Depressed macrophage functions at temperatures below 37 degrees C. 1983

R Ganguly, and D Hoover, and V Traynelis, and M J Moore, and V A Lazzell

Immunobiological properties of guinea pig and human peritoneal macrophages were studied at temperatures ranging from 25 degrees C to 37 degrees C. Glass adherence, random migration, response to MIF and killing of Salmonella typhimurium and Saccharomyces cerevesiae by guinea pig macrophages were decreased with temperatures below 37 degrees C. Killing of Sacch. cerevesiae by human macrophages was also reduced at temperatures less than 37 degrees C. Acid phosphatase and beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG) activity assayed at 37 degrees C did not change when the cells were preincubated for 1 and 5 hours at various temperatures. Impaired macrophage function with subnormal temperatures may contribute to enhanced susceptibility to infection of patients with chronic diseases such as renal failure and cirrhosis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008263 Macrophage Migration-Inhibitory Factors Proteins released by sensitized LYMPHOCYTES and possibly other cells that inhibit the migration of MACROPHAGES away from the release site. The structure and chemical properties may vary with the species and type of releasing cell. Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor,Migration Inhibition Factors, Macrophage,Macrophage Migration Inhibition Factors,Migration Inhibition Factor, Macrophage,Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factors,Migration-Inhibitory Factors, Macrophage
D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.
