Monocytes and macrophages are myeloid cells that have important innate immune functions. Macrophages reside in tissues and respond to infection by producing inflammatory mediators and engulfing ...

Over the past ten years, we have investigated the developmental origin and homeostasis of macrophages and the related cell types monocytes and dendritic cells. These cells play a major role in diverse ...

Macrophages eat other cells and are able to pull apart their proteins in order to ... Raveney, B. J. E., and Munder, M. (2009) Monocyte dependent regulation of autoimmune inflammation.

Our expertise includes the isolation and culture of primary human and rodent cells (lymphocytes, monocyte/macrophages, and other immune cells; fibroblast-like synoviocytes; myoblasts), functional ...

Innate immune cells are white blood cells that mediate innate immunity and include basophils, dendritic cells, eosinophils, Langerhans cells, mast cells, monocytes and macrophages, neutrophils and ...
