A hitchhiker's guide to myeloid cell subsets: practical implementation of a novel mononuclear phagocyte classification system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The classification of mononuclear phagocytes as either dendritic cells or macrophages has been mainly based on morphology, the expression of surface markers, and assumed functional specialization.

Skap2 is required for β2 integrin-mediated neutrophil recruitment and functions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Integrin activation is required for neutrophil functions. Impaired integrin activation on neutrophils is the hallmark of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) syndrome in humans, characterized by impaired leukocyte recruitment and recurrent infections. The

SIRPα Controls the Activity of the Phagocyte NADPH Oxidase by Restricting the Expression of gp91phox

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
The phagocyte NADPH oxidase mediates oxidative microbial killing in granulocytes and macrophages. However, because the reactive oxygen species produced by the NADPH oxidase can also be toxic to the host, it is essential to control its activity. Little is

Microglial SIRPα regulates the emergence of CD11c+ microglia and demyelination damage in white matter

open access: yeseLife, 2019
A characteristic subset of microglia expressing CD11c appears in response to brain damage. However, the functional role of CD11c+ microglia, as well as the mechanism of its induction, are poorly understood.

Duality of β-glucan microparticles: antigen carrier and immunostimulants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Designing efficient recombinant mucosal vaccines against enteric diseases is still a major challenge. Mucosal delivery of recombinant vaccines requires encapsulation in potent immunostimulatory particles to induce an efficient immune response. This paper

The matricellular protein TSP1 promotes human and mouse endothelial cell senescence through CD47 and Nox1. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Senescent cells withdraw from the cell cycle and do not proliferate. The prevalence of senescent compared to normally functioning parenchymal cells increases with age, impairing tissue and organ homeostasis. A contentious principle governing this process

Effects of a humanized CD47 antibody and recombinant SIRPα proteins on triple negative breast carcinoma stem cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Signal regulatory protein-α (SIRPα, SHPS-1, CD172a) expressed on myeloid cells transmits inhibitory signals when it engages its counter-receptor CD47 on an adjacent cell.

Notch Signaling Modulates Macrophage Polarization and Phagocytosis Through Direct Suppression of Signal Regulatory Protein α Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The Notch pathway plays critical roles in the development and functional modulation of myeloid cells. Previous studies have demonstrated that Notch activation promotes M1 polarization and phagocytosis of macrophages; however, the downstream molecular ...

Targeting CD47/SIRPα as a therapeutic strategy, where we are and where we are headed

open access: yesBiomarker Research, 2022
Immunotherapy using PD-1 and CTLA4 inhibitors to stimulate T cell immunity has achieved significant clinical success. However, only a portion of patients benefit from T cell-based immunotherapy.

An in vitro model to assess the immunosuppressive effect of tick saliva on the mobilization of inflammatory monocyte-derived cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tick-borne pathogens cause potent infections. These pathogens benefit from molecules contained in tick saliva that have evolved to modulate host innate and adaptive immune responses.
