Helminth Infections: Recognition and Modulation of the Immune Response by Innate Immune Cells [PDF]
The survival of helminths in the host over long periods of time is the result of a process of adaptation or dynamic co-evolution between the host and the parasite. However, infection with helminth parasites causes damage to the host tissues producing the

The mechanisms that lead to disease onset and propagation in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) are not fully elucidated. Maresins (MaR) are a family of essential fatty acid-derived lipid mediators that play a central role in the regulation of ...

A hitchhiker's guide to myeloid cell subsets: practical implementation of a novel mononuclear phagocyte classification system [PDF]
The classification of mononuclear phagocytes as either dendritic cells or macrophages has been mainly based on morphology, the expression of surface markers, and assumed functional specialization.

Phagocyte Chemoattraction Is Induced through the Mcp-1–Ccr2 Axis during Efferocytosis
Apoptotic cells generated during development and for tissue homeostasis are swiftly and continuously removed by phagocytes via a process called efferocytosis.

EFFECT OF INTRACRANIAL CATHETER PLACEMENT ON MICROGLIA METABOLIC PROFILE OF RATS [PDF]
The aim of the work was to investigate the effect of the intracranial catheter placement on the metabolic profile of rat microglia. Microglial cells were isolated by the centrifugation in Percoll gradient.

Pleiotropic effects of PPAR-α – from benchside to bedside
Here we review literature data on properties of a member of nuclear hormone receptors - peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α. It was shown that PPARα was expressed on different cells including dendritic cells, macrophages, B- and T-cells.

The immediate and natural reaction to both infectious challenges and sterile insults (wounds, tissue trauma or crystal deposition) is an acute inflammatory response. This inflammatory response is mediated by activation of the innate immune system largely

It is known that peptides inhibit the enzymes of viruses and are able to penetrate into cells by their embedding in the cell membrane, as a result of which the penetration of viruses into the host cell is blocked, which makes it possible to consider ...
