Here, macrophages incorporate iron, which is then released from haemoglobin and passed to transferrin.
Thus, there is a parallel relationship between the density of microglia/brain macrophages increase and demyelination progression.
We believe that this is unlikely because there is no evidence that males or macrophages are preferentially attracted to females.
Neutrophils, eosinophils and macrophages have all been observed in direct contact with the schistosomula.
These findings, besides indicating macrophage activation in experimental trypanosomiasis, may also help to explain the development of the coagulation abnormalities which accompany these infections.
Identification of interferon gamma, the lymphokine that activates human macrophage oxidative metabolism and anti-viral activity.
The in vivo production of peroxynitrite has been shown in some inflammatory cells, including macrophages.
In the invasive cells, immunoreactivity against reportedly macrophage-specific antibodies was clearly identified.
