Water permeability of alveolar macrophages

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 1986
The hydraulic conductivity coefficient (Lp) of alveolar macrophages, recovered by lavage from dog lungs, was determined by following volume changes induced by changes of nonpermeating solute concentrations of suspending fluid as a function of time at 20 degrees C. The volume changes were monitored as changes in absorbance of the suspended cells at 600

Functional Heterogeneity of Alveolar Macrophages

1981
The alveolar macrophage is the first line of defense against inhaled toxicants, infectious organisms and inert dusts. While much attention has been paid to the mechanisms of activation of peritoneal macrophages, little information is available concerning those of the alveolar macrophage. Alveolar macrophages have been reported to differ from peritoneal

Spiramycin uptake by alveolar macrophages

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1988
The in-vitro and in-vivo uptake of spiramycin by human and animal alveolar macrophages was studied. In-vitro penetration was studied in guinea pig and human alveolar macrophages incubated in medium 199 at 37 degrees C containing spiramycin at various concentrations. Results were expressed as the cellular/extracellular concentration ratio (C/E).

Alveolar Macrophages in Perinatal Infants

Pediatrics, 1984
The presence of alveolar macrophages in the neonatal lung at the time of autopsy is correlated with the presence of pulmonary lesions and with the duration of postnatal life. Alveolar macrophages were noted at 20 weeks of gestation in infants with congenital pneumonia, but were not present in most full-term infants who were stillborn.

Formation of lipoxins by alveolar macrophages

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1988
Rat alveolar macrophages incubated with (15S), 15-hydroperoxy-5,8, 11-cis-13-trans-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HPETE) in the presence of the calcium ionophore A23187 produced a series of polar compounds. Reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was used to purify these compounds and their identities were characterized by physical ...

Sarcoidosis: an alveolar macrophage disease?

Sarcoidosis, 1989
The Authors focus on new functions of alveolar macrophages (AM) from patients with active pulmonary sarcoidosis. They show that sarcoid AM present a candidacidal activity higher than normal controls, probably due to an enhanced phagocytic efficiency.
