Dohle bodies are present in these cells during some physical trauma and Wissler's disease, while antibodies against cytoplasmic proteins in these cells circulate in Wegener's granulomatosis.
Dohle bodies are present in these cells during some physical trauma and Wissler's disease, while antibodies against cytoplasmic proteins in these cells circulate in Wegener's granulomatosis. These cells expel a net of chromatin in response to PMA or LPS, known as their namesake "extracellular traps". Hypersegmented ones are a clinical sign of megalobastic anemia, and a low count of these cells occurs when the LYST gene is mutated, a condition known as Chediak-Higashi syndrome. They contain myeloperoxidase, cathepsin G, and defensins in their azurophilic granules, and stain pink under the H&E stain. The most common type of leukocyte, these cells contain a lobed nucleus and undergo a respiratory burst after performing their most notable function. For 10 points, name these phagocytes that are the first in the line of defense.
