Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) within the tumor microenvironment (TME) exhibit significant metabolic dysregulation, ...

Findings show macrophage populations organize the placement of immune cells in tumors. Some macrophage signals promoted ...

Researchers explored the cellular cross-talk between endothelial cells and macrophages contributing to peripheral vascular ...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with a poor prognosis, and no effective treatment has been established to date. Understanding the mechanisms that prevent the progression of AKI is crucial. In ...

An enzyme that controls the maturation and long-term survival of immune cells called macrophages has been discovered, with implications for research on aging and inflammatory disease. Virtually all ...

ATS 2025, San Francisco – Microplastics are ubiquitous in the environment, and we all routinely inhale these tiny pollutants. Now new research published at the ATS 2025 International Conference has ...

Macrophages are the specialized phagocytic cells that respond to toxic particle depositions to exert inflammatory and clearance responses. These long-lived immune cells engulf foreign substances like ...

A newly identified population of dysfunctional immune cells may play a central role in both aging and chronic disease.

Disrupted function of 'cleaning cells' in the body may help to explain why some people with obesity develop type 2 diabetes, while others do not. A study describes this newly discovered mechanism.
