Introduction to Pharmacology of Macrophages with Drug Delivery Perspective
Ubiquitously present macrophages are an integral member of the innate immune system and are crucially involved in host defense and homeostasis. They... -
Carbon Monoxide-Releasing Molecule-3 Regulates the Polarization of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Macrophages
Macrophages show two main phenotypes, the M1-type (pro-inflammatory) and the M2-type (anti-inflammatory). The purpose of this research was to...

In Vitro Assays to Study Inflammasome Activation in Primary Macrophages
InflammasomesInflammasomes are multimeric complexes that can sense pathogens and danger signals in the environment. Upon detection of stimuli,... -
OSMR deficiency aggravates pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy by modulating macrophages and OSM/LIFR/STAT3 signalling
BackgroundOncostatin M (OSM) is a secreted cytokine of the interleukin (IL)-6 family that induces biological effects by activating functional...

Effects of Mycotoxins on Macrophages and Their Possible Clinical Implications
Fungi and their mycotoxins are ubiquitous, contaminating the air we breathe and the food we eat on a daily basis. Mycotoxins are considered a natural... -
SLAMF7 Promotes Foam Cell Formation of Macrophage by Suppressing NR4A1 Expression During Carotid Atherosclerosis
Macrophage-derived lipid-laden foam cells from the subendothelium play a crucial role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. However,...

Exosomal PGE2 from M2 macrophages inhibits neutrophil recruitment and NET formation through lipid mediator class switching in sepsis
BackgroundExcess polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) recruitment or excessive neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation can lead to the...

Autotaxin stimulates LPA2 receptor in macrophages and exacerbates dextran sulfate sodium-induced acute colitis
AbstractAutotaxin (ATX) is a secreted enzyme that hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and choline. ATX has been...

Galectin-3 Mediates Endotoxin Internalization and Caspase-4/11 Activation in Tubular Epithelials and Macrophages During Sepsis and Sepsis-Associated Acute Kidney Injury
Besides being recognized by membrane receptor TLR4, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can also be internalized into the cytosol and activate Caspase-4/11...

Rab11b promotes M1-like macrophage polarization by restraining autophagic degradation of NLRP3 in alcohol-associated liver disease
Macrophage polarization is vital to mounting a host defense or repairing tissue in various liver diseases. Excessive activation of the NLR family...
