bcl-2 inhibits apoptosis of neutrophils but not their engulfment by macrophages.
Neutrophils, the most common inflammatory leukocytes, have the most limited life span of all blood cells. After they undergo apoptosis, they are recognized and engulfed by macro...
Selective Roles for Toll-Like Receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 in the Regulation of Neutrophil Activation and Life Span
Abstract Neutrophil responses to commercial LPS, a dual Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 activator, are regulated by TLR expression, but are amplified by contaminating monocyt...
Human amyloid β‐induced neuroinflammation is an early event in neurodegeneration
Abstract Using a human amyloid β (Aβ) intracerebroventricular infusion mouse model of Alzheimer's disease‐related injury, we previously demonstrated that systemic administration...
Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Kill Bacteria
Neutrophils engulf and kill bacteria when their antimicrobial granules fuse with the phagosome. Here, we describe that, upon activation, neutrophils release granule proteins and...
Involvement of Caspases in Neutrophil Apoptosis: Regulation by Reactive Oxygen Species
Abstract Human neutrophils have a short half-life and are believed to die by apoptosis or programmed cell death both in vivo and in vitro. We found that caspases are activated i...
