Platelet microparticles (PMP) were isolated from outdated platelets by a combination of differential centrifugation and gel filtration, and the concentration of PMP was expressed in the equivalent of GPIIb/IIIa complex measured by captured ELISA. PMP bound to isolated neutrophils and macrophages in a dose-dependent manner, but they did not bind to lymphocytes. Incubation of PMP with neutrophils did not activate these cells as measured by up-regulation of Mac-1, release of human granulocyte elastase, and calcium mobilization. Incubation of PMP with macrophages did not enhance IL-8 production and the oxygen burst but slightly and significantly increased production of MCP-1. After 10 min incubation of PMP with macrophages, an increase of GPIIb/IIIa antigen was observed suggesting that PMP may be endocytosed by macrophages. In conclusion, PMP bind to leukocytes, but, in contrast to activated platelets, do not play a significant role in leukocyte activation.

D007962 Leukocytes White blood cells. These include granular leukocytes (BASOPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and NEUTROPHILS) as well as non-granular leukocytes (LYMPHOCYTES and MONOCYTES). Blood Cells, White,Blood Corpuscles, White,White Blood Cells,White Blood Corpuscles,Blood Cell, White,Blood Corpuscle, White,Corpuscle, White Blood,Corpuscles, White Blood,Leukocyte,White Blood Cell,White Blood Corpuscle
D008262 Macrophage Activation The process of altering the morphology and functional activity of macrophages so that they become avidly phagocytic. It is initiated by lymphokines, such as the macrophage activation factor (MAF) and the macrophage migration-inhibitory factor (MMIF), immune complexes, C3b, and various peptides, polysaccharides, and immunologic adjuvants. Activation, Macrophage,Activations, Macrophage,Macrophage Activations
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.

D002498 Centrifugation Process of using a rotating machine to generate centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities, remove moisture, or simulate gravitational effects. It employs a large motor-driven apparatus with a long arm, at the end of which human and animal subjects, biological specimens, or equipment can be revolved and rotated at various speeds to study gravitational effects.
