Summary

This study aims to understand how certain immune cells (neutrophils and monocytes) sense signals in the body and what substances they produce, which can lead to inflammation. Healthy adults aged 18-65 who weigh at least 110 pounds can participate by donating blood up to six times a year. The blood is used in lab experiments to examine cell responses, helping researchers learn more about how the body reacts to disease-related conditions.
