Conclusion Role of osteoimmunology, macrophages, mesenchymal stem cells, growth factors, hormones and nerves in tooth socket healing have been ignored for long. These factors can result in impaired wound healing or disruption the healing process. Understanding the mechanisms involved in tooth socket ...
'The activating immunoglobulin-like receptor, subfamily A, member 2 (LILRA2) is primarily expressed on the surface of cells of the innate immunity including monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, basophils and eosinophils but not on lymphocytes and NK cells. LILRA2 cross-linking on monocytes induces...
Fluorescent bacteria and yeast particles have been employed in a variety of published studies using fluorescence microscopy, quantitative spectrofluorometry, and flow cytometry (Figure 4). These include the detection of yeast phagocytosis ...
How do macrophages ingest bacteria and or viruses? How was the swine flu pandemic handled? How does influenza evade the innate immune system? How do vaccines help the adaptive immune system? How does Japan notify it's people of potential disease outbreaks?
pneumoniae, TNF␣, MCP-1, and RANTES in asthma, it might be hypothesized that poly- morphisms, which influence the level of these molecules, might have an effect on the infection and/or the susceptibility to asthma in patients infected with C pneumonia. To test this hypothesis, we ...
(AD) is an age-associated neurodegenerative disorder with a complex etiology. While emerging AD therapeutics can slow cognitive decline, they may worsen dementia in certain groups of individuals. Therefore, alternative treatments are much needed. Microglia, the brain resident macrophages, have the ...
Cytokines play an essential role in the operation of macrophages by linking the adaptive and the innate immunity. Also, it influences the microenvironment of macrophages. Furthermore, cytokines regulate apoptosis and cell replication.Answer and Explanation: ...
In adipocytes, activation of aromatase is self-induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α which is secreted locally by adipocytes and infiltrating macrophages, and secures conversion of testosterone to estrogen[82,87]. Locally synthesized estrogens may influence cancer cell growth[15]. It ...
'We have tested a hypothesis that the natural product curcuminoids, which has epidemiologic and experimental rationale for use in AD, may improve the innate immune system and increase amyloid-beta (Abeta) clearance from the brain of patients with sporadic Alzheimer''s disease (AD). Macrophages of...
