Journal ArticleDOI

Infection-induced NETosis is a dynamic process involving neutrophil multitasking in vivo

TL;DR: Early in infection NETosis involves neutrophils that do not undergo lysis and retain the ability to multitask, and a requirement for both Toll-like receptor 2 and complement-mediated opsonization tightly regulated NET release.
Journal ArticleDOI

A dynamic spectrum of monocytes arising from the in situ reprogramming of CCR2+ monocytes at a site of sterile injury

TL;DR: In response to sterile liver injury, CCR2hiCX3CR1low inflammatory monocytes infiltrate the liver and form a ringlike structure around the injury site; this phenotypic transition was required for optimal repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleation of platelets with blood-borne pathogens on Kupffer cells precedes other innate immunity and contributes to bacterial clearance

TL;DR: This study identifies a previously unknown surveillance mechanism by which platelets survey macrophages that rapidly converts to a critical host response to blood-borne bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

The physiology of leukocyte recruitment: an in vivo perspective.

TL;DR: The mechanisms of leukocyte recruitment have been studied extensively in vitro and have shed light on the basic molecular structure-function relationship of adhesion and signaling molecules involved in this essential immune response, and physiological results that might not have been predicted from in vitro are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

ESAM supports neutrophil extravasation, activation of Rho, and VEGF-induced vascular permeability

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that ESAM deficiency-related inhibitory effect on neutrophil extravasation was observed in mice carrying a disrupted ESAM gene and analyzed them in three different inflammation models, finding that recruitment of lymphocytes into inflamed skin was unaffected by the gene disruption.
