Erythrocyte sialoglycoproteins engage Siglec-9 on neutrophils to suppress activation.

TLDR
It is proposed that a sialic acid-based "self-associated molecular pattern" on erythrocytes also helps maintain neutrophil quiescence in the bloodstream and help explain why neutrophils become easily activated after separation from whole blood.

Siglecs: A journey through the evolution of sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-type lectins

TL;DR: The presence of Siglec in different classes of vertebrates is focused on, offering a bridge between the presence of different Siglecs and the biological situations of the selected animals, to reveal the conservation of SigLecs throughout evolution.

Sialic acid–binding immunoglobulin-like lectins (Siglecs) detect self-associated molecular patterns to regulate immune responses

TL;DR: Experimental evidence for the role of Siglecs—in particular CD33-related Siglec—as self-receptors and their sialoglycan ligands in regulating this balance between recognition of self and non-self is summarized.

Dual actions of group B Streptococcus capsular sialic acid provide resistance to platelet-mediated antimicrobial killing

TL;DR: GBS Sia has dual roles in counteracting platelet antimicrobial immunity: conferring intrinsic resistance to platelet-derived antimicrobial components and inhibiting platelet activation through engagement of inhibitory Siglecs.

Neutrophil extracellular traps kill bacteria

TL;DR: It is described that, upon activation, neutrophils release granule proteins and chromatin that together form extracellular fibers that bind Gram-positive and -negative bacteria, which degrade virulence factors and kill bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophil recruitment and function in health and inflammation

TL;DR: The key features of the life of a neutrophil are discussed, from its release from bone marrow to its death, and the mechanisms that are used by neutrophils to promote protective or pathological immune responses at different sites are explained.

Neutrophils in the activation and regulation of innate and adaptive immunity

TL;DR: Neutrophils have long been viewed as the final effector cells of an acute inflammatory response, with a primary role in the clearance of extracellular pathogens, but more recent evidence has extended the functions of these cells.

Neutrophil Function: From Mechanisms to Disease

TL;DR: A survey of basic neutrophil biology, with an emphasis on examples that highlight the function of neutrophils not only as professional killers, but also as instructors of the immune system in the context of infection and inflammatory disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophil kinetics in health and disease

TL;DR: Current understanding of how neutrophils are released from the bone marrow is outlined, in particular, the role of the CXC chemokine receptor 4/stromal-derived factor 1 axis and the relative size and role of freely circulating and marginated pools within the vascular compartment are outlined.
