Transitory presence of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in neonates is critical for control of inflammation Transitory presence of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in neonates is critical for control of inflammation, Published online: 15 January 2018; doi:10.1038/nm.4467 Myeloid-derived suppressor cells are induced in newborn mice by breast-milk-derived lactoferrin and confer protection in a model of necrotizing enterocolitis.
