Abstract

Clinical Implications and Future Research of Neutrophils in Health and Disease

Ponton Simpson

Neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, play a vital role in the body's innate immune response. As the most abundant type of granulocyte, they account for approximately 50%-70% of all circulating white blood cells in humans. These cells are often the first responders to sites of infection and inflammation, acting as the frontline defenders against invading pathogens. Understanding the biology, function, and clinical significance of neutrophils is essential for appreciating their role in immune defense and disease.
