The Landscape of SPP1+ Macrophages Across Tissues and Diseases: A Comprehensive Review
Immunology, EarlyView.SPP1+ macrophages represent a conserved, disease‐associated population present across cancerous and non‐cancerous conditions, involved in immunosuppression, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes. This review highlights their shared molecular programmes across tissues, their interactions with stromal and immune cells ...

Murine models of renal disease: Possibilities and problems in studies using mutant mice [PDF]
, 2000 The elucidation of the pathogenesis of human renal disease at the molecular level has been facilitated by the growing field of gene targeting and the development of mouse strains with single-gene deletions - the `knock-out' mice. Experimental nephrology,

Life at new extremes: Integrating stress physiology and the bio‐exposome in the Anthropocene
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.We propose to expand the concept of extreme environments to encompass those that are profoundly altered by climate and global changes, highlight the critical role of stress resilience in understanding how the exposome interacts with intracellular processes (bio‐exposome) in wildlife, emphasize how such interactions are relevant to the human bio ...

Evaluation of Hybridoma B9 cell line handling of Cadmium in the presence of Interleukin-6
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2005 Induction of metallothionein synthesis in the presence or absence of Interleukin –6 (IL-6) was one of the responses examined to identify the mechanism by which IL-6 (at high concentration) was able to reverse cadmium inhibition of B9 cell line ...
