Role of Neutrophils in Critically Ill Patients: Myeloperoxidase, a Specific Marker of Their Activation

  • Conference paper
Book cover Update 1989

Part of the book series: Update in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((UICM,volume 8))

Abstract

In recent years, the role of neutrophils has been increasingly implicated in tissue injury. Upon activation by different stimuli, neutrophils can release a variety of potentially damaging substances. Lung injury leading to the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is thought to be largely associated with neutrophils activation.
