The purpose was to determine the responses of blood neutrophils and E-selectin concentrations during early recovery (<24hr) from 2 bouts of eccentric exercise. Subjects (N=9) completed 2 bouts of eccentric arm exercise using their non-dominant arm (Bout 1 and Bout 2) and 1 non-exercise control condition. The exercise bouts were separated by 4 weeks, and the control condition preceded bout 1. Neutrophil concentrations were significantly higher at 3, 6, and 9-hr post-exercise for Bout 1 relative to Bout 2 and control. No significant changes in blood E-selectin concentrations were observed. Isometric strength deficit was similar for Bout 1 and Bout 2 at 5 min and 3 hr post exercise and was significantly great for Bout 1 relative to Bout 2 at 6, 9, and 24-hr post-exercise. The adaptation to eccentric exercise is associated with a lower concentration of blood neutrophils during early recovery. The neutrophilia associated with novel eccentric arm exercise precedes secondary changes in isometric strength and is not associated with changes in the concentration of blood E-selectin.

Inflammatory disorders, such as sepsis, pancreatitis, and severe COVID-19, often cause immune dysfunction and high mortality. These conditions trigger excessive immune cell influx, leading to cytokine storms, organ damage, and compensatory immune suppression that results in immunoparalysis, organ dysfunction, and reinfection. Controlled and reversible immunosuppression limiting immune cell recruitment to inflammation sites could reduce hyperinflammation and prevent immune exhaustion.

Introduction: The combination of the roots of ginseng and Salvia miltiorrhiza is an effective approach for treating metastatic cancer in patients with Qi stagnation and blood stasis patterns. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the combined use of ginseng and Salvia miltiorrhiza is unknown.
Objectives: This study unveils the pharmacological foundation of ginseng and Salvia miltiorrhiza by examining the involvement of neutrophils in the critical process of tumor hematogenous metastasis.

Exposure to nanoparticles (NPs) is frequently associated with adverse cardiovascular effects. In contrast, NPs in nanomedicine hold great promise for precise lung-specific drug delivery, especially considering the extensive pulmonary capillary network that facilitates interactions with bloodstream-suspended particles. Therefore, exact knowledge about effects of engineered NPs within the pulmonary microcirculation are instrumental for future application of this technology in patients.

Newborns are at high risk to develop sepsis. This is linked to innate immune responses at birth which are not completely adapted to postnatal life. Neutrophils are key players of innate immunity and exhibit a marked ontogenetic regulation of their functionality.

Background: Sepsis is an uncontrolled systemic inflammatory response to an infection that can result in acute failure of the function of the lung called acute respiratory distress syndrome. Leukocyte recruitment is an important hallmark of acute lung failure in patients with sepsis. Endothelial cells (EC) participate in this process by facilitating tethering, rolling, adhesion, and transmigration of leukocytes via adhesion molecules on their cell surface.
