In this study, we compared the oxidative stress intensity between lung epithelial cells (A549) and monocyte-macrophage cells (Raw264.7) after PM2.5 treatments and explored the major generation mechanism of ROS in both cell lines. We found that Raw264.7 was more sensitive to PM2.5-induced ...
Mosaicism, caused by X chromosome inactivation, is one mechanism by which females can have an immune advantage over males, but there are also other features associated with the X chromosome that can modulate differences between female and male immune responses and even lead to immunological difference...
What is the Difference Between Microphage and Macrophage? Microphage and macrophage are two types of phagocytes present in our blood. Microphage is a small polymorphonuclear phagocyte which lives for a few days while macrophage is a large phagocyte that starts life as monocyte and lives for a long...
Macrophage is a large phagocytic cell found in the immune system. They stay in their stationary form in the tissues or as mobile white blood cells at sites of infection. In Greek, macrophages mean “big eaters”. Macrophages engulf and digest cellular debris, foreign substances, pathogens,cancer...

In the plant world, rice genome and Arabidopsis genomes have been sequenced. Knowledge of these sequences will undoubtedly revolutionize our understanding of how cells and organisms function. Figure_2: An autoradiograph of sanger sequencing What is the difference between Genotyping and Sequencing?
The only effective weapon still remains the disease prevention, to be achieved with the reduction of promiscuity between the animal reservoirs of these zoonotic diseases and humans.
