Inflammatory monocyte effector mechanisms

Abstract: Monocytes are blood-derived mononuclear phagocytic cells that traffic throughout the body and can provide rapid innate immune effector responses in response to microbial pathogen infections. Amongst blood monocytes, the most abundant subset in mice is represented by inflammatory Ly6C+ CCR2+ monocytes and is the functional equivalent of the CD14+ monocytes in humans. Herein we focus on published evidence describing the exquisite functional plasticity of these cells, and we extend this overview to their multiple… Show more

“…Our study examined both myeloid and lymphoid cell compartments to provide a global analysis of blood immune leukocytes during severe human malaria. Data reveal both expansion and activation of inflammatory monocytes (CD14 + ), which express an exquisite machinery to sense pathogen-derived molecules, produce inflammatory cytokines and contribute to systemic inflammation [63]. We also found diminished pDC blood frequencies in severe malaria patients as reported before [51], yet our data further reveal that pDCs were activated.…”

“…In contrast to helminth infection, which results in tissue-resident macrophage proliferation in response to the Type II cytokine IL-4 37 (Figure 3), microbial infections typically engage Type I responses by promoting inflammatory monocyte recruitment 41,100 (Figure 3). Upon entering tissues, monocytes can remain “immature” or can differentiate into mature cells, including macrophages, to perform various effector functions.…”
