Here, macrophages incorporate iron, which is then released from haemoglobin and passed to transferrin.From theCambridge English Corpus
Thus, there is a parallel relationship between the density of microglia/brain macrophages increase and demyelination progression.From theCambridge English Corpus
We believe that this is unlikely because there is no evidence that males or macrophages are preferentially attracted to females.From theCambridge English Corpus
Neutrophils, eosinophils and macrophages have all been observed in direct contact with the schistosomula.From theCambridge English Corpus
These findings, besides indicatingmacrophageactivation in experimental trypanosomiasis, may also help to explain the development of the coagulation abnormalities which accompany these infections.From theCambridge English Corpus
Identification of interferon gamma, the lymphokine that activates humanmacrophageoxidative metabolism and anti-viral activity.From theCambridge English Corpus
The in vivo production of peroxynitrite has been shown in some inflammatory cells, including macrophages.From theCambridge English Corpus
In the invasive cells, immunoreactivity against reportedlymacrophage-specific antibodies was clearly identified.From theCambridge English Corpus
These results suggest the possibility that the invasive cells are immunohistochemically macrophages.From theCambridge English Corpus
Staining was also observed in the lower layer, mainly in irregularly shaped leucocyte-like cells, identified as macrophages, and small regularly shaped lymphocytes.From theCambridge English Corpus
However, in spleen as well as in kidney of all chub the ratio of spores to macrophages did not exceed 1 : 1.From theCambridge English Corpus
We postulated that the macrophages that invade the pregnant uterus at term may arise from the fetus.From theCambridge English Corpus
In macrophages, cytokine-induced transcription factor binding might enhance virus replication under unconstrained pro-inflammatory conditions.From theCambridge English Corpus
The levels of inhibition were reduced by 11-14 days and macrophages harvested 20-30 days after infection had little or no inhibitory effect.From theCambridge English Corpus
Moreover, the activity of macrophages is likely to be severely restricted in rapidly cooling and clotting blood.From theCambridge English Corpus
