Abstract

Neutrophils constitute the first line of the innate immunity in humans. They employ several strategies to trap and kill microorganisms, such as phagocytosis, degranulation, and the formation of extracellular traps (NETs). It has been well documented, that generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) is crucial in the life cycle of a polymorphonuclear phagocyte. These compounds due to high reactivity act as powerful antimicrobial factors in the process of pathogens clearance and can also modulate immunological response. On the other hand, excessive amount of free radicals may have detrimental effect on host tissues and markers of oxidative and nitrosative stress are detectable in many diseases. It is necessary to maintain the balance between ROS/RNS formation and removal. The review highlights our current understanding of the role of ROS and RNS produced by neutrophils in health and disease.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 October 2015.
All research outputs
#20,273,512
of 22,805,349 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#3,967
of 4,950 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#223,594
of 265,103 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#20
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,805,349 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,950 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 265,103 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
