Such remodelling of the phagocytic vacuole, a process known as maturation, occurs by coordinated fission and fusion events involving multiple subcompartments of the endocytic pathway. Phagosome ...

These cells deploy complex cytoskeletal rearrangements to recognize and eliminate potential threats 3. Even in the steady state, myeloid cells constantly survey their surroundings for potential ...

In vitro studies demonstrated that these include the induction of certain enzymes, suppression of cell proliferation, immunomodulating activities such as enhancement of the phagocytic activity of ...

Dr. Tilman explains the functions of iPSC-derived microglia and their relevance to conditions like Alzheimer’s.

Macrophages are phagocytic and switch from a proinflammatory type to an anti-inflammatory phenotype as the muscle begins to regenerate.2 In addition, macrophages prevent muscle cells from undergoing ...

This altered fate begins with the force-induced remodeling of the phagocytic synapse formation. We used the parasite Toxoplasma gondii as a model because live Toxoplasma actively invades host ...

susp; contains benzalkonium chloride, sulfites. Glucocorticoids inhibit the edema, fibrin deposition, capillary dilation, and phagocytic migration of the acute inflammatory response, as well as ...

These data do not support an increased risk for adverse outcomes associated with concomitant ceftriaxone and calcium infusions in adult critically ill patients; however, our study was limited by ...

Blood biochemistry and two neutrophil functions, phagocytic activity and oxidative burst, were measured to assess physiological condition, and the profile of mood states (POMS) scores were examined to ...

Although chia seeds were virtually unknown in the United States 20 years ago, this trendy superfood is now on the shelves of every grocery and health food store across the country. Despite the hype, ...
