The female mouse was cloned using peripheral leukocyte blood cells -- white blood cells that circulate in the blood rather than localizing in organs.
White blood cells, or leukocytes, are the immune system's warriors.
The actions of the complement system include cell lysis, vascular permeability, leukocyte chemotaxis, lysosomal enzyme release from phagocytic cells, and neutralization of certain viruses.
This leads to attenuation of disruption of the microvascular barrier, attenuation of postischemic leukocyte adherence, and reduced patterns of injury.
Its application to peripheral blood leukocytes has not been explored.
The movement of leukocytes into the infected tissue is critical to prevent the progression of mastitis.
Attempts can be made to reduce the level of recipient anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies.
The body's most important natural defense elements are the leukocytes and the complement proteins, which are part of the nonspecific immune response.
