Expression of macrophage procoagulant activity in murine systemic lupus erythematosus.
To explore the induction of monocyte/macrophage procoagulant activity in autoimmune disease, the BXSB murine model of systemic lupus erythematosus was studied. Splenic macrophage procoagulant activity rose coincident with age and the development of glomerulonephritis from 38 +/- 6 mU/10(6) macrophages at 1 mo to a maximum of 29,000 +/- 15,000 mU at 4 mo. Macrophages from 1-mo-old mice could be ...
متن کاملHuman Alveolar Macrophage Proteolytic
The occurrence of emphysema in people deficient in alphai-antltrypsin and the production of emphysema in experimental animals with elastolytic enzymes suggest proteolysis as a mechanism for the development of emphysema. To investigate the possible role of pulmonary alveolar macrophages in the pathogenesis of emphysema, we measured elastase, acid protease, and elastaselike esterase activities in...
متن کامل1152 Monocyte Procoagulant Activity by Murine Hepatitis
Macrophages play a central role in the pathogenesis of many chronic inflammatory lesions (1). By virtue of their functions, strategic location, and wide tissue distribution, these cells can determine susceptibility and resistance to infection. It appears that macrophages can delay and prevent the spread of infection to susceptible cells. However, where infectious agents with cytopathic properti...
متن کاملEffect of acrolein on human alveolar macrophage NF-κB activity.
Acrolein is an environmental pollutant that is known to suppress respiratory host defense against infections; however, the mechanism of the decrease in host defense is not yet clear. We have previously reported that acrolein inhibited endotoxin-induced cytokine release and induced apoptosis in human alveolar macrophages, suggesting that the inhibition of cytokine release and/or cytotoxicity to ...
متن کاملProcoagulant (thromboplastin) activity in human bronchoalveolar lavage fluids is derived from alveolar macrophages.
Fibrin deposition in the alveolar space and the lung interstitium is a prominent feature of many types of inflammatory pulmonary diseases. Cells of the monocyte/macrophage line are the primary cells supplying procoagulant activity in inflammatory lesions. In the present study we found that both lung alveolar macrophages (LAM) and bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BALF) from humans contained procoa...
