These cells deal with microbes and repair tissue damage. Two main sub-types of immune cells are T cells and macrophages. T cells are designed to recognise the molecular signatures of particular ...

They made a striking observation. “We were expecting to see maybe neutrophils or T cells, but the amount of macrophages we saw in the samples was huge,” Marichal said. “They are not normally present ...

The main focus of the laboratory is to understand how cells perform macropinocytosis – the bulk capture of extracellular fluid. This plays important and distinct roles in diverse cell types such as ...

Expert Rev Vaccines. 2012;11(1):55-67. A summary of the events taking place after intradermal injection of naked mRNA is given inFigure 1. Although formulation of mRNA vaccines and sophisticated ...

Monocytes and macrophages are myeloid cells that have important innate immune functions. Macrophages reside in tissues and respond to infection by producing inflammatory mediators and engulfing ...

The Overholtzer lab studies mechanisms of nutrient sensing and cellular responses to nutrient starvation, including the nutrient recycling pathway autophagy, scavenging pathways such as ...

New research from the Craig Thompson Lab offers a closer look at the transcriptional activators, Yap/Taz, and the role they play in cell growth and macropinocytosis. King, B., Araki, J., Palm, W., & ...
