Macrophages in homeostatic immune function
Macrophages are not only involved in inflammatory and anti-infective processes, but also play an important role in maintaining tissue homeostasis. In this review, we summarize recent evidence investigating the role of macrophages in controlling angiogenesis, metabolism as well as salt and water balance. Particularly, we summarize the importance of macrophage tonicity enhancer binding protein (T...
متن کاملWnt5a-Rac1-NF-κB homeostatic circuitry sustains innate immune functions in macrophages.
Macrophages play a critical role in innate immunity. Differentiation Ags present on macrophages such as CD14 orchestrate the first line of defense against infection. The basal/homeostatic signaling scheme that keeps macrophages thus groomed for innate immune functions remains unresolved. Wnt5a-Fz5 signaling being a primordial event during cell differentiation, we examined the involvement of Wnt...
متن کاملImmune Homeostatic Macrophages Programmed by the Bacterial Surface Protein NhhA Potentiate Nasopharyngeal Carriage of Neisseria meningitidis
UNLABELLED Neisseria meningitidis colonizes the nasopharyngeal mucosa of healthy populations asymptomatically, although the bacterial surface is rich in motifs that activate the host innate immunity. What determines the tolerant host response to this bacterium in asymptomatic carriers is poorly understood. We demonstrated that the conserved meningococcal surface protein NhhA orchestrates monocy...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
15 صفحه اولThe Influence of Cyclophosphamide on Immune Function of Murine Macrophages
Cyclophosphamide (CY), an alkylating compound is commonly used as a cytoreductive agent in the treatment of cancer ( blood, breast, ovary) because of its ability to interfere with DNA synthesis and its pharmacological action on dividing cells (Ben Efraim 2001). Its action is however more complex since it exerts a strong influence on the immune system. Studies on cyclophosphamide are conducted f...
