Monocytes, a special type of white blood cell, secrete cytokines as inflammatory messengers that are crucial for an appropriate immune response. Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB ...

We further show the numbers of non-classical monocytes in blood are elevated and are significantly correlated with histological signs of joint destruction. Sorted non-classical monocytes display an ...

Illustration shows the new function of blood monocytes, namely their ability to proliferate in tissues before differentiating into macrophages, immune cells that play important roles in ...

Starting from the hypothesis that immune cells promptly respond to harmful stimuli, we used peripheral blood monocytes in order to characterise a distinct gene expression profile and to evaluate its ...

Monocytopenia describes a low number of monocytes, a type of white blood cell. Monocytes are made in the bone marrow and account for 2% to 6% of white blood cells at any given time. They work ...

We investigated dominant alterations of RA monocytes in bone marrow (BM), blood and inflamed joints. Conclusion Patterns of less mature and less differentiated RA-BM and RA-PB monocytes suggest ...

Compared with carotid color ultrasonography, monocyte to high‐density lipoprotein ratio, a biomarker calculated by blood index, is more convenient and saves time and money. The discovery and ...

3 Previous studies, in a model of acute ligation of the femoral artery in mice and rabbits, showed stimulation of arteriogenesis by increased concentrations of blood monocytes and inhibition of ...

We further validated that the monocyte-derived CXCL12a was essential for guiding this process via the CXCL12a/CXCR4a axis. Our research provided new insights into the blood vessel formation during the ...

HSF1 transiently accumulates in the nucleus of human monocytes undergoing macrophage differentiation, including M-CSF-treated peripheral blood monocytes and phorbol ester-treated THP1 cells.
