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.

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.

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 ...

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.

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

Immunological mechanisms involved in macrophage activation and polarization in schistosomiasis
Human schistosomiasis is caused by helminths of the genus Schistosoma. Macrophages play a crucial role in the immune regulation of this disease. These cells acquire different phenotypes depending on the type of stimulus they receive.

Microglia are professional phagocytes in the CNS. However, which cells scavenge corpses of microglia is largely neglected. Peng and colleagues found that nonprofessional phagocytes (astrocyte) phagocytose the debris of professional phagocytes (microglia).

The long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are evolutionarily conserved classes of non-coding regulatory transcripts of > 200 nucleotides in length. They modulate several transcriptional and post-transcriptional events in the organism.
