Tuberculosis, 2001
‘There is at bottom only one genuinely scienti9c treatment for all diseases, and that is to stimulate the phagocytes’. In his play, The Doctor’s Dilemma, George Bernard Shaw gives these lines to the trite and bombastic Sir Ralph Bloom9eld Bonington, but the sentiments are essentially those of Sir Almroth Edward Wright, a clinician-scientist friend of ...

Disorders of Phagocyte Chemotaxis
Annals of Internal Medicine, 1980Recent advances in understanding the physiologic and biochemical bases for recruitment of phagocytes to inflammatory sites has led to the recognition of patients who have recurrent infections because of abnormalities of phagocyte chemotaxis. In some of these patients there is abnormal chemoattractant mediator production or regulation, whereas in others

Measurement of nonopsonic phagocytic killing by human and mouse phagocytes
1994Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the methods for the quantitative measurement of phagocytosis and killing of bacteria by human and mouse neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages. Two common aqueous media are used to isolate neutrophils from blood: Percoll (a suspension of polyvinylpyrrolidone-coated colloidal silica) and a mixture of Ficoll (a

Experimental Cell Research, 1978
Abstract A method is described for obtaining pure monolayers of phagocytes from the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis in vitro. The coelomic fluid contains four types of cells. About 67% of the cells are phagocytes, the rest is comprised of the red and white morula cells and the vibratile cells.

Phagocyte Chemoattractant Receptors
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1997Myeloid cells are attracted and activated by a variety of chemoattractants that bind to G protein-coupled receptors. In the past few years, the receptors for the classical chemoattractants (fMLF, C5a, PAF) and the chemotactic cytokines, known as C-X-C and C-C chemokines, have been cloned from myeloid cells. This review briefly describes recent advances

The Respiratory Burst of Phagocytes
1988Studies on the oxygen metabolism of phagocytes began in 1933 with the observation that during phagoytosis, white blood cells (WBC) undergo a striking increase in oxygen consumption.1,2 These observations did not attract much attention until the 1950s, when the metabolic activities of neutrophils during phagocytosis of foreign matter were reinvestigated.

Disorders of Phagocyte Function
Archives of Dermatology, 1976An increasing number of phagocytic defects with cutaneous manifestations and signs in humans are being reported. With the increasing availability of phagocyte assays, detection of phagocyte defects will allow us to dissect the component events and more clearly understand the central role of the phagocytic leukocyte in host defenses of the skin.

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1986
The phagocytic system consists of mobile polymorphonuclear and mononuclear leukocytes and sessile macrophages. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes include granulocytes (also called neutrophils), eosinophils, and basophils. Since granulocytes are the most numerous phagocytic cells and are the most critical cells in host defense against microbial infections ...

Delivery of Antibiotics by Phagocytes
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1994Mobile phagocytes, especially polymorphonuclear neutrophils, accumulate at the site of many infections. This homing activity of phagocytes can be exploited as a mechanism for the delivery of antibiotics. To be effectively transported by neutrophils, antibiotics must be concentrated in neutrophils, must not interfere with the function of neutrophils ...
