Primary Phagocytosis of Neurons by Inflamed Microglia: Potential Roles in Neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Microglial phagocytosis of dead or dying neurons can be beneficial by preventing secondary necrosis and release of pro-inflammatory intracellular components.

Extracellular Matrix Protein Tenascin C Increases Phagocytosis Mediated by CD47 Loss of Function in Glioblastoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Glioblastomas (GBM) are highly infiltrated by myeloid-derived innate immune cells that contribute to the immunosuppressive nature of the brain tumor microenvironment (TME).

Targeting the myeloid checkpoint receptor SIRPα potentiates innate and adaptive immune responses to promote anti-tumor activity

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2020
Background Signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα) is a myeloid-lineage inhibitory receptor that restricts innate immunity through engagement of its cell surface ligand CD47.

Insights into Thymus Development and Viral Thymic Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
T-cell development in the thymus is a complex and highly regulated process, involving a wide variety of cells and molecules which orchestrate thymocyte maturation into either CD4+ or CD8+ single-positive (SP) T cells.

The serum opsonin L-ficolin is detected in lungs of human transplant recipients following fungal infections and modulates inflammation and killing of Aspergillus fumigatus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a life-threatening systemic fungal infection in immunocompromised individuals that is caused by Aspergillus fumigatus. The human serum opsonin, L-ficolin, has been observed to recognize A.

Suppression of ILC2 differentiation from committed T cell precursors by E protein transcription factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Current models propose that group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are generated in the bone marrow. Here, we demonstrate that subsets of these cells can differentiate from multipotent progenitors and committed T cell precursors in the thymus, both in ...

CCR2⁺CD103⁻ intestinal dendritic cells develop from DC-committed precursors and induce interleukin-17 production by T cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The identification of intestinal macrophages (m phi s) and dendritic cells (DCs) is a matter of intense debate. Although CD103(+) mononuclear phagocytes (MPs) appear to be genuine DCs, the nature and origins of CD103(-) MPs remain controversial.

Biomimetic Nano‐Degrader Based CD47‐SIRPα Immune Checkpoint Inhibition Promotes Macrophage Efferocytosis for Cardiac Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science
CD47‐SIRPα axis is an immunotherapeutic target in tumor therapy. However, current monoclonal antibody targeting CD47‐SIRPα axis is associated with on‐target off‐tumor and antigen sink effects, which significantly limit its potential clinical application.

The expression of signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) in periodontal cells and tissue

open access: yesActa Odontologica Scandinavica
Signal regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα) is mainly expressed by cells of myeloid origin. This membrane glycoprotein is shown to be involved in regulation of different inflammatory conditions, such as colitis and arthritis.
