Abstract:
The crucial role of leukocytes in host defense is well known. It is becoming increasingly clear, however, that in addition to their beneficial effects, leukocytes can also cause significant injury to host tissues. In this article, the authors review some of the experimental evidence that supports the role of leukocytes in tissue injury.
