Looking specifically at alveolar macrophage cells under a microscope, the researchers measured the sizes of the cells and the amount of carbon accumulated in the cells. They found that the average ...

Our lead program, molgramostim nebulizer solution, is an inhaled granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in Phase 3 development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (aPAP).
TREM2, a cell surface receptor on monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (Mo-AMs), is highly expressed in fibrotic lungs and promotes macrophage survival and lung fibrosis by delaying apoptosis.
The UAB researchers showed that TREM2 — which stands for triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 2 — is predominantly expressed on monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages in bleomycin-induced ...
