Modulation of Chicken Macrophage Functions by Genetic and Environmental Factors
Macrophages (members of mononuclear phagocytic system) are important effector cells in nonspecific and specific immunity. By virtue of being phagocytic cells, macrophages engulf invading microorganisms, thereby representing the first line of immunological defenses. As accessory cells, macrophages can process and present foreign antigens to B-and-T lymphocyte. They produce several biologically a...
متن کاملa contrastive study of rhetorical functions of citation in iranian and international elt scopus journals
writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...
Hormetic modulation of aging and longevity by mild heat stress.
Aging is characterized by a stochastic accumulation of molecular damage, progressive failure of maintenance and repair, and consequent onset of age-related diseases. Applying hormesis in aging research and therapy is based on the principle of stimulation of maintenance and repair pathways by repeated exposure to mild stress. In a series of experimental studies we have shown that repetitive mild...
متن کاملMorphine-induced macrophage apoptosis: oxidative stress and strategies for modulation.
Occurrence of macrophage apoptosis has been implicated for the altered immune function found in an opiate milieu. In the present study, we evaluated the role of oxidative stress in morphine-induced macrophage apoptosis. Morphine promoted the apoptosis of macrophages. This effect of morphine was associated with the production of superoxide and nitric oxide (NO). Antioxidants provided protection ...
متن کاملtumor associated macrophage: a review on the phenotypes, traits and functions
the macrophages role within the tumor microenvironment has amended by a variety of factors, thus serves a vital role in tissue morphogenesis. the role of macrophages in health and disease differs enormously as the macrophage has shown dual functions. macrophage has a basic role in antigen presentation serving as the first line of defense in diseases. however the presence of cytokines and growth...
