EFFECT OF ESTRIOL ON THE FUNCTIONAL ACTIVITY OF MONOCYTES IN VITRO

Медицинская иммунология, 2014
. Employing an in vitro cellular system, we have studied effects of estriol at physiological concentrations corresponding to the 1st, 2nd , and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy upon phagocytic, bactericidal activity of monocytes, and their ability to form ...

Detection of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) technique [PDF]

, 2017
During the last decade there has been growing interest in physical-chemical oxidation processes and the behavior of free radicals in living systems. Radicals are known as intermediate species in a variety of biochemical reactions.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Liver Disease

Seminars in Liver Disease, 2019
AbstractNeutrophil extracellular traps, or NETs, are heterogenous, filamentous structures which consist of extracellular DNA, granular proteins, and histones. NETs are extruded by a neutrophil in response to various stimuli. Although NETs were initially implicated in immune defense, subsequent studies have implicated NETs in a spectrum of disease ...

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.

4D‐Printable Poly(Thio)urethane Photoresins With Reactive Oxygen Species Responsiveness and Anti‐Inflammatory Functionality

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces UV‐curable poly(thio)urethane (PSU) thermosets as 4D printable scaffolds responsive to oxidative stress. PSU networks with 100 wt.% polypropylene glycol (PPG) effectively suppress inflammatory markers in microglial cells to basal values.

In vitro induction of NETosis: Comprehensive live imaging comparison and systematic review [PDF]

, 2017
__Background__ Multiple inducers of in vitro Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) formation (NETosis) have been described. Since there is much variation in study design and results, our aim was to create a systematic review of NETosis inducers and perform

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Formation and Aggregation Orchestrate Induction and Resolution of Sterile Crystal-Mediated Inflammation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to immobilize pathogens represents a novel antimicrobial strategy of the immune system. The microcrystals related to human diseases are classified into endogenous microcrystals, including monosodium ...

Inflammation-induced DNA damage and damage-induced inflammation: a vicious cycle [PDF]

, 2014
Inflammation is the ultimate response to the constant challenges of the immune system by microbes, irritants or injury. The inflammatory cascade initiates with the recognition of microorganism-derived pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and ...

An Engineered Living Material With Pro‐Angiogenic Activity Inducible by Near‐Infrared Light

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
NIR‐responsive engineered living materials (ELMs) for controlled angiogenesis: Near‐infrared (800 nm) light activates engineered probiotic bacteria within alginate‐based living materials to secrete a blood vessel‐regenerating protein. The released protein promotes pro‐angiogenic effects in endothelial networks and chick chorioallantoic membranes.
