Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Recognition and phagocytosis of apoptotic T cells by resident murine tissue macrophages require multiple signal transduction events.
- Activation of protein kinase C beta II by the stereo-specific phosphatidylserine receptor is required for phagocytosis of apoptotic thymocytes by resident murine tissue macrophages.
- Enhancing antitumor immunity perioperatively: a matter of timing, cooperation, and specificity.
- Syk activation is a leukotriene B4-regulated event involved in macrophage phagocytosis of IgG-coated targets but not apoptotic cells.
- Resident murine alveolar and peritoneal macrophages differ in adhesion of apoptotic thymocytes.
- The receptor tyrosine kinase MerTK activates phospholipase C gamma2 during recognition of apoptotic thymocytes by murine macrophages.
- Specific engagement of TLR4 or TLR3 does not lead to IFN-beta-mediated innate signal amplification and STAT1 phosphorylation in resident murine alveolar macrophages.
- Monocytes recruited to the lungs of mice during immune inflammation ingest apoptotic cells poorly.
- CCR2 and CCR6, but not endothelial selectins, mediate the accumulation of immature dendritic cells within the lungs of mice in response to particulate antigen.
- Cell-mediated adaptive immune defense of the lungs.
- Conserved nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae-derived TLR2-binding lipopeptides synergize with IFN-beta to increase cytokine production by resident murine and human alveolar macrophages.
- Procalcitonin-guided antibiotic therapy in COPD exacerbations: closer but not quite there.
- Gender and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: why it matters.
- Sex, depression, and risk of hospitalization and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
- Pneumocystis murina infection and cigarette smoke exposure interact to cause increased organism burden, development of airspace enlargement, and pulmonary inflammation in mice.
