Introduction: Although it is broadly known that monocyte recruitment is involved in atherosclerosis development and that, in accordance with the microenvironment, these cells can be modulated into three well-known subpopulations: Classical (CD14++CD16−),

Induction of reactive oxygen intermediates in human monocytes by tumour cells and their role in spontaneous monocyte cytotoxicity [PDF]
The present study examined the ability of human monocytes to produce reactive oxygen intermediates after a contact with tumour cells. Monocytes generated oxygen radicals, as measured by luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence and superoxide anion production, after stimulation with the tumour, but not with untransformed, cells.

IntroductionPrevious studies suggest that monocytes are an important contributor to tuberculosis (TB)-specific immune signatures in blood.MethodsHere, we carried out comprehensive single-cell profiling of monocytes in paired blood samples of active TB ...

Monocyte adaptations in patients with obesity during a 1.5 year lifestyle intervention
BackgroundObesity is associated with chronic, low-grade inflammation, which is reflected in altered peripheral blood monocyte characteristics. The aim of this study was to analyze the monocyte subset composition (classical (CM), intermediate (IM) and non-

Lymphokines Enhance the Capacity of Human Monocytes to Secrete Reactive Oxygen Intermediates [PDF]
Supernatants from mitogen- or antigen-stimulated human blood mononuclear cells enhanced the capacity of human monocytes or monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) to release H(2)O(2) or O(2) in response to phorbol myristate acetate or zymosan. The stimulatory effect of lymphokines (LK) lasted approximately 5 d, regardless of the time of their addition ...

Monocyte Phenotypes and Physical Activity in Patients with Carotid Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is associated with low-grade inflammation involving circulating monocytes. It has been shown that the levels of intermediate pro-inflammatory monocytes are associated with cardiovascular mortality and risk of ischemic stroke.

Chronic non-infectious inflammation of low intensity is the most important mechanism of development and progression in atherosclerosis. Under the conditions of persistent non-resolving inflammation observed in the vascular wall and atherosclerotic plaque

CCL2 recruits inflammatory monocytes to facilitate breast-tumour metastasis [PDF]
Macrophages, which are abundant in the tumour microenvironment, enhance malignancy. At metastatic sites, a distinct population of metastasis-associated macrophages promotes the extravasation, seeding and persistent growth of tumour cells.

Pregnancy and preeclampsia affect monocyte subsets in humans and rats. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Both nonclassical and intermediate monocytes have been implicated in different inflammatory conditions. We hypothesized that these monocytes would increase during pregnancy, a condition associated with generalized activation of inflammatory
