Role of the liver in regulating numbers of circulating neutrophils

Shi, Jialan, Gilbert, Gary E., Kokubo, Yoshihiro, Ohashi, Takashi·2001·Blood

Abstract

Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes [PMNs]) carry potent destructive enzymes that can destroy invasive bacteria or damage normal tissue. PMNs have a half-life of only 6 hours in the blood, but the details of this homeostasis are unknown. In a rat model of endotoxemia, P-selectin was selectively up-regulated in hepatic sinusoids and veins where it was necessary for phagocytosis of PMNs by Kupffer cells in the liver, as opposed to the spleen or the lungs. Apoptotic PMNs appeared in the lungs and spleen only after inactivation of Kupffer cells by gadolinium chloride (GdCl3). Blocking of Fas protein reduced the number of apoptotic cells in the liver; binding of annexin V to phosphatidylserine (PS) reduced the number of PMNs phagocytosed by Kupffer cells. The results support a clearance pathway in which apoptosis and phagocytosis are effected by Kupffer cells after P-selectin–mediated sequestration.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
