A bovine whey protein extract can enhance innate immunity by priming normal human blood neutrophils.
Bovine milk-derived products, in particular whey proteins, exhibit beneficial properties for human health, including the acquired immune response. However, their effects on innate immunity have received little attention. Neutrophils are key cells of innate defenses through their primary functions of chemotaxis, phagocytosis, oxidative burst, and degranulation. A whey protein extract (WPE) purif...
متن کاملInnate immune-induced depletion of bone marrow neutrophils aggravates systemic bacterial infections.
Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocytes in circulation and provide a primary innate immune defense function against bacterial pathogens before development of a specific immune response. These specialized phagocytes are short lived (12-24 hours) and continuously replenished from bone marrow. We found that if the host is overwhelmed by a high inoculum of Listeria monocytogenes, neutrophils a...
متن کاملNeutrophils in the innate immune response.
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs or neutrophils) are an essential component of the human innate immune system. Circulating neutrophils are rapidly recruited to sites of infection by host- and/or pathogen-derived components, which also prime these host cells for enhanced microbicidal activity. PMNs bind and ingest microorganisms by a process known as phagocytosis, which typically triggers prod...
متن کاملMetabolic inhibition potentiates oxidant injury.
Toxic oxygen species have been implicated as important mediators of injury after reperfusion of an ischemic organ. The aim of this study was to determine if prior metabolic inhibition, such as that which occurs during ischemia, potentiates oxidant injury in vitro. Bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells were metabolically inhibited for various periods of time with or without the mitochondrial...
متن کاملCalcineurin regulates innate antifungal immunity in neutrophils
Patients taking immunosuppressive drugs, like cyclosporine A (CsA), that inhibit calcineurin are highly susceptible to disseminated fungal infections, although it is unclear how these drugs suppress resistance to these opportunistic pathogens. We show that in a mouse model of disseminated Candida albicans infection, CsA-induced susceptibility to fungal infection maps to the innate immune system...
