Trypanosoma cruzi recognition by macrophages and muscle cells: perspectives after a 15-year study

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1992
Macrophages and muscle cells are the main targets for invasion of Trypanosoma cruzi. Ultrastructural studies of this phenomenon in vitro showed that invasion occurs by endocytosis, with attachment and internalization being mediated by different ...

Effect of macrophage differentiation and exposure to mildly oxidized LDL on the proteolytic repertoire of THP-1 monocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2004
Lipid-laden monocyte/macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques can produce a range of proteinases capable of degrading components of the plaque extracellular matrix, an event that may weaken plaques, rendering them vulnerable to rupture.
