stimulating factor (M-CSF; also known as CSF1), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G …

Under conditions of oxygen sufficiency, tumor cells supply themselves with energy through
glycolysis, which is one of the causes of their rapid proliferation, metastasis and acquisition …

Macrophages play a key role in the development of sepsis-induced acute respiratory
distress syndrome (ARDS). Recent evidence has proved that glycolysis plays an important …

Aims 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2, 6-biphosphatase (PFKFB) 3-mediated glycolysis
is pivotal in driving macrophage-and endothelial cell activation and thereby inflammation …

Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Myocardial ischemia
is a major contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In the case of acute …

Macrophages are essential components of the innate immune system that play both
homeostatic roles in healthy organs, and host defence functions against pathogens after …

Aims Acute lung injury (ALI) is triggered by an acute inflammatory response.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is recognized as an important participant in the pathogenesis of …

Dexmedetomidine, a highly selective α2-adrenoceptor agonist, has been reported to exert
an anti-inflammatory effect in several animal models, but the mechanism remains unclear …

The interaction of two types of fragmented graphene particles (30–160 nm) with human
macrophages is studied. Since macrophages have significant phagocytic activity, the …

Ouabain, a steroid binding to the Na+/K+-ATPase, has several pharmacological effects. In
addition to the recognized effects of blood pressure, there is more convincing evidence …
