One of their key attributes is their mobility to sites of inflammation, infection, and tumors. This trait garnered the attention of researchers who developed therapies to leverage macrophages’ ...

Now, researchers at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering have discovered a new form of immune ...

A recent study published in Engineering has shed new light on the mechanisms underlying the metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The research identified enolase 2 (ENO2), a ...

Inflammatory processes are the body’s defence against local damage and disease. Inflammation involves the influx into organs of immune cells (white blood cells) from the blood. These cells deal with ...

They found that macrophages expressing Gpnmb genes, which have historically been described as "pro-fibrotic" macrophages, were found in both types of lung injury, indicating that they may not be ...

Researchers from Moffitt Cancer Center have found a new way to boost cancer immunotherapy by targeting a protein called macrophage receptor with collagenous structure, or MARCO. Their study, published ...

A new study published in Engineering has identified enolase 2 (ENO2) as a key factor in the lymphatic metastasis of head and ...
