Macrophages in cholangiopathies

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2021
Purpose of review Cholangiopathies are a heterogeneous class of liver diseases where cholangiocytes are the main targets of liver injury. Although available and emerging therapies mainly target bile acids (ursodeoxycholic acid/UDCA, 24-Norursodeoxycholic acid/norUDCA) and related signaling pathways (obeticholic acid, fibrates ...

Macrophages and cancer

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2008
Macrophages are ubiquitous cells physiologically involved in a variety of processes including pathogen destruction, inflammation, tissue repair and remodeling. They have a highly plastic phenotype and their functional polarization is determined by cytokines and factors found within local microenvironments.

The Macrophage

2011
Macrophages are a diverse phenotype of professional phagocytic cells derived from bone-marrow precursors and parent monocytes in the peripheral blood. They are essential for the maintenance and defence of host tissues, doing so by sensing and engulfing particulate matter and, when necessary, initiating a pro-inflammatory response.

Atherosclerosis and Macrophages

Acta Pathologica Japonica, 1989
Atherosclerosis is undoubtedly a disease of many facets and in this review we have merely touched one angle of this issue. The best‐established cause of the disease is hyper‐cholesterolemia. Since the important role of macrophages in lipoprotein metabolism has been confirmed, current interest is focused on the role of macrophages in atherosclerosis ...

The macrophage

BioEssays, 1995
AbstractThe macrophage plays an important role in host development and physiology, and in pathogenesis of many infectious, immunologic and degenerative disease processes. It displays marked heterogeneity of phenotype in different tissues, reflecting local interactions with other cell types, and contributes to host homeostasis through a varied ...

Macrophage Polarization

Annual Review of Physiology, 2017
Macrophage polarization refers to how macrophages have been activated at a given point in space and time. Polarization is not fixed, as macrophages are sufficiently plastic to integrate multiple signals, such as those from microbes, damaged tissues, and the normal tissue environment.

Macrophage Interactions

2002
B. anthracis virulence is the sum of the contributions of factors involved in toxicity, growth and persistence in the host. Recent data has revealed that the interactions between B. anthracis and macrophage is central to the B. anthracis pathogenesis. This review presents and describes tactics by which B.

Macrophages and cancer

Cancer and Metastasis Reviews, 1990
The uncontrolled growth of metastases resistant to conventional therapeutic modalities is a major cause of death from cancer. Data from our laboratory and others indicate that metastases arise from the nonrandom spread of specialized malignant cells that preexist within a primary neoplasm.

Alveolar Macrophages

Cellular Immunology, 2018
Alveolar macrophages are the most abundant innate immune cells in the distal lung parenchyma, located on the luminal surface of the alveolar space. They are the first to encounter incoming pathogens and pollutants and to help orchestrate the initiation and resolution of the immune response in the lung.

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.
