Evaluation of the phagocytosis of microspheres in V79 cells by flow cytometry.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Phagocytosis of microspheres in V79 Chinese hamster lung cells was investigated by flow cytometry. Fluorescent microspheres (1.8 micron diameter) were used as the ingesta. Change in the number of V79 cells containing fluorescent microspheres was measured as an index of phagocytic activity. With time there was a sigmoidal increase in cells containing microspheres. The phagocytosis of microspheres is partially explained by two parameters introduced to describe the sigmoidal curves.

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...

Background & Aims: Gastric cancer is the second common cancer in Iran and it has unfortunately no diagnostic signs in early stages. Considering the role of genetic and environmental factors in the development of gastric cancer, this study aimed at evaluating DNA-content of stomach cells in patients with gastric cancer in order to find a reliable index for prediction of disease prognosis and pro...
متن کامل14.6 FluoSpheres and TransFluoSpheres Microspheres for Tracing
FluoSpheres and TransFluoSpheres polystyrene microspheres 1 satisfy several prerequisites of ideal long-term biological tracers. Because the dyes in our microspheres are incorporated throughout the microsphere rather than just on its surface, the fluorescence output per microsphere is significantly greater than that obtained from protein or dextran conjugates (Table 6.6) and is relatively immun...
متن کاملPhagocytosis by human retinal glial cells in culture.
Under a variety of pathologic conditions, glial cells of the retina are capable of phagocytosis. Although phagocytosis may play a role in retinal pathobiology, the regulation of the phagocytic activity of retinal glial cells is poorly understood. We used a culture system to study phagocytosis by human retinal glial cells. The cultured cells were obtained from adult postmortem eyes and were immu...
