Phagocytic Uptake ofEncephalitozoon cuniculiby Nonprofessional Phagocytes [PDF]
ABSTRACTEncephalitozoon cuniculiis an obligate intracellular, spore-forming parasite belonging to the microsporidia that can cause disseminated infection in immunocompromised persons.E. cuniculispores infect host cells by germination, i.e., by explosively everting the polar filament, through which the spore contents (sporoplasms) are subsequently ...

Lysosome remodelling and adaptation during phagocyte activation
Lysosomes are acidic and hydrolytic organelles responsible for receiving and digesting cargo acquired during endocytosis, phagocytosis, and autophagy. For macrophages and dendritic cells, the lysosome is kingpin, playing a direct role in microbe killing ...

The Peyer’s Patch Mononuclear Phagocyte System at Steady State and during Infection
The gut represents a potential entry site for a wide range of pathogens including protozoa, bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Consequently, it is protected by one of the largest and most diversified population of immune cells of the body.

Expression of ID4 protein in breast cancer cells induces reprogramming of tumour-associated macrophages [PDF]
Background: As crucial regulators of the immune response against pathogens, macrophages have been extensively shown also to be important players in several diseases, including cancer. Specifically, breast cancer macrophages tightly control the angiogenic

Vomocytosis: Too Much Booze, Base, or Calcium? [PDF]
Macrophages are well known for their phagocytic activity and their role in innate immune responses. Macrophages eat non-self particles, via a variety of mechanisms, and typically break down internalized cargo into small macromolecules.
