Wounding a zebrafish tail fin triggers a wave of calcium (the blue here is a low calcium area; the red, high calcium) that signals damage and recruits neutrophils. Summary Scientists at the Sloan ...

New research maps how bone marrow changes in acute myeloid leukemia disrupt neutrophil development and boost the risk for ...

Immature neutrophils are a type of white blood cell (neutrophil) that have not fully matured. Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell. Like all white blood cells, they are involved in ...

Cancer immunotherapies that recruit a patient's own immune system to destroy tumors have transformed the treatment of many types of cancer. Yet these therapies do not elicit universally good treatment ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Neutropenia involves a low neutrophil count, and thrombocytopenia involves a low platelet count. Certain conditions, infections, or medications may cause reduced levels of both. Neutropenia and ...

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), ...

During most eye infections or injuries, neutrophils, immune cells found in the blood, are usually the first line of defense. However, researchers at the Flaum Eye Institute and Del Monte Institute for ...
