Macrophages are key drivers of inflammatory and fibrotic diseases and their activation is shaped by interactions in their tissue microenvironment. However, dissecting the processes that drive immunopathology has proved challenging as traditional 2D culture methods fail to capture the complex mole...
To investigate the metabolites and pathways modulated by BCG in RANKL-differentiated macrophages, thereby elucidating the metabolic mechanisms underlying BCG-induced macrophage activation, BMMs were stimulated with 50 ng/mL RANKL for 5 days to generate osteoclast-like cells. Subsequently, one gro...
Macrophages play a critical role in the inflammatory response and tumor development. Macrophages are primarily divided into pro-inflammatory M1-like and anti-inflammatory M2-like macrophages based on their activation status and functions. In vitro macrophage models could be derived from ...
