Methods and Results— We examined the effects of statins on phagocytosis of antibody-coated red blood cells by cultured human monocytes and mouse peritoneal macrophages. Lovastatin, simvastatin, and ...

Last month, over 350 academics, clinicians, and activists signed an open letter titled “Biology is not binary.” Addressed to Bridget Phillipson, the United Kingdom’s Minister for Women and Equalities, ...

Background Critically ill patients with impaired neutrophil phagocytosis have significantly increased risk of nosocomial infection. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) improves ...

We found that shortly after phagocytosis, wild-type (WT) L. monocytogenes escaped from a noncanonical autophagic process that targets damaged vacuoles. During this process, the autophagy marker LC3 ...

Phagocytosis of complement-opsonized targets requires Mac-1 and induces apoptosis via NADPH oxidase-derived ROS-mediated activation of caspase-8 (21). This occurs despite ERK activation following ...
