Reprogramming neutrophil responses
In Person Only
We have recently observed that during inflammation there is hypoxic reprogramming of circulating, and tissue myeloid cells which is long-lasting and originates in the bone marrow. This work challenges the dogma that in chronic neutrophilic inflammation the lesion occurs at the inflamed site. I aim to present new data dissecting the mechanisms that regulate neutrophil reprogramming and the consequence for innate host defence responses.
