During tumour progression, monocytes in blood, as well as macrophages in the tumour bed, are exposed to EVs released by nearby cells [11, 12] to body fluids [13, 14]. EVs are defined as membrane fragments of various shapes released by cells during their lifespan. Using the size and ...
In AIDS patients infected with MAI, aggregated foamy macrophages containing innumerable acid-fast bacteria can be found in many tissues of the body, and can resemble the lipid-filled macrophages seen in Whipple’s disease17 or Gaucher’s disease18 in hematoxylin-eosin stained smears. The disease ...
Biopterin, an obligate cofactor of iNOS enzymatic activity, is undetectable in freshly isolated or cultured human monocytes and peritoneal macrophages. However, replenishment of intracellular levels of tetrahydrobiopterin by culture with the cell-permeable, nontoxic precursor sepiapterin does not enhance the...
Furthermore, type-I IFN release is typically accompanied by inflammatory chemokines which also have have many essential and non-redundant roles in the anti-viral defence. Of particular importance is the C-X-C motif chemokine 10 (CXCL10), which has been shown to induce chemotaxis of macrophages...
Many cells, especially monocytes, macrophages, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells are susceptible to HCMV infection[26]; they play an important role in the development of atherosclerotic vascular diseases. It has been found that HCMV persists in the precursors of bone marrow mononuclear ...

Junqueira et al. found that 6% of blood monocytes in COVID-19 patients are infected with SARS-CoV-2 by Fcγ receptor (CD16/CD64)-mediated uptake14. However, this finding does not rule out the possible role of ACE2 surface expression in the infection of monocytes or macrophages, which is...

Treatment of human long-term bone marrow cultures (LTBMCs) with CCL18 resulted in significant stimulation of hematopoiesis, as measured by the total number of hematopoietic cells and their committed progenitors produced in culture. Monocytes/macrophages, whose survival was almost doubled in the ...
