The intestinal lymphatic system: Functions and metabolic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The lymphatic system of the gut plays important roles in the transport of dietary lipids, as well as in immunosurveillance and removal of interstitial fluid.

Clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages induces regulatory phenotype and involves stimulation of cd36 and platelet-activating factor receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells (efferocytosis) induces macrophage differentiation towards a regulatory phenotype (IL-10high/IL-12p40low). CD36 is involved in the recognition of apoptotic cells (AC), and we have shown that the platelet-activating factor ...

CD36 Deficiency Rescues Lipotoxic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2007
Obesity-related diabetes mellitus leads to increased myocardial uptake of fatty acids (FAs), resulting in a form of cardiac dysfunction referred to as lipotoxic cardiomyopathy. We have shown previously that chronic activation of the FA-activated nuclear receptor, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), is sufficient to drive ...

Tumor stem cells fuse with monocytes to form highly invasive tumor-hybrid cells

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
The ‘cancer cell fusion’ theory is controversial due to the lack of methods available to identify hybrid cells and to follow the phenomenon in patients.

Menopause leads to elevated expression of macrophage-associated genes in the aging frontal cortex: rat and human studies identify strikingly similar changes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND The intricate interactions between the immune, endocrine and central nervous systems shape the innate immune response of the brain. We have previously shown that estradiol suppresses expression of immune genes in the frontal cortex of ...

Chronic Trypanosoma cruzi infection potentiates adipose tissue macrophage polarization toward an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype and contributes to diabetes progression in a diet-induced obesity model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Chronic obesity and Chagas disease (caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi) represent serious public health concerns. The interrelation between parasite infection, adipose tissue, immune system and metabolism in an obesogenic context, has not been ...

Prediction of B cell epitopes of CD36 and preparation of MAP

open access: yesZhongguo shuxue zazhi
Objective To analyze the structure of CD36, search the possible B cell epitopes and prepare multi-antigen peptides(MAP) with B cell epitopes, so as to provide a preliminary experimental basis for the preparation of CD36 antibodies using MAP with B cell ...

MicroRNA—A Tumor Trojan Horse for Tumor-Associated Macrophages

open access: yesCells, 2019
MicroRNAs (miRs) significantly contribute to the regulation of gene expression, by virtue of their ability to interact with a broad, yet specific set of target genes.

Interaction between CD36 and FABP4 modulates adipocyte-induced fatty acid import and metabolism in breast cancer

open access: yesnpj Breast Cancer, 2021
Adipocytes influence breast cancer behaviour via fatty acid release into the tumour microenvironment. Co-culturing human adipocytes and breast cancer cells increased CD36 expression, with fatty acid import into breast cancer cells.
