Exposure duration of ambient fine particulate matter determines the polarization of macrophages
Central European Journal of Immunology, 2023 Ambient fine particulate matter (FPM) promotes airway inflammation and aggravates respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Macrophage polarization plays an essential role in FPM-induced inflammation and tissue repair.

Evolutionary Aspects of Macrophages Polarization [PDF]
, 2017 Macrophages constitute a heterogeneous population of myeloid cells that are essential for maintaining homeostasis and as a first line of innate responders controlling and organizing host defenses against pathogens. Monocyte-macrophage lineage cells are among the most functionally diverse and plastic cells of the immune system.

Implications of macrophage polarization in autoimmunity [PDF]
Immunology, 2018 SummaryMacrophages are extremely heterogeneous and plastic cells with an important role not only in physiological conditions, but also during inflammation (both for initiation and resolution). In the early 1990s, two different phenotypes of macrophages were described: one of them called classically activated (or inflammatory) macrophages (M1) and the ...

Effects of Metabolism on Macrophage Polarization Under Different Disease Backgrounds
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Macrophages are versatile immune cells associated with various diseases, and their phenotypes and functions change on the basis of the surrounding environments. Reprogramming of metabolism is required for the proper polarization of macrophages.

A lipid-structured mathematical model of atherosclerosis with macrophage proliferation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We extend the lipid-structured model for atherosclerotic plaque development of Ford et al. (2019) to account for macrophage proliferation. Proliferation is modelled as a non-local decrease in the lipid structural variable that is similar to the treatment of cell division in size-structured models (e.g. Efendiev et al. (2018)).

Treating Macrophages with Anti-inflammatory Nanoparticles as a Strategy to Improve Muscle Repair [PDF]
, 2019 The macrophage is an immune cell that is involved in host defense. More recent research, however, has revealed that they also play a central role in mediating the skeletal muscle regenerative process.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Induced Polarization of Human Macrophage Orchestrates the Formation and Development of Tuberculous Granulomas In Vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The tuberculous granuloma is an elaborately organized structure and one of the main histological hallmarks of tuberculosis. Macrophages, which are important immunologic effector and antigen-presenting cells, are the main cell type found in the ...
