  1. 1. Towards a Refined Model of Neutrophil Motility

    Författare :Vesa-Matti Loitto; Karl-Eric Magnusson; Tommy Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. PMNL; neutrophils; neutrophil motility; N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe; Medical microbiology; Medicinsk mikrobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The ability of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL; neutrophils), to sense and move to sites of infection is essential for our defense against pathogens. Cell motility is critically dependent on a dynamic remodeling of morphology. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Granulocyte activation by danger signals and blocking of receptor responses

    Författare :Anna-Lena Stenfeldt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; granulocytes; neutrophils; eosinophils; danger signals; danger theory; formyl peptide receptors; antagonists; inhibitors;

    Sammanfattning : Granulocytes are the most abundant cells in the peripherial blood. They serve to eliminate invading microbes and parasites and release anti-microbial agents. In the event of injury, granulocytes are recruited to damaged tissues. LÄS MER
