The latter functions seem hard to reconcile with the widely held view that neutrophils are very short‐lived, with a circulatory half‐life of <7 h. To reopen the discussion on the average neutrophil half‐life, we review and discuss experiments performed in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, as well as recent in vivo labeling… CONTINUE READING
