitro. These observations prompted us to investigate the possibility of the existence of cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant in the hypothalamus. Immunohistochemistry showed that cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-like immunoreactivity existed in the paraventricul...
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's) is a rare autoimmune neutrophil-mediated vasculitis that can cause renal disease and mucosal manifestations. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are present in many patients, vary in level over time, and induce neutrophil activation through engagement with Fc receptors (FcRs). Given roles for FcRs in ANCA-mediated neutrophil activation and I...
BACKGROUND Neutrophil activation has been implicated in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. The aim of this study was to investigate whether neutrophil-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulate adhesion to endothelial cells in preeclampsia. METHODS We first assessed neutrophil superoxide production and neutrophil-endothelial cell adhesion in normal nonpregnant women (n = 8), normal preg...
PI3K plays a fundamental role in regulating neutrophil recruitment into sites of inflammation but the role of the different isoforms of PI3K remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated the role of PI3Kgamma and PI3Kdelta for neutrophil influx induced by the exogenous administration or the endogenous generation of the chemokine CXCL1. Administration of CXCL1 in PI3Kgamma(-/-) or wild-type (WT) ...
Neutrophil elastase, a potent serine protease carried and released by activated neutrophils, is not synthesized by neutrophils, but by their bone marrow precursor cells. Using in situ hybridization with 35S-labeled antisense and sense neutrophil elastase cRNA probes, the present study demonstrates that expression of the neutrophil elastase gene is tightly controlled in bone marrow precursors an...
