Trained innate immunity can be induced in human macrophages by microbial ligands, but it is unknown if exposure to endogenous alarmins such as cathelicidins can have similar effects. Previously, we demonstrated sustained protection against infection by the chicken cathelicidin-2 analog DCATH-2. Thus...

Macrophages are key cell types of the innate immune system regulating host defense, inflammation, tissue homeostasis and cancer. Within this functional spectrum diverse and often opposing phenotypes are displayed which are dictated by environmental clues and depend on highly plastic transcriptional ...

Primary human macrophages were cultured 1, 3 or 6 days with different stimuli. Macrophages are key cell types of the innate immune system regulating host defense, inflammation, tissue homeostasis and cancer. Within this functional spectrum diverse and often opposing phenotypes are displayed which ar...

To assess the LXRa dependent regulatory pathways in macrophages and foam cells we treated our two, THP1 derived native and LXR-knockdown cell models either with T0901317 or vehicle control (DMSO).

Occupational and consumer exposure to GRMs will increase but their impact on human health is still largely unknown. We sought to perform a transcriptome comparison of the bioresponses of MDM and THP-1 macrophages exposed to 5 or 20 µg/ml graphene oxide (GO) or graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) for 6 and ...

Bulk RNAseq in control and LACTB KD human THP1 macrophages
SP110b is an interferon (IFN)-induced nuclear protein and may function as a transcriptional co-activator/repressor. IFNγ activates monocytes/macrophages thereby mediating inflammation. However, uncontrolled activation induces monocyte/macrophage cell death, which may cause immunopathology. We have d...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is well adapted to survive in macrophages and usually subverts the bactericidal mechanisms of these professional phagocytes. The adaptation of Mtb to the intracellular life depends on its ability to regulate the expression of its genes. Among the most important bact...

HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, statins, have beneficial vascular effects beyond their cholesterol-lowering action. These pleiotropic effects include an anti-inflammatory effect on macrophages. Since macrophages play a central role in atherogenesis, we further characterized the effects on peripheral b...

OBJECTIVE: The liver X receptor M-NM-1 (LXRM-NM-1) is a ligand-dependent nuclear receptor and the major regulator of reverse cholesterol transport in macrophages. This makes it an interesting target for mechanistic study and treatment of atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: We optimized a promising...
