These cells deploy complex cytoskeletal rearrangements to recognize and eliminate potential threats 3. Even in the steady state, myeloid cells constantly survey their surroundings for potential ...

Phagocytosis is regulated by the mechanical properties of both the phagocyte and its cargo. Here, the authors show that macrophages employ β2 integrins to sense the rigidity of phagocytic cargo ...

The protein is largely secreted by a type of phagocyte called a macrophage, which relies on the ROS molecules generated by the respiratory burst to finish off pathogens they've consumed.

The 40 monogenic defects with IBD-like pathology selected in this review can be grouped into defects in intestinal epithelial barrier and stress response, immunodeficiencies affecting granulocyte and ...

OPG inhibits this process, most probably by interrupting the cell-cell interaction between osteoblasts and mononuclear phagocyte osteoclast precursors present in the pseudomembrane.
