• Neutrophils fight infection, participate in inflammatory responses
• Bone marrow• Most neutrophils live here• All stages of maturation
• Blood• Only 5% of all neutrophils are here• Normally only segmented neutrophils• Half are marginated
Neutrophilia

• Mature (lots of segmented neutrophils)
• Immature (lots of immature neutrophils)
Types of Neutrophilia

• Bacterial infection
• Inflammation
• Physiologic things• Stress• Hormones
Causes of Mature Neutrophilia

• Toxic granulation
• Döhle bodies
• cytoplasmic vacuolization
Clues to Bacterial Infection
Sometimes, bacterial infections produce “toxic” changes in neutrophils!

• Lymphocytes fight infection, participate in immunologic responses
• Normal lymphocyte count• Varies a lot with age!• Bigger normal range in infants
• Normal immunophenotype in blood• T cells: 80%• B cells: 15%• NK cells: 5%

• Mature (lots of mature lymphocytes)
• Reactive (lots of funny-looking lymphocytes)
