β-Glucan Subverts the Function of Myeloid Cells in Neonates by Yingying Chen, Hui Li, Lin Zhu, Quan Yang, Jie Zhou

“…Here, we found that β-glucan did not affect the frequencies and numbers of myeloid cells in the spleen and bone marrow from neonates. Functional assay revealed that β-glucan from neonates compromised the immunosuppressive function of immature myeloid cells, which were myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). …”

Macrophages: Subtypes, Distribution, Polarization, Immunomodulatory Functions, and Therapeutics by Mengyuan Peng, Niannian Li, Hongbo Wang, Yaxu Li, Hui Liu, Yanhua Luo, Bao Lang, Weihang Zhang, Shilong Li, Liujun Tian, Bin Liu

“…ABSTRACT Macrophages are heterogeneous immune cells with diverse subtypes and tissue‐specific distributions, displaying dynamic polarization states that critically govern their immunomodulatory functions and responses to environmental cues. As key regulators of innate and adaptive immunity, they originate from either embryonic progenitors or bone marrow‐derived monocytes and exhibit remarkable plasticity in response to microenvironmental cues. …”

Cybernation of the feeling and intuition functions for the intelligent control system by G. G. Vorobjev, L. G. Dmitrenko

“…As no “revealing of possibilities” specifically pursues the achievement of particular goals (settling of the problem situations in the intelligent system), then by the intuition action the system adapts to possible development of events, external for the system, or to adequate changes of its own condition.By the joint action of the feeling and intuition the intelligent system has an opportunity to extend functioning in problem situations, i.e. at uncertainty – impossibility of use of rational thinking, as well as at “heavy” destructions of structure of the knowledge base of the system, having similar consequences.…”
