Inhibiting Mer receptor tyrosine kinase suppresses STAT1, SOCS1/3, and NF-κB activation and enhances inflammatory responses in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury.

abstract：:Neutrophils, an essential component of the innate immune system, are produced at a rate 10(11) cells/day and are consequently the most abundant leukocyte in the blood. These granulocytes have a relatively short half-life (6-8 h) in the blood, and as a result of the cytotoxic nature of their contents, it is critical th...
