Phagosomal transport depends strongly on phagosome size [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
AbstractMacrophages internalize pathogens for intracellular degradation. An important part of this process is the phagosomal transport from the cell periphery to the perinuclear region. Biochemical factors are known to influence the fate of phagosomes. Here, we show that the size of phagosomes also has a strong influence on their transport.

Macrophage‐derived MLKL in alcohol‐associated liver disease: Regulation of phagocytosis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
EtOH causes leaky gut allowing bacteria and PAMPs into the liver, resulting in hepatic inflammation and injury. We demonstrate that LPS induces STAT1‐mediated expression and phosphorylation of MLKL in macrophages and identify a novel function that myeloid MLKL translocates to phagosomes and lysosomes and regulates phagocytosis, which contributes to the

The phagosome proteome: insight into phagosome functions. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 2001
Phagosomes are key organelles for the innate ability of macrophages to participate in tissue remodeling, clear apoptotic cells, and restrict the spread of intracellular pathogens. To understand the functions of phagosomes, we initiated the systematic identification of their proteins.

TRPC6 channel translocation into phagosomal membrane augments phagosomal function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2015
SignificanceHistorically, pulmonary infections treated with antibiotics killed bacteria while selecting for the unintended development of pathogenic resistance. One strategy to circumvent antibiotic resistance in pulmonary infection involves targeting the host phagosome and augmenting its function.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 1999
The arrest of Mycobacterium tuberculosis phagosome maturation in infected macrophages is a phenomenon of dual significance both for the pathogenesis of tuberculosis and as a model system to study interference of microbes with membrane trafficking and organelle biogenesis in host cells.

Real-time imaging of Leishmania mexicana-infected early phagosomes: a study using primary macrophages generated from green fluorescent protein-Rab5 transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The small GTPase Rab5 is a key regulator of endosome/phagosome maturation and in intravesicular infections marks a phagosome stage at which decisions over pathogen replication or destruction are integrated.

Breaching the Bacterial Envelope: The Pivotal Role of Perforin-2 (MPEG1) Within Phagocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The membrane attack complex (MAC) of the complement system and Perforin-1 are well characterized innate immune effectors. MAC is composed of C9 and other complement proteins that target the envelope of gram-negative bacteria.

Phagosome-lysosome fusion is a calcium-independent event in macrophages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Phagosome-lysosome membrane fusion is a highly regulated event that is essential for intracellular killing of microorganisms. Functionally, it represents a form of polarized regulated secretion, which is classically dependent on increases in ...
