Polymorphonuclear leukocytes of boys with chronic granulomatous disease of childhood have defective bactericidal capacity in association with normal kinetics of phagocytosis. 1,2 Patients with ...

Generally, the top leukocyte band (fraction 1) contains 94–98% mononuclear cells (lymphocytes and macrophages) whereas the second (fraction 2) contains 96–99% polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

Besides a variety of other proteases, polymorphonuclear leukocyte elastase (PMN-E) is also suggested to play a role in the processes of tumour cell invasion and metastasis. Yet, there is only ...

Children with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have impaired polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMNL) function leading to secondary bacterial infections and possible acceleration of underlying ...

Polymorphonuclear cell chemotaxis to secretions of pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains of Trichomonas vaginalis were investigated. Cells from three groups, laboratory workers, patients with ...

Abstract 3060 Background: Tumor educated Polymorphonuclear Granulocytes (tPMNG) are a distinct phenotypic set of Neutrophils (N2) with corrupted programmed death pathways resulting in apoptosis ...

Polymorphonuclear leukocytes from patients with chronic granulomatous disease have defective bactericidal capacity for certain bacterial species in spite of normal phagocytic function. 1, 2 ...
