Phagocytosis, the internalization of particles by cells, is involved in development, tissue homeostasis and host defence. Aspects of this process are highly conserved between species and hence studies ...

Scientists offer evidence that the exposure to 6 mT SMF field affects removal of dying cells. They found that monocyte/macrophages differentiation degree is very important in driving cell response in ...

Phagocytic immune cells such as macrophages play an important role in the phagocytosis of dying or diseased cells. Efferocytosis is a process involving the removal of apoptotic or dead cells by ...

Phagocytosis is the molecular version of taking out the trash; certain cells, called macrophages, are tasked with engulfing and breaking down dead or dying cells to keep the molecular environment ...

In a recent article published in the Science Advances Journal, researchers developed a one-step method to engineer multifunctional M1 phenotype macrophages from specialized membrane-fusogenic ...

A Pac-Man-style power pellet that gets normally mild-mannered cells to gobble up their undesirable neighbors has been developed by researchers. The development may point the way to therapies that ...

Phagocytosis is a process in which phagocytes, or scavenger cells, engulf and digest microorganisms and cellular debris. (File) A new study in mice has revealed that the spike protein of the ...

Increasing knowledge of mutations and signaling proteins in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) offer prognostic and therapeutic advantages, according to a review of recent findings. Diffuse large B ...

This release is also available in Chinese on EurekAlert! Chinese. The interest in the biological effects of non-ionizing Electro Magnetic Fields (EMFs) and Static Magnetic Fields (SMFs) on the whole ...
