The nuclear receptor LXRα controls the functional specialization of splenic macrophages. [PDF]
, 2013 Macrophages are professional phagocytic cells that orchestrate innate immune responses and have considerable phenotypic diversity at different anatomical locations. However, the mechanisms that control the heterogeneity of tissue macrophages are not well

The role of macrophage in lung injury, repair and regeneration
生物医学转化, 2023 The risk of lung injury induced by microorganism infection or other physical/chemical insults is high due to the nature that the lung is constantly exposed to microbiota through inhalation. The lung was previously thought to be a highly quiescent tissue,

Modulation of apoprotein E secretion in response to receptor-mediated endocytosis in resident and inflammatory macrophages. [PDF]
, 1984 We have determined the effect of various endocytic ligands on the secretion of ApoE by macrophages. ApoE was a major secreted protein of resident macrophages, but BCG-activated macrophages secreted little ApoE and periodate-elicited macrophages secreted ...
