Saccharomyces cerevisiae β-glucan improves the response of trained macrophages to severe P. aeruginosa infections.

Unlabelled: OBJECTIVE P. AERUGINOSA: (PA), the major pathogen of lung cystic fibrosis (CF), polarizes macrophages into hyperinflammatory tissue damaging phenotype. The main aim of this study was to verify whether training of macrophages with β-glucan might improve their response to P.

Immunomodulation by tramadol combined with acetaminophen or dexketoprofen: In vivo animal study.

Among other functions, macrophages remove foreign particles, including medications, from the circulation, making them an important target for immunomodulatory molecules. Currently, growing evidence suggests that analgesics affect the activity of immune cells not directly related to pain, and thus may induce unwanted immunosuppression in patients at risk. However, the immunomodulatory effects resulting from macrophage targeting by these drugs are understudied.

Biofilm-forming strains of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus isolated from cystic fibrosis patients differently affect inflammatory phenotype of macrophages.

Objective: Lung cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by chronic infections and hyperinflammatory response of neutrophils and macrophages. P. aeruginosa (PA) and S.
