Abstract

Preterm neonates have reduced spontaneous neutrophil migration compared to term neonates and adults in the absence and presence of TLR4 stimulation. Preterm and term neonates have reduced neutrophil velocities compared to adults in the absence of TLR4 stimulation but no difference in the presence of TLR4 stimulation. Unique transcriptomic response to TLR4 stimulation is observed in neutrophils from preterm neonates, term neonates, and adults. TLR4 stimulation produces an age-specific cytokine response.
