| Research Abstract |
We investigated neutrophil infiltration into several organs in cases of child and elder physical abuse using immunohistochemistry for myeloperoxidase, a marker for primed neutrophil, P-selectin, anadhesion molecule, and interleukin-8, a chemotactic factor, and indicated that these analyses may represent supportive diagnostic methods for the physical abuse of the child and elderly. We also indicated that infiltrating primed neutrophils released elastase, a cytotoxic mediator, and suggested that patients with physical abuse may be in a primed stage of multiple organ failure.
