2014年1月15日 · Neutrophil maturation progresses from the progranulocyte stage through myelocyte, metamyelocyte, band and mature neutrophil stages, with each successive division resulting in slightly smaller cell with more nuclear constriction and less cytoplasmic RNA (blue color in cytoplasm).

Neutrophils go through distinct developmental stages before getting released to circulation: promyelocytes, myelocytes, metamyelocytes, and band neutrophils (Figure 1). Neutrophils released into blood will express high levels of L-selectin (CD62L).

2019年5月29日 · Neutrophils are recognized as an essential part of the innate immune response, but an active debate still exists regarding the life cycle of these cells. Neutrophils first differentiate in the bone marrow through progenitor intermediaries before entering the blood, in a process that gauges the extramedullary pool size.

2021年9月7日 · Neutrophils are the most prevalent white blood cells in circulation. They are a type of polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocyte, with 3-5 nuclear lobes and fine granules within the cytoplasm. Mature neutrophils exhibit 3-5 nuclear lobes, with immature forms exhibiting less lobes and hypersegmented exhibiting more.

The stages of neutrophil granulopoiesis are promyelocytes, myelocytes, metamyelocytes, band cells and segmented neutrophils . Several studies have identified a higher proportion of immature neutrophils is indicative of infection, particularly neonatal sepsis ( 30 – 32 ).

Neutrophils express and shed various receptors according to their different developmental stages. CXCR2 is upregulated whereas CXCR4 and VLA-4 are downregulated. CXCR1 is constitutively expressed during neutrophil maturation.

2024年1月24日 · As myeloid precursors pass through the various stages of differentiation and maturation to become mature neutrophils in the BM, they undergo morphological changes (nuclear segmentation), increase chemotactic responsiveness and acquire features necessary for microbicidal activity .

2015年3月4日 · It is often possible at the myelocyte stage to see the area of the Golgi apparatus, which appears as a clearing close to the nucleus. The specific secondary granules differentiate the cell into neutrophil, eosinophil, and basophil.

In this review, we provide an update on the dynamic distribution of neutrophils across tissues in health and disease, and emphasize differences between humans and model organisms. We further highlight issues to be addressed to exploit the unique features of neutrophils in the clinic.

2019年7月1日 · During the initial differentiation steps, the myeloid progenitors (myeloblasts) retain their propensity to differentiate into both the monocyte/macrophage lineage and the neutrophil lineage, as well as the other myeloid cells, namely, eosinophils and basophils.
