Abstract: Peritoneal inflammation remains a major cause of treatment failure in patients with kidney failure who receive peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal inflammation is characterized by an increase in neutrophil infiltration. However, the molecular mechanisms that control neutrophil… read more here.
