The tumor-educated-macrophage increase of malignancy of human pancreatic cancer is prevented by zoledronic acid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We previously defined macrophages harvested from the peritoneal cavity of nude mice with subcutaneous human pancreatic tumors as "tumor-educated-macrophages" (Edu) and macrophages harvested from mice without tumors as "naïve-macrophages" (Naïve), and ...

Distinct Responses to IL4 in Macrophages Mediated by JNK

open access: yesCells, 2023
IL(Interleukin)-4 is the main macrophage M2-type activator and induces an anti-inflammatory phenotype called alternative activation. The IL-4 signaling pathway involves the activation of STAT (Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription)-6 and ...

GM-CSF Protects Macrophages from DNA Damage by Inducing Differentiation

open access: yesCells, 2022
At inflammatory loci, pro-inflammatory activation of macrophages produces large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that induce DNA breaks and apoptosis. Given that M-CSF and GM-CSF induce two different pathways in macrophages, one for proliferation

Matrix Stiffening Enhances DNCB-Induced IL-6 Secretion in Keratinocytes Through Activation of ERK and PI3K/Akt Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Matrix stiffness, a critical physical property of the cellular environment, is implicated in epidermal homeostasis. In particular, matrix stiffening during the pathological progression of skin diseases appears to contribute to cellular responses of ...

Pulmonary macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 1994
Interest in pulmonary macrophage research has greatly increased as is now possible not only to work with the easily accessible alveolar macrophages but also with macrophages prepared from lung tissue, such as the interstitial macrophages, dendritic cells and intravascular macrophages.

The complex TIE between macrophages and angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Macrophages are primarily known as phagocytic immune cells, but they also play a role in diverse processes, such as morphogenesis, homeostasis and regeneration.

Age-related changes to macrophages are detrimental to fracture healing in mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The elderly population suffers from higher rates of complications during fracture healing that result in increased morbidity and mortality. Inflammatory dysregulation is associated with increased age and is a contributing factor to the myriad of age ...

A User-Friendly Approach for Routine Histopathological and Morphometric Analysis of Skeletal Muscle Using CellProfiler Software

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Adult skeletal muscle is capable of active and efficient differentiation in the event of injury in both physiological and pathological conditions, such as in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
