Abstract
Journal of Leukocyte Biology considers manuscripts of original investigations focusing on the origins, developmental biology, biochemistry and functions of granulocytes, lymphocytes, mononuclear phagocytes, and other cells involved in host defense. These include full-length papers on original research, rapid communications of new discoveries, letters, commentaries, and invited reviews.Keywords
