Circulating blood monocytes supply peripheral tissues with macrophage and dendritic cell
(DC) precursors and, in the setting of infection, also contribute directly to immune defense …

Immune cells were traditionally considered as major pro-inflammatory contributors. Recent
advances in molecular immunology prove that immune cell lineages are composed of …

Infection-induced inflammatory reactions involve a strong increase in dendritic cells (DCs) at
the infection site and draining lymph nodes (dLNs). Whether inflammatory DCs are recruited …

Tissue macrophages comprise a heterogeneous group of cell types differing in location,
surface markers and function. Red pulp macrophages are a distinct splenic subset involved …

The mononuclear phagocyte (MP) system is a body-wide macrophage (MΦ) and dendritic
cell (DC) network, which contributes to tissue homeostasis, inflammation, and immune …

The article discusses the protective and destructive roles of cytokine responses against
periodontal infections. It stresses the activities and functions of the protein molecule …

Immediate precursors of the many subtypes of dendritic cells (DCs) remain obscure. Here
we purified a splenic precursor population that produced all splenic CD8+ and CD8 …

Background Glioblastoma (GBM) may initially respond to treatment with ionizing radiation
(IR), but the prognosis remains extremely poor because the tumors invariably recur. Using …

Both classical DCs (cDCs) and monocyte-derived DCs (Mo-DCs) are capable of cross-
priming CD8+ T cells in response to cell-associated antigens. We found that Ly-6C hi …

Monocytes can have important effects on the polarization and expansion of lymphocytes and
may contribute to sha** primary and memory T‐cell responses in humans and mice …
