Disparate oxidant gene expression of airway epithelium compared to alveolar macrophages in smokers
Background The small airway epithelium and alveolar macrophages are exposed to oxidants in cigarette smoke leading to epithelial dysfunction and macrophage activation. In this context, we asked: what is the transcriptome of oxidant-related genes in small

Interactions of asbestos-activated macrophages with an experimental fibrosarcoma [PDF]
Supernatants from in vivo asbestos-activated macrophages failed to show any cytostatic activity against a syngeneic fibrosarcoma cell line in vitro. UICC chrysotile-induced peritoneal exudate cells also failed to demonstrate any growth inhibitory effect ...

The goal of studying the mechanisms of action of cells that structure the immune system is to obtain additional data about the influence of immunomodulating peptides of natural origin on the possibility of regulating immune processes.

Interactions between vaccinia virus and sensitized macrophages in vitro [PDF]
The action of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) from normal and vaccinia virus infected mice on infectious vaccinia virus particles was investigatedin vitro. PEC from immune mice showed a significantly higher infectivity titre reduction (virus clearance, VC)

Pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]
The current paradigm for the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is that chronic airflow limitation results from an abnormal inflammatory response to inhaled particles and gases in the lung. Airspace inflammation appears to be different

Lung collagens perpetuate pulmonary fibrosis via CD204 and M2 macrophage activation. [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by abundant collagen production and accumulation of alternatively activated macrophages (M2) in the lower respiratory tract.

Diversity of Macrophages in Lung Homeostasis and Diseases
Lung macrophages play important roles in the maintenance of homeostasis, pathogen clearance and immune regulation. The different types of pulmonary macrophages and their roles in lung diseases have attracted attention in recent years.

Phagocytosis of aged human neutrophils by macrophages is mediated by a novel "charge-sensitive" recognition mechanism [PDF]
The removal of neutrophils and their histotoxic contents from the inflamed site is a prerequisite for resolution of tissue injury, and a point at which factors critical to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation may act.

Microbiota maintains host tissue homeostasis and influences tissue-resident macrophages. However, the mechanisms by which commensal bacteria in regulating the alveolar macrophages remain unclear. Here, by using an antibiotic-treated (Abt) mouse model, we

Tissue Resident Alveolar Macrophages Do Not Rely on Glycolysis for LPS-induced Inflammation.
Macrophage effector function is dynamic in nature and largely dependent upon not only the type of immunological challenge, but also the tissue-specific environment and developmental origin of a given macrophage population. Recent research has highlighted
