Biochemistry and Physiology of the Neutrophil

This book describes the role of the neutrophil in infection and inflammation and provides an up-to-date review of the biochemistry and physiology of this cell, highlighting the mechanisms by which they seek out and destroy pathogenic microorganisms. The development of these cells during haematopoiesis is described and the mechanisms that lead to the production of reactive oxidants and the intracellular signal transduction systems that lead to the cell's activation are reviewed. The book also discusses recent discoveries concerning the role of cytokines in the regulation of neutrophil function together with the importance of the neutrophil as a generator of inflammatory cytokines. Finally, there is a description of the biochemical defects that give rise to some of the neutrophil-associated human diseases.

I pray that this book leads someone to Christ. If only one person gets saved after reading this book it will be well worth the effort. If God can use someone like me to carry his word to the lost he can use anyone of you. You can never get too far in the world that God cannot get you out. When it comes to you, God will get your attention one way or the other. I ran from God a long time. One day I was driving and my brakes went out. I literally hit the church I was running from. I don't run from God anymore. My pastor, Truman Carter, brings God's word and I write it down and pass it out wherever I go. If people won't go to church I'll bring the church to them. So just sit back, and let God work as you are reading this book. There are almost a hundred different messages in here. If you can find just one that helps you find Jesus our job is done. I hope this helps you grow closer to the Lord. I want to thank God for giving me a chance to bring his word. I hope you have as much joy reading this as we did working on it. Pastor Truman Carter and Steven Wayne Edwards working for God the only way we know how!
