Monocyte and macrophage reactions.
For a number of years we have been working with monocytes and macrophages, and I would like to direct my remarks to a number of questions concerning the properties of the monocyte and the macrophage. I think it is quite evident that the mononuclear phagocyte has a major role in dealing with particles. I would like to start out by raising two questions: whether the particles are free particles o...
متن کاملSoluble CD163 Levels and CD163+CD14+ Monocyte/Macrophage Counts in Patients with Asthma
Background: CD163-expressing macrophages are involved in the inflammatory response in asthma. Objective: To assess sputum and serum soluble CD163 (sCD163) and cytokine levels in patients with asthma. Further discussed was the difference between sCD163 and other classic inflammatory mediators. Methods: Sputum was successfully induced in asthma patients (n=85) and healthy controls (n=21). Interle...
متن کاملMonocyte and macrophage heterogeneity in the heart.
Monocytes and macrophages are innate immune cells that reside and accumulate in the healthy and injured heart. The cells and their subsets pursue distinct functions in steady-state and disease, and their tenure may range between hours and months. Some subsets are highly inflammatory, whereas others support tissue repair. This review discusses current concepts of lineage relationships and crosst...
متن کاملMonocyte recruitment and macrophage proliferation in atherosclerosis.
Copyright © Polskie Towarzystwo Kardiologiczne INTRODUCTION In the famous ‘Atlas of atherosclerosis: progression and regression’, Herbert Stary [1] outlines in remarkable detail the development of human atherosclerosis. The photographs depicting lesions at all stages of development, from newborns to the elderly, capture in stunning detail the complexity of an evolving disease. Type I lesions de...
متن کاملTranscription factors that regulate monocyte/macrophage differentiation.
Although all the cells in an organism contain the same genetic information, differences in the cell phenotype arise from the expression of lineage-specific genes. During myelopoiesis, external differentiating signals regulate the expression of a set of transcription factors. The combined action of these transcription factors subsequently determines the expression of myeloid-specific genes and t...
