Dust cells, or alveolar macrophages, are a phagocytic type of cell located near the pneumocytes. They are positioned at a major boundary between the body and the outside world — an area where the host is particularly vulnerable to invading pathogens, toxins, and foreign substances — and host...
Apoptosis is a physiological process of cell death and plays an important role in the generation and maintenance of tissue homeostasis. The lungs are an important route of exposure to environmental antigens and pathogens. Alveolar macrophages are the first cells to encounter external particles and pat...
Alveolar macrophages are the most abundant innate immune cells in the distal lung parenchyma, located on the luminal surface of the alveolar space. They are the first to encounter incoming pathogens and pollutants and to help orchestrate the initiation and resolution of the immune response in the ...
What is the function of alveolar macrophages? What are the functions of blood? What is the function of stems in vascular plants? Describe the structure of the alveolus within the respiratory system and explain how this relates to its function. ...
What is the function of alveolar macrophages? How do antibodies facilitate and enhance the phagocytosis of invading bacteria? What is the role of extracellular enzymes in bacterial metabolism? How are both B cells and T cells activated in the immune system?
aHamilton et al. found that longer TiO2 nanobelts induced higher toxicity to both alveolar macrophages and mice than their shorter, spherical counterparts. 哈密尔顿等。 发现更长的TiO2 nanobelts比他们更短,球状相对物导致更高的毒力对两只齿龈音巨噬细胞和老鼠。[translate] ...
In the case of the lungs, these macrophages are calledalveolar macrophages(AMs). They live in the lung's alveoli, the tiny air sacs where oxygen passes into the bloodstream—but,as Rothchild has shown in a previous paper, AMs don't mount a robust immune response when they're initially inf...

Incubation of alveolar macrophages with BHT can significantly reduce TNF-α levels, which may explain the mechanism by which this antioxidant relieves inflammation. Pre-incubation of aspirin-treated platelets with BHT inhibits secretion, aggregation, and protein phosphorylation caused by protein kinase C ...
The regulatory T-cells are the most important candidates in that respect (see Fig. 1).2e4 After the entrance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to the patient's lung, the person will be exposed to the polluted aerosols by alveolar macrophages, dendritic cells, and surrounding neutrophils and hence, ...
