These activated macrophages can then engulf and digest affected cells much more readily.

Activated macrophages are found in tissues with inflammation.

The activated macrophage can then destroy phagocytosed bacteria and produce more cytokines.

Activated macrophages have a lifespan of only a few days though new evidence suggest that it could be extended to weeks rather than days.

Allograft Inflammatory Factor 1 is found in activated macrophages.

Activated macrophages produce and secrete tumor necrosis factors.

It is an inducible enzyme, becoming abundant in activated macrophages and other cells at sites of inflammation.

In addition, activated macrophages secrete many inflammatory mediators.

The exposure also induced a stellate cellular morphology consistent with that of an activated macrophage (Fig.

Activated macrophages release virions into the brain tissue proximate to brain microvessels.

Alternatively, activated macrophages are important to maintaining glucose homeostasis (i.e., blood sugar regulation).

Expression of the FR is selectively upregulated on certain malignant cells and activated macrophages.

The upregulated expression of the FR makes activated macrophages a useful tool in folate-targeted therapy.

Activated macrophages are prominent in the inflammatory infiltrate in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.

It is found on mature B cells, activated macrophages, eosinophils, follicular dendritic cells, and platelets.

IL-1α is produced mainly by activated macrophages, as well as neutrophils, epithelial cells, and endothelial cells.

The T cell activated macrophages engulf erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets, as well as their progenitor cells.

It showed that cytochalasin B enhances tumor cell lysis and stasis due to activated macrophages at a concentration of 10-7 moles.

The anti-tumor effect of Ganoderma lucidum is mediated by cytokines released from activated macrophages and T lymphocytes.

TNF is a cytokine produced mainly by activated macrophages, and is the major extrinsic mediator of apoptosis.

The anti-inflammatory activity results from the polysaccharide's ability to inhibit the production of nitric oxide in activated macrophages, a cell of the immune system.

Other studies have shown that KDM6B expression is up-regulated in activated macrophages and dynamically expressed during differentiation of stem cells.

Activated macrophages and monocytes secrete HMGB1 as a cytokine mediator of Inflammation.

The excess of adipose tissue found in obese patients is found to cause chronic inflammation with an increase in the number of activated macrophages.

Activated macrophages can function as class II antigen-presenting cells, similar to pulpal dendritic and B cells.
