• The spleen in local and systemic regulation of immunity (2013, background): “Mouse and human spleens are mostly similar anatomically, although the human MZ is more organized, with clearly identifiable outer and inner layers surrounded by a large perifollicular zone (Mebius and Kraal, 2005).”
• Much More than M1 and M2 Macrophages, There are also CD169+ and TCR+ Macrophages (2015, methodology): “We thank the fellowship for LCG (207760), provided by the Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (CONACyT), Mexico, and the FNS (31-46833) and the Ligue Pulmonaire Genevoise.”
• Origins of tumor-associated macrophages and neutrophils (2012, background): “Mouse and human spleens are physiologically very similar (30), and the spleen of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders is capable of producing leukocytes (31–33).”
• Chapter 1. General introduction (2015, neutral): “When su#cient LTi cells have clustered, signaling via TRANCE-R by TRANCE, which are both expressed on LTi cell, results in the expression of lymphotoxinαβ (LTαβ) by LTi cells (2).”
• Normal Structure, Function, and Histology of the Spleen (2006, background): “These give rise to the arterial capillaries, which terminate in the reticular meshwork of the red pulp in rodents (open circulation; Mebius and Kraal, 2005).”
• The noncanonical NF‐κB pathway (2012, background): “The NF-jB pathways are also important for the architecture organization of the secondary lymphoid organs, which has been extensively characterized for the white pulp of the spleen (103, 113).”
• Macrophages: development and tissue specialization. (2015, background): “As for the distinct roles of the two cell populations, MZMs are positioned within the outer layer of the marginal zone and express a unique set of pattern recognition receptors, such as CD204, macrophage receptor with collagenous structure (MARCO), and the C-type lectin CD209b (SIGN-R1), which contr”
• The Phagocytic Function of Macrophage-Enforcing Innate Immunity and Tissue Homeostasis (2017, background): “Tissue macrophages in the spleen can be distinguished as (1) red pulp macrophages, (2) marginal zone metallophilic macrophages distributed inside the marginal zone, (3) marginal zone macrophages distributed outside the marginal zone, and (4) tingible body macrophages distributed in the lymph follicl”
• The journey of a drug-carrier in the body: an anatomo-physiological perspective. (2012, background): “The spleen architecture varies between species [170,171].”
