Identification of CD68+ neutrophil granulocytes in in vitro model of acute inflammation and inflammatory bowel disease

Introduction: CD-68 is widely regarded as a selective marker for human monocytes and macrophages and is commonly used in human pathology studies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of CD-68 in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), neutrophil granulocytes (NGs) and in inflamed intestinal tissue samples for comparison.
