TLDR
Current data suggest that neutrophil chemoattractants have unique functions in the recruitment of neutrophils into inflammatory sites in vivo, dictated by their distinct patterns of temporal and spatial expression.

Macrophages and β-cells are responsible for CXCR2-mediated neutrophil infiltration of the pancreas during autoimmune diabetes.

TL;DR: The blockade of neutrophil recruitment at early ages using CXCR2 antagonist dampens the diabetogenic T‐cell response and the later development of autoimmune diabetes, supporting the therapeutic potential of this approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dysregulated immune system networks in war veterans with PTSD is an outcome of altered miRNA expression and DNA methylation.

TL;DR: Combining data from the three techniques provided a holistic view of several pathways in which the differentially expressed genes were impacted through epigenetic mechanisms, in PTSD, providing further evidence that inflammation in PTSD could be epigenetically regulated.

MRGPR-mediated activation of local mast cells clears cutaneous bacterial infection and protects against reinfection

TL;DR: Topical treatment with mastoparan, a peptide MC activator (MCA), enhances clearance of Staphylococcus aureus from infected mouse skins and accelerates healing of dermonecrotic lesions and reinforces protection against a second infection challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophils recruited by CXCR1/2 signalling mediate post-incisional pain

TL;DR: The function of neutrophils in the genesis of post‐incisional pain in an experimental model of post-surgical pain is addressed in a study on neutrophil migration and activation triggered by CXCL1‐CXCR1/2 signalling.

Getting to the site of inflammation: the leukocyte adhesion cascade updated

TL;DR: This Review focuses on new aspects of one of the central paradigms of inflammation and immunity — the leukocyte adhesion cascade.

The Nature of Small-Airway Obstruction in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

TL;DR: Progression of COPD is associated with the accumulation of inflammatory mucous exudates in the lumen and infiltration of the wall by innate and adaptive inflammatory immune cells that form lymphoid follicles, coupled to a repair or remodeling process that thickens the walls of these airways.

How neutrophils kill microbes

TL;DR: Killing was previously believed to be accomplished by oxygen free radicals and other reactive oxygen species generated by the NADPH oxidase, and by oxidized halides produced by myeloperoxidase, but this is incorrect.

Monocyte emigration from bone marrow during bacterial infection requires signals mediated by chemokine receptor CCR2

TL;DR: In blood, Ccr2−/− monocytes could traffic to sites of infection, demonstrating that CCR2 is not required for migration from the circulation into tissues, and determining the frequency of Ly6Chi monocytes in the circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophils, from marrow to microbes.

TL;DR: Neutrophils are produced in the bone marrow from stem cells that proliferate and differentiate to mature neutrophils fully equipped with an armory of granules that contain proteins that enable the neutrophil to deliver lethal hits against microorganisms, but also to cause great tissue damage.
