Neutrophil accumulation within tissues: A damage x healing dichotomy
The abundance of neutrophils in human circulation, their fast mobilization from blood to tissues, along with their alleged short life-span led to the image of neutrophils as a homogeneous cell type designed to fight infections and die in the process. Additionally, their granule content and capacity...

description |
The abundance of neutrophils in human circulation, their fast mobilization from blood to tissues, along with their alleged short life-span led to the image of neutrophils as a homogeneous cell type designed to fight infections and die in the process. Additionally, their granule content and capacity to produce molecules with considerable cytotoxic potential, lead to the general belief that neutrophil activation inexorably results in side effect of extensive tissue injury. Neutrophil activation in fact causes tissue injury as an adverse effect, but it seems that this is restricted to particular pathological situations and more of an “exception to the rule”. Here we review evidences arising especially from intravital microscopy studies that demonstrate neutrophils as cells endowed with sophisticated mechanisms and able to engage in complex interactions as to minimize damage and optimize their effector functions. Moreover, neutrophil infiltration may even contribute to tissue healing and repair which may altogether demand a reexamination of current anti-inflammatory therapies that have neutrophil migration and activation as a target. |
