SeV C Protein Plays a Role in Restricting Macrophage Phagocytosis by Limiting the Generation of Intracellular Double-Stranded RNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022

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.

Impaired clearance of early apoptotic cells mediated by inhibitory IgG antibodies in patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
OBJECTIVES: Deficient efferocytosis (i.e. phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells) has been frequently reported in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

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-3 and scavenger-receptor-AI/II mediated myelin phagocytosis in microglia and macrophages

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2003
Microglia and macrophages express the αM/β2 integrin complement-receptor-3 (CR3/MAC-1; CD11b/CD18) and scavenger-receptor-AI/II (SRAI/II). Both can mediate myelin phagocytosis.

Regulatory Role of Fc Receptor in mIgM+ B Lymphocyte Phagocytosis in Flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus)

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Fc receptor (FcR) is an important opsonin receptor on the surface of immune cells, playing an important role in antibody-dependent cell-mediated immunity.

Phagocytosis in Teleosts. Implications of the New Cells Involved

open access: yesBiology, 2015
Phagocytosis is the process by which cells engulf some solid particles to form internal vesicles known as phagosomes. Phagocytosis is in fact a specific form of endocytosis involving the vesicular interiorization of particles. Phagocytosis is essentially

Phagocytosis of microparticles increases responsiveness of macrophage-like cell lines U937 and THP-1 to bacterial lipopolysaccharide and lipopeptide

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Following bacterial infection, macrophages produce pro-inflammatory cytokines in response to bacterial cell components, including lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipopeptide, and simultaneously phagocytize and digest the invading bacteria.

PD-1 expression by tumor-associated macrophages inhibits phagocytosis and tumor immunity

open access: yesNature, 2017
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is an immune checkpoint receptor that is upregulated on activated T cells for the induction of immune tolerance.
