The Temperature Coefficient of Phagocytosis
نویسنده
چکیده
1. The experiments of Madsen and Watabiki on the effect of temperature on the phagocytosis of bacteria are discussed and a new analysis of their curves is given, showing that the rate of phagocytosis is very nearly a logarithmic function of the temperature from 0 degrees to 35 degrees C.; i.e., Q(10) is constant over that range and is equal to 2.0. 2. New experiments are reported on the effect of temperature on the phagocytosis of quartz and carbon particles of uniform sizes, showing a marked increase in the temperature coefficient below 30 degrees C.

Background: Macrophages are one of the most important immune cells. Macrophages can be divided into two main subgroups of classical or inflammatory macrophages(M1) and alternative or non -inflammatory macrophages or (M2), due to different stimuli. One of the factors that causes the macrophage to orient towards M2, is the phagocytosis of apoptosis cells (efferocytosis). The phagocytosis of mesen...
متن کاملThe correlation between zinc and monocyte phagocytosis in patients with major b-thalassemia
Background: Zinc depletion decreases monocyte functions and survival while excessive amount of zinc inhibits monocyte activation. Monocytes shift from conducting intercellular communication to becoming innate immune function as a response. This study aims to examine the influence of zinc status on the monocyte phagocytosis in patients with major beta-thalassemia. Materials and Methods: This st...

number of bacteria ingested at the close of the experlment(instead of the maximum number of bacteria present, which, one is led to infer, was larger than A even at the higher temperatures) and x equal, as usual, to the number of bacteria ingested in time, T. Considering their method of analysis it is not surprising that they found it impossible to calculate the temperature coefficient of phago•...
متن کاملInfluence of Non-Uniform Wall Temperature on Local Heat Transfer Coefficient in a Rotating Square Channel
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental examination of the effect of non-uniform wall temperature on local heat transfer coefficient in a rotating smooth-walled square channel. Three different thermal boundary situations were investigated: (a) even and odd (four) wall uniform temperature, (b) even and odd (four) wall uniform heat flux, and (c) even (leading and trailing) w...
متن کاملA New Structure for Direct Measurement of Temperature Based on Negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System
Thermistors are very commonly used for narrow temperature-range high-resolution applications, such as in medicine, calorimetry, and near ambient temperature measurements. In particular, Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor is very inexpensive and highly sensitive, whose sensing temperature range and sensitivity are highly limited due to the intrinsic nonlinearity and self-heating p...
