Basic Characterization of Japanese Quail Peritoneal Macrophages Induced by Thioglycollate

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2004
This paper describes the morphology, phagocytic capacity, and response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of peritoneal macrophages (Mφ) from Japanese quail, following induction by thioglycollate.

In vivo manipulation of the extracellular matrix induces vascular regression in a basal chordate. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigated the physical role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in vascular homeostasis in the basal chordate Botryllus schlosseri, which has a large, transparent, extracorporeal vascular network encompassing an area >100 cm2 We found that the ...

Focusing on Phagocytes [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2016
2016 marks the centenary of the death of Elie Metchnikoff, whose 19th-century studies of starfish larvae led to the description of immune cell phagocytosis. This discovery, along with follow-up studies, earned Metchnikoff the 1908 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. We have come a long way since those early discoveries. A hundred years later, we now

The Mononuclear Phagocyte System in Organ Transplantation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Transplantation, 2016
The mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) comprises monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs). Over the past few decades, classification of the cells of the MPS has generated considerable controversy.

The Complexity of Fungal β-Glucan in Health and Disease: Effects on the Mononuclear Phagocyte System

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
β-glucan, the most abundant fungal cell wall polysaccharide, has gained much attention from the scientific community in the last few decades for its fascinating but not yet fully understood immunobiology.

Effects of stress on the immune system of fish [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The effects of stress on the immune system of various fish species including dab Limanda limanda, flounder Platichthys flesus, sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax and gobies Zosterisessor ophiocephalus, were investigated from laboratory and field experiments ...

Human and Mouse Mononuclear Phagocyte Networks: A Tale of Two Species?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Dendritic cells (DCs), monocytes, and macrophages are a heterogeneous population of mononuclear phagocytes that are involved in antigen processing and presentation to initiate and regulate immune responses to pathogens, vaccines, tumor, and tolerance to ...

From the Reticuloendothelial to Mononuclear Phagocyte System – The Unaccounted Years

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
It is over 125 years since Ilya Metchnikoff described the significance of phagocytosis. In this review, we examine the early origins and development of macrophage research continuing after his death in 1916, through the period of the reticuloendothelial ...

Regulation of Phagocyte Migration by Signal Regulatory Protein-Alpha Signaling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Signaling through the inhibitory receptor signal regulatory protein-alpha (SIRPα) controls effector functions in phagocytes. However, there are also indications that interactions between SIRPα and its ligand CD47 are involved in phagocyte ...
