Current opinion in infectious diseases, 2012•journals.lww.comNeutrophil migration is a coordinated process that is altered at multiple stages during sepsis.
In combination with impaired neutrophil function, these alterations culminate in defective
innate immunity in septic patients. Defining the mechanisms involved and strategies to
interrupt these deleterious responses requires further investigation.
