Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell that act as the first line of the innate immune system to protect and against invading pathogens from the human body. Generally, neutrophils are the most abundant cells that play an important role in response to infections through their ability to migrate into affected tissue upon pathogens invasion. The activation of neutrophils are able to engage …
Neutrophils play an important role in the innate immune mechanism. During pathogen encounter, these cells gather at the infection site and perform various functions. Neutrophil could effectively eliminate pathogens by performing their functions such as respiratory burst, degranulation, phagocytosis, and formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Therefore, neutrophil activation eme…
Glioblastoma (GBM) is known as a highly aggressive and malignant form of brain cancer. Despite advances in understanding the genetic and molecular basis of glioblastoma, it has a poor prognosis with a median survival rate of 9 months. The complex interplay between malignant cells and the surrounding tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in tumor progression and treatment respons…
Inflammation is a crucial part of the immune response, involving neutrophils, the predominant white blood cells, in combating pathogens. Their recruitment is regulated during inflammation, which can lead to conditions like autoimmune diseases and cancer. This study aims to explore meso- Dihydroguaiaretic acid (MDGA) derivatives, particularly MZ47, as potential therapeutic options for neut…
Neutrophils are the main cells that play a significant role in the innate immune system. Upon a pathogenic invasion, these cells are recruited to the site of infection and perform many different functions. Targeting the neutrophils for therapeutic interventions has been a great challenge due to the complexity of their signaling pathway and mechanisms. Therefore, the search for drug candidates t…
Neutrophils are polymorphonuclear and phagocytic leukocytes that act as the first line of innate immune defense to protect and rapidly kill the invading pathogens from the human body. In general, neutrophils are essential immune cells that play a significant role in the early response to infections through their ability to migrate into affected tissues upon pathogens invasion. The activation of…
