متن کاملHuman Macrophages Promote the Motility and Invasiveness
Increasing evidence indicates that macrophages in tumor stroma can significantly modify the malignant phenotypes of tumors. Osteopontin (OPN) is frequently overexpressed in cancers with high metastatic capacity and, thus, has been considered as a potential therapeutic target. To find out whether macrophages can affect the outcome of OPNknockdown tumor cells, we used RNA interference (RNAi) to s...

BACKGROUND Macrophages play critical roles in innate immune response in the liver. Whether macrophages participate in liver innate immunity against HCV replication is poorly understood. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the role of macrophages in liver innate immunity against HCV replication. MATERIALS AND METHODS Freshly isolated monocytes were purified from peripheral bl...
متن کاملAntioxidants inhibit indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in IFN-gamma-activated human macrophages: posttranslational regulation by pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate.
Induction of the heme-containing indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) by IFN-gamma is implicated in anti-microbial and pro-inflammatory activities of human macrophages. Antioxidants can modulate the expression of immune and inflammatory genes, and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) is a frequently used antioxidant to inhibit the transcription factor NF-kappaB. Here we show that IFN-gamma treatment...
متن کاملHuman activated macrophages and hypoxia: a comprehensive review of the literature
Macrophages accumulate in poorly vascularised and hypoxic sites including solid tumours, wounds and sites of infection and inflammation where they can be exposed to low levels of oxygen for long periods. Up to date, different studies have shown that a number of transcription factors are activated by hypoxia which in turn activate a broad array of mitogenic, pro-invasive, pro-angiogenic, and pro...
