Application

Carboxylate-modified polystyrene latex beads have been used to collect morphofunctional data about the immune systems of Carabus lefebvrei, a helicophagous Italian endemic ground beetle often used as an indicator of the habitat quality of the Apennines mountain forests. Carboxylate-modified polystyrene latex beads have also been used to inform comparative studies on immunity defense mechanisms of adults and larvae of the coleopteran Cetonischema aeruginosa and to investigate the phagocytic activity of cultured rat thyroid cells.

MDSCs are a group of cells with potent immune-suppressive activity. These cells accumulate in many pathologic conditions and play a major role in the regulation of immune responses. The nature of MDSC remains highly debatable. In cancer, most MDSCs are

Microglia, implicating in such neuro-pathologies as brain inflammation, neurodegeneration, glioma, and neurogenesis, play an important role in central nervous system. Advanced research on microglia is crucial in exploring the neuro-pathology and neuro-physiology of these diseases, so how to culture large

Tumor progression is associated with the release of signaling substances from the primary tumor into the bloodstream. Tumor-derived cytokines are known to promote the mobilization and the recruitment of cells from the bone marrow, including endothelial progenitor cells (EPC). Here

Differentiated macrophages are the resident tissue phagocytes and sentinel cells of the innate immune response. The phenotype of mature tissue macrophages represents the composite of environmental and differentiation-dependent imprinting. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD(3)) are stimuli commonly used to

Protein kinase G (PknG) is a eukaryotic-like serine/threonine kinase that is expressed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and promotes survival of mycobacteria in host macrophages by suppressing phagosome-lysosome fusion. Thus, compounds showing inhibitory activity against PknG are promising anti-mycobacterial agents. We therefore
