Objective: Neutrophil infiltration in patients with sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) is significantly high. Whether IL-17, which is a potent factor mediating neutrophilic inflammation, is involved in the neutrophilic phenotype of SNIP is investigated in the current study.

Study Design: Laboratorial study.

Participants: Nasal papilloma and inferior turbinate were collected from patients with SNIP (n = 50) and control subjects with septal deviation (n = 15).

Methods: IL-17 + cells were evaluated in tissues obtained from patients with SNIP and control subjects with septal deviation, by immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry.

Main Outcome Measures: The IL-17 + cells were mainly localised in mononuclear cells and neutrophils, and were up-regulated in the SNIP samples compared with those in the controls. The IL-17 + T-cell subsets mainly included CD4+ (Th17, 60.0%) and CD8+ (Tc17, 30.0%), and both subsets were enhanced in the SNIP samples than controls. The total level of IL-17 + cells was significantly correlated with neutrophil infiltration in the SNIP tissues. Furthermore, the SNIP homogenates could significantly promote IL-17 production in peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

Conclusions: An increase in IL-17 + cells is evident in SNIP and may be involved in neutrophil infiltration in local tissues. IL-17 could be a potential therapeutic target to relieve the neutrophilic pathological change in SNIP.

Oxidative stress and inflammatory dysregulation play crucial roles in pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI), and their cyclic synergy drives excessive inflammatory responses and further exacerbates ALI. Therefore, new effective strategies to treat ALI are urgently needed. Herein, a novel synergistic selenium based chlorogenic acid nanoparticle was developed to disrupt the cyclic synergistic effect between oxidative stress and inflammatory response in ALI.

Background: Acute rejection (AR) is one of the significant factors contributing to poor prognosis in patients following kidney transplantation. Neutrophils are the main cause of early host-induced tissue injury. This paper intends to investigate the possible mechanisms of neutrophil involvement in acute rejection in renal transplantation.

Disrupting the dangerous alliance: Dual anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant strategy targets platelet-neutrophil crosstalk in sepsis.

Electronic address:

Sepsis is a life-threatening disease characterized by excessive systemic inflammation and coagulopathy. Platelets and neutrophils form a "dangerous alliance" through crosstalk, promoting the inflammatory cytokine storm and coagulation disorders during sepsis. Platelet-neutrophil crosstalk leads to the formation of platelet-neutrophil complexes (PNCs), which are the central "protagonists" of this "dangerous alliance.

Fc receptor γ subunit (FcRγ) activation plays a crucial role in cancer carcinogenesis. Here, we aimed to uncover the impact of FcRγ on circulating tumor cells (CTC) colonization and the underlying mechanism. FcRγ deficient (FcRγ) mice were used to investigate the functional effects of FcRγ in cancer metastasis, and the results demonstrated that FcRγ deficiency significantly promotes metastasis.
