“…PDGF, IL-1, IL-18, and other pro-inflammatory cytokines attract neutrophils to the injury site where they secrete proteases, reactive oxygen species, and phagocytose cell debris and pathogens, if present (Jorch and Kubes, 2017). Moreover, recruited neutrophils secrete TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, and chemokines that stimulate migration of the cells of the immune system, including monocytes (Castano et al, 2018). Recruited monocytes differentiate into either pro-inflammatory macrophages, which produce TNFα, IL-1β, or reparative macrophages, which secrete IL-10 and TGF-β (Brazil et al, 2019).…”
