Journal ArticleDOI

Macrophage Polarization: Different Gene Signatures in M1(LPS+) vs. Classically and M2(LPS-) vs. Alternatively Activated Macrophages.

TL;DR: This fundamental discrepancy explains why most surface markers identified on in vitro generated macrophages do not translate to the in vivo situation and is justified by comparing the gene lists positively or negatively correlated with the ratio of IL-12 and arginase 1 in transcriptomes of LPS-treated peritoneal macrophades.
Journal ArticleDOI

SLC6 transporters: structure, function, regulation, disease association and therapeutics.

TL;DR: The SLC6 family of secondary active transporters are integral membrane solute carrier proteins characterized by the Na(+)-dependent translocation of small amino acid or amino acid-like substrates that are associated with a number of human diseases and disorders making this family a critical target for therapeutic development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural variation of macrophage activation as disease-relevant phenotype predictive of inflammation and cancer survival.

TL;DR: This study highlights natural activation diversity as a disease-relevant dimension in macrophage biology, and suggests the HMDP as a viable tool to increase translatability of mouse data to clinical settings.
Journal ArticleDOI

How Mouse Macrophages Sense What Is Going On

TL;DR: Almost 200 key macrophage receptors that help the macrophages sense what is going on are reviewed, including pathogen-derived molecules, the state of the surrounding tissue cells, apoptotic and necrotic cell death, antibodies and immune complexes, altered self molecules, extracellular matrix components, and cytokines, including chemokines.
