Caffeine affects the biological responses of human hematopoietic cells of myeloid lineage via downregulation of the mTOR pathway and xanthine oxidase activity [PDF]
Correction of human myeloid cell function is crucial for the prevention of inflammatory and allergic reactions as well as leukaemia progression. Caffeine, a naturally occurring food component, is known to display anti-inflammatory effects which have ...

Search for the presence of occult hepatitis C in patients with treatment-induced viral clearance using an ultrasensitive assay [PDF]
Introduction. Occult hepatitis C is defined by the presence of virus in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and/or liver cells, in the absence of serum viremia. Objective.

Elevated ACKR2 expression is a common feature of inflammatory arthropathies [PDF]
Objectives. Chemokines are essential contributors to leucocyte accumulation at sites of inflammatory pathology. Interfering with chemokine or chemokine receptor function therefore represents a plausible therapeutic option.

A Chemotactic Factor for Mononuclear Leukocytes
SummaryChemotactic activity for mononuclear leukocytes was produced when highly purified guinea pig C5 was cleaved by trypsin or by the earlier acting complement components. This chemotactic activity was mediated by C5a, a fragmentation product of the fifth component of complement.

Microchimerism, dendritic cell progenitors and transplantation tolerance [PDF]
The recent discovery of multilineage donor leukocyte microchimerism in allograft recipients up to three decades after organ transplantation implies the migration and survival of donor stem cells within the host.

M-DC8+leukocytes - A novel human dendritic cell population [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DC) constitute a heterogeneous leukocyte population having in common a unique capacity to induce primary T cell responses and are therefore most attractive candidates for immunomodulatory strategies.

Isolation of Infiltrating Leukocytes from the Spinal Cord of Mice
The infiltration of leukocytes into the central nervous system (CNS) is a common feature of many neuroinflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis, and also occurs during certain microbial infections such as by West Nile Virus.

Confocal laser scanning microscope, raman microscopy and western blotting to evaluate inflammatory response after myocardial infarction [PDF]
Cardiac muscle necrosis is associated with inflammatory cascade that clears the infarct from dead cells and matrix debris, and then replaces the damaged tissue with scar, through three overlapping phases: the inflammatory phase, the proliferative phase
