macrophage

Macrophages are the body's first line of defense against invading bacteria.

One reason is that macrophages are hard to study.

You ask me, we're just not making enough macrophages.

For example, wounds will not heal without macrophages, she noted.

What are macrophages and why is the finding significant?

All the evidence points to the lymphocytes and macrophages being responsible.

These are exactly the types of organisms normally killed by macrophages.

The first one puts a pore into the surface of the macrophage.

The "hand" and its contents are then displayed on the surface of the macrophage.

Macrophages continued to arrive, and their activity caused more destruction.

As a result, it cannot bind complement or be picked up by macrophages.

It also was unclear why the macrophages became so engorged.

Some pathogens subvert this process and instead live inside the macrophage.

Macrophages have been shown to infiltrate a number of tumors.

However, macrophages are in "defense mode" only if there is some recognized enemy.

Macrophages are a type of immune cell (white blood cells).

Currently, it is a major opinion that there are several activated forms of macrophages.

Red blood cells are also removed from the damaged tissue by macrophages.

Finally it pumps in a protein that signals the macrophage to kill itself.

Macrophages and other cells of the immune system rush in to clear away the trash, he said.

It primarily infects macrophages, a type of white blood cell.

At least 20 infected macrophages were examined at each time point.

This contrasts with macrophages, which are rather stationary in the nodes.

And he already knew that the macrophages needed one crucial amino acid to do the job.

Macrophages promote muscle regeneration between the second and fourth day.
