Immunology Today, 1989 Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the molecular biology of the leukocyte integrins, LFA-1, Mac-1, and p150,95, and on their role in mediating inflammation. Three recent developments have underscored the importance of the leukocyte integrins as adhesion receptors of the immune system: The recognition that the leukocyte integrins are ...

Leukocyte adhesion - a fundamental process in leukocyte physiology [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999 Leukocyte adhesion is of pivotal functional importance. The adhesion involves several different adhesion molecules, the most important of which are the leukocyte beta 2-integrins (CD11/CD18), the intercellular adhesion molecules, and the selectins.

Transfusion of Leukocytes and Products of Disintegrated Leukocytes.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1949 Summary and Conclusions1. Leukocytes were obtained in large numbers by introduction of large amounts of physiologic salt solution into the peritoneal cavity of rabbits.2. Intravenous administration of these cells to the same or different animals was followed by very rapidly developing and severe leukopenia.

European Journal of Cell Biology, 2006 Myeloid leukocytes are the first line of host defence. When they sense perturbations in tissue homeostasis such as infection, inflammation and ischemia, they respond by trafficking. Whilst neutrophils and macrophages migrate to sites of infection, dendritic cells (DC) migrate from tissue-resident sites back into lymph nodes where they activate T and B ...

Quick Leukocyte Nucleus Segmentation in Leukocyte Counting [PDF]
Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, 2019 The leukocyte nucleus quick segmentation is one of the key techniques in leukocyte real-time online scanning of human blood smear. We propose a quick leukocyte nucleus segmentation method based on the component difference in RGB color space. By analyzing the captured microscopic images of the peripheral blood smears from the autoscanning microscope, it

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).
