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), ...

Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in the human body, primarily recognized for their essential roles in fighting infections and regulating inflammation. However, their involvement in ...

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 ...

Following injury from a heart attack, immune cells called neutrophils release a peptide that punctures stressed heart cells and destabilizes their electrical activity. This triggers life-threatening ...

Blood contains two types of neutrophils, a type of white blood cell: mature neutrophils and immature neutrophils. Under normal conditions, most neutrophils are mature and play a role in host defense ...

RNA is thought to be a stay-at-home kind of molecule, often comfortably confined within the cell’s interior. So, when RNA molecules were detected on the surface of several cell types, researchers ...

High neutrophils and low lymphocytes are signs of physical stress, inflammation, infection, and/or a medical condition. Neutrophils and lymphocytes are white blood cells that protect the body from ...
