Regulators of phagocytosis as pharmacologic targets for stroke treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Stroke, including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, causes massive cell death in the brain, which is followed by secondary inflammatory injury initiated by disease-associated molecular patterns released from dead cells. Phagocytosis, a cellular process of

In vitro analysis of anti-HPA-1a dependent platelet phagocytosis and its inhibition using a new whole blood phagocytosis assay (WHOPPA)

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is a serious bleeding condition mostly caused by the reaction between maternal anti-HPA-1a antibodies and fetal platelets. This reaction leads to Fc-dependent platelet phagocytosis.

A genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to identify phagocytosis modulators in monocytic THP-1 cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Phagocytosis of microbial pathogens, dying or dead cells, and cell debris is essential to maintain tissue homeostasis. Impairment of these processes is associated with autoimmunity, developmental defects and toxic protein accumulation.

Phagocytosis is a primary determinant of pulmonary clearance of clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionKlebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a common cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia. Although previous studies have suggested that evasion of phagocytic uptake is a virulence determinant of Kp, few studies have examined phagocytosis sensitivity in ...

Complement Receptor-Mediated Phagocytosis Induces Proinflammatory Cytokine Production in Murine Macrophages

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Macrophages are professional phagocytes that are uniquely situated between the innate and adaptive arms of immunity with a high capacity for phagocytosis and proinflammatory cytokine production as well as antigen presentation.
