PPARs in Alveolar Macrophage Biology
PPARs, most notably PPAR-gamma, play a crucial role in regulating the activation of alveolar macrophages, which in turn occupy a pivotal place in the immune response to pathogens and particulates drawn in with inspired air. In this review, we describe the dual role of the alveolar macrophage as both a first-line defender through its phagocytotic activity and a regulator of the immune response. ...
متن کاملMacrophage Polarization in Lung Biology and Diseases
Lung is a major site of continuous immune reactions as it encounters various foreign particles and antigens entering the respiratory system. It is the main internal organ constantly exposed to the external environment that contains an array of microbes and particulate matter. Typically an adult exchanges 4.2 liters of air per minute amounting to almost 6000 liters per day [1In fact ventilation ...
متن کاملCellular signaling in macrophage migration and chemotaxis.
Whereas most cells in adult tissues are fixed in place by cell junctions, leukocytes are motile and able to migrate actively through the walls of blood vessels into surrounding tissues. The actin cytoskeleton of these cells plays a central role in locomotion, phagocytosis, and the regulation of cell shape that are crucial elements of neutrophil and monocyte/macrophage function. This review will...
متن کاملFrom kinetics and cellular cooperations to cancer immunotherapies
In this review will be underlined two simple ideas of potential interest for the design of cancer immunotherapies. One concerns the importance of kinetics, with the key notion that a single cause may trigger two opposite effects with different kinetics. The importance of this phenomenon will be underlined in neurobiology, transcription networks and the immune system. The second idea is that eff...
متن کاملHow to escape from a macrophage
L ike a well-trained police dog, a macro-phage responds to a signal that means " let go. " Tsai and Discher reveal that the signal works by blocking a molecular motor that helps drag bacteria and other potential enemies into the macrophage. Macrophages sweep up pathogens while leaving our own cells alone. A two-step procedure for recognizing intruders helps avoid misdirected attacks. In the fi ...
