Five steps in leukocyte extravasation in the microcirculation by chemoattractants
For in vivo study of the phenomena observed in vitro, PMN (polymorphonuclear leukocyte) extravasation was analysed quantitatively in the microcirculation of the hamster cheek pouch using a video system. Topical application of leukotriene B(4) or N-formyl-methionylleucyl- phenylalanine increased dose dependently the number of PMNs adhering to the venules. Eighty to 90% of the adhering PMNs disap...
متن کاملMore from the Primeval Forest
two octavo volumes; as this has been translated into English, we gather that it is a book of some consequence. Yet, he has dragged himself away from all his interests in Europe and devoted a valuable part of his life to medical missionary work in equatorial Africa. Such a man must be either a restless crank or a true altruist, and, as it is obvious from his writings that Dr. Schweitzer is not t...
متن کاملSelective suppression of IL-12 production by chemoattractants.
We investigated the ability of chemoattractants to affect IL-12 production by human monocytes and dendritic cells. We found that pretreatment of monocytes with macrophage chemoattractant proteins (MCP-1 to -4), or C5a, but not stromal-derived factor-1, macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha, RANTES, or eotaxin, inhibited IL-12 p70 production in response to stimulation with Staphylococcus aureus...
متن کاملPolymorphonuclear leukocyte adherence induces actin polymerization by a transduction pathway which differs from that used by chemoattractants
Nitrobenzoxadiazole-phallacidin in combination with quantitative fluorescent microscopy have been used to measure F-actin concentrations in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) as they adhere to a plastic surface. Like stimulation with chemoattractants, adherence is associated with a twofold rise in F-actin content. However unlike the rapid rise in F-actin induced by chemoattractants which ...
متن کاملRecovery of urinary nanovesicles from ultracentrifugation supernatants.
BACKGROUND Urinary vesicles represent a newly established source of biological material, widely considered to faithfully represent pathological events in the kidneys and the urogenital epithelium. The majority of currently applied isolation protocols involve cumbersome centrifugation steps to enrich vesicles from urine. To date, the efficiency of these approaches has not been investigated with ...
