Conclusions: Serum procalcitonin levels show a rapid increase in children with sepsis, even in infants <12 month old, and they have a better prognostic value than C-reactive protein or neutrophil ...

Neutrophils are the most abundant circulating leukocytes in human, and heterogeneous neutrophils have been increasingly recognized as important players in tumor progression. They play double ...

Neutrophils are rapidly recruited to sites of infection, injury, or to immune complexes. Upon arrival, they initiate degranulation, release reactive oxygen species (ROS), and/or nuclear extracellular ...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS ... of ROS is important in bacterial killing by alveolar macrophages and neutrophils, and antioxidants may interfere with this process and contribute to worsening ...
