Macrophages are effector cells of the innate immune system, engulfing bacteria and secreting pro-inflammatory and antibacterial mediators. They are an important component of the first line defense against pathogens and tumor cells. In addition, macrophages play an important role in eliminating damaged cells through programmed cell death. Like all immune cells, macrophages originate from pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. Macrophages play key functions in many physiological processes beyond homeostasis and innate immunity, including metabolic function, cell debris clearance, tissue repair, and remodeling. In order to fulfill their different functional roles, macrophages can polarize into a series of phenotypes, including classic (pro inflammatory, M1) and alternative (anti-inflammatory, healing promoting, M2) activation states, as well as a wide range of regulatory phenotypes and subtypes. Macrophages exist in all vertebrate tissues and have a dual function in host protection and tissue damage, maintaining a good balance.
MCE designs a unique collection of 276 macrophage related compounds. It is a good tool to be used for research on Inflammation, cancer and other diseases.
Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs), also known as antimicrobial peptides or antibiotic peptides, are a class of polypeptides encoded by specific genes in various biological cells and induced by external stimuli. They exhibit broad-spectrum bioactivity against bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa, and even tumor cells. AMPs serve as crucial effector molecules in the host's innate immune system.Due to their wide antimicrobial spectrum, low toxicity to normal cells of higher animals, high safety profile, low tendency to induce resistance, and additional benefits such as immune enhancement and antioxidant effects, antimicrobial peptides hold significant promise in new drug development.
MCE offers 57 types of antimicrobial peptides, which can be applied in high-throughput screening for research in anti-infection therapies, immunotherapy, anticancer drug development, and agricultural disease control.
