Abstract

Little is known about the differences in behavior of leukocytes of specific types of wounds. It has been observed clinically that certain tissue types are considerably more able to resist bacterial inoculation, and some experimental evidence points to differences in leukocyte function. How is leukocyte activation affected by its immediate wound milieu, and what is it about a wound that causes a leukocyte to activate?
