  2. Macrophage polarization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage_polarization

    A continuum of M1-M2 polarization may arise even in the absence of polarizing cytokines and differences in substrate stiffness. [4] M1 macrophages were described as the pro-inflammatory type, important in direct host-defense against pathogens, such as phagocytosis and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and microbicidal molecules. M2 ...

  3. Macrophage-activating factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage-activating_factor

    Macrophages have been classified as M1 or M2 depending on the adaptive immune response that elicited the phenotype: Th1 or Th2 respectively. [2] [4] [5] The phrase 'alternatively activated macrophage' is used to refer to M2 macrophages. [2] Regulatory macrophages do not fit into the M1/M2 classification system, and they display different ...

  4. Tumor-associated macrophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor-associated_macrophage

    Clinically, in 128 patients with breast cancer it was found that patients with more M2 tumor-associated macrophages had higher-grade tumors, greater microvessel density, and worse overall survival. Patients with more M1 tumor-associated macrophages displayed the opposite effect. [23] [24]

  5. Macrophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophage

    Unlike M1 macrophages, M2 macrophages secrete an anti-inflammatory response via the addition of Interleukin-4 or Interleukin-13. They also play a role in wound healing and are needed for revascularization and reepithelialization. M2 macrophages are divided into four major types based on their roles: M2a, M2b, M2c, and M2d.

  8. U937 (cell line) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U937_(cell_line)

    U-937-derived macrophages preferentially respond to M2-inducing stimuli, subsequently leading them to acquire the phenotype of alternatively activated macrophages. Whereas, in the case of THP-1 cells, the polarization is reversed in favor of classical M1 macrophages. Both cell lines can be artificially polarized in either direction though.

  9. Dermal macrophage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermal_macrophage

    Dermal macrophages are usually present in the dermis and around hair follicles. Dermal macrophages are macrophages in the skin that facilitate skin homeostasis by mediating wound repair, hair growth, and salt balance. [ 1] Their functional role in these processes is the mediator of inflammation. They can acquire an M1 or M2 phenotype to promote ...
