Hepcidin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization in Monocytes or THP-1 Derived Macrophages
Background: Macrophage polarization plays a critical role in determining the inflammatory states. Hepcidin is a key negative regulator of iron homeostasis and functions. Although hepcidin has been shown to affect ferroportin expression in macrophages, whether it affects macrophage polarization is still largely unknown. Objective: To address whether hepcidin ind...
متن کاملMacrophage dysfunction after burn injury.
The phagocytic and microbicidal activities of alveolar and peritoneal macrophages were evaluated 4 and 24 h after a full-thickness scald burn of 26 to 28% body surface area in anesthetized rats. The contribution of serum factors to the macrophage functions was studied concurrently. The phagocytic activity of alveolar macrophages obtained 4 or 24 postburn was reduced approximately 65% below cont...
متن کاملEnvironmental chemical-induced macrophage dysfunction.
Immunomodulation by environmental chemical contaminants and the role immune parameters play in toxicity and risk assessment studies is of increasing concern. Although considerable evidence has indicated that various xenobiotics may be immunosuppressive, little attention has been directed toward ascertaining a specific cellular locus which could be responsible for the impaired immune responsiven...
متن کاملAlveolar macrophage cathelicidin deficiency in severe sarcoidosis.
BACKGROUND Dysfunctional immune responses characterize sarcoidosis, but the status of cathelicidin, a potent immunoregulatory and antimicrobial molecule, has not been established in clinical disease activity. METHODS Alveolar macrophage cathelicidin expression was determined in biopsy-proven sarcoidosis patients classified clinically as 'severe' (requiring systemic treatment) or 'non-severe' ...
متن کاملAlveolar macrophage dysfunction in malignant lung tumours.
Alveolar macrophage chemotaxis was measured in 129 individuals--13 normal volunteers, 15 tumour free patients with recent bronchopulmonary infections, 10 patients with chronic bronchitis, 29 patients with endothoracic sarcoidosis, 48 patients with primary bronchial carcinoma and 14 patients with pulmonary metastases from various origins. Chemotaxis was tested in the presence of either zymosan a...
