Much More than M1 and M2 Macrophages, There are also CD169+ and TCR+ Macrophages
Monocytes are considered to be precursor cells of the mononuclear phagocytic system, and macrophages are one of the leading members of this cellular system. Macrophages play highly diverse roles in maintaining an organism's integrity by either directly participating in pathogen elimination or repairing tissue under sterile inflammatory conditions. There are different subpopulations of macrophag...
متن کاملM2 macrophages are more resistant than M1 macrophages following radiation therapy in the context of glioblastoma
In some highly inflammatory tumors, such as glioblastoma (GB), macrophages (MΦ) represent the most abundant population of reactive cells. MΦ, initially denoted as M0 MΦ, can be polarized into two further phenotypes: the antitumor M1 MΦ, and the protumor M2 MΦ. The three phenotypes can reside simultaneously in the tumor mass and various external factors may influence MΦ polarization. Radiotherap...
متن کاملMacrophages: much more than big eaters!
The Russian bacteriologist Metchnikov described the mac-rophage for the first time in the late 19th century. 1 For his extraordinary contributions to the then burgeoning field of immunology, he was one of the recipients of the 1908 Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology. The etymology of the word macrophage, built from the roots makros and phagein, lends insights into the earliest understanding ...
متن کاملM2 macrophages phagocytose rituximab-opsonized leukemic targets more efficiently than m1 cells in vitro.
Because macrophages have been implicated as major players in the mechanism of action of rituximab, we have investigated the factors that modulate their tumor cell killing potential. Human macrophages, differentiated in vitro from peripheral blood monocytes, were used in binding and phagocytosis assays using B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia or lymphoma target cells opsonized with rituximab. Phagoc...
متن کاملNovel Markers to Delineate Murine M1 and M2 Macrophages
Classically (M1) and alternatively activated (M2) macrophages exhibit distinct phenotypes and functions. It has been difficult to dissect macrophage phenotypes in vivo, where a spectrum of macrophage phenotypes exists, and also in vitro, where low or non-selective M2 marker protein expression is observed. To provide a foundation for the complexity of in vivo macrophage phenotypes, we performed ...
