Two distinct interstitial macrophage populations coexist across tissues in specific subtissular niches

Science, 2019
Tissue macrophages have a split personality Resident tissue macrophages (RTMs) reside in various tissue-specific niches during development. They evince microenvironment-directed phenotypes that support host defense and tissue homeostasis. Chakarov et al.

Macrophages and angiogenesis

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1994
Abstract Macrophages are supposed to play a key role in inflammatory and tumor angiogenesis. Their importance derives from (1) their ubiquitous presence in normal and especially inflamed tissues, (2) their potential to become activated in response to appropriate stimuli, and (3) their repertoire of secretory products.

The alveolar macrophage

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1986
The alveolar macrophage is one of the few tissue macrophage populations readily accessible to study both in the human and in animals. Since harvesting of these cells by bronchoalveolar lavage was first described in 1961, alveolar macrophages have been extensively investigated.

Macrophages and the kidney

Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2004
Macrophage infiltration is a hallmark of all forms of inflammatory and non-inflammatory renal injury. However, the classical view of macrophages as cells that cause injury has been superseded with evidence of their heterogeneous role, i.e. with involvement in all stages of the inflammatory process including tissue repair and healing.

The Macrophage and Fibrinolysis [PDF]

open access: possibleSeminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 1996
The monocyte/macrophage plays a central role in fibrinolysis. Cell-surface of components of the plasminogen activator system leads to the elaboration of plasmin, which facilitates degradation of fibrin in the pericellular environment, as well as activation of matrixins, which promote degradation of matrix components.

The macrophage patrol

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2020
This study shows that alveolar macrophages patrol the lung to take up inhaled bacteria and that influenza virus infection can interfere with this function.

Macrophages in the thymus

Survey of Immunologic Research, 1985
Macrophages are a major population of thymic cells along with lymphocytes and epithelial cells. They are distributed in an apparently random manner throughout the cortex and medulla. Thymic macrophages express all of the various identifying characteristics associated with macrophages throughout the body including expression of a high level of class-I ...

The alveolar macrophage

1960
The alveolar macrophages, or dust cells, of the lung are cells which lie free within the air spaces of the lung alveoles. They have been extensively studied in the light microscope [for summary see (1)]. Their phagocytic potentialities are likewise known from light microscopic studies, in which dyes, India ink, or oils were injected into the trachea of
