Host-Defense Function of Anuclear Polymorphonuclear Neutrophil in Lung Injury
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) function through rapid mobilization to the site of infection and are primary effectors of the innate immune response. Activated PMN extrude genomic DNA to form web-like structures called Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs). After NET release (NETosis), the PMN …
