From Species to Regional and Local Specialization of Intestinal Macrophages
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Initially intended for nutrient uptake, phagocytosis represents a central mechanism of debris removal and host defense against invading pathogens through the entire animal kingdom. In vertebrates and also many invertebrates, macrophages (MFs) and MF-like

Macrophages in Lung Injury, Repair, and Fibrosis
Cells, 2021 Fibrosis progression in the lung commonly results in impaired functional gas exchange, respiratory failure, or even death. In addition to the aberrant activation and differentiation of lung fibroblasts, persistent alveolar injury and incomplete repair ...

The pulmonary macrophage. [PDF]
Environmental Health Perspectives, 1976 An overview of the pulmonary macrophage is provided, with particular emphasis on the origin of this cell and the adaptive mechanisms whereby the macrophagic system is able to respond to increased inhalant loads of organic and inorganic pollutants. Evidence is presented which favors an hematopoietic origin for the alveolar macrophage with a monocytic ...

Vascular Macrophages as Therapeutic Targets to Treat Intracranial Aneurysms
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a highly fatal and morbid type of hemorrhagic strokes. Intracranial aneurysms (ICAs) rupture cause subarachnoid hemorrhage.
