Reprint of: Monocyte subsets in man and other species

Ziegler-Heitbrock, Loems·2014·Cellular Immunology

Abstract

Monocytes are white blood cells that belong to the mononuclear phagocyte system. They derive from precursors in bone marrow, from there they go into blood, where they have a half-life of 1-2 days, and then they migrate into the various tissues. Monocyte subsets were discovered by means of flow cytometry in human blood some 20 years ago and their phenotype and function has been characterized in detail in health and disease. The subset classification as classical, intermediate and non-classical monocytes appears to apply to other species as well, as reviewed in here by comparing data on human monocytes with the respective cells in the mouse, the rat, the pig, the cow and the horse. The data show that the subsets are homologous between the species but there are important differences in subset-specific gene expression such that findings in a given species cannot be directly translated to man.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Immune cell subsets are not always perfectly conserved across mouse and human, such as monocyte subsets.

    “Furthermore, immune cell subsets are not always perfectly conserved across the two species, such as in the case of monocyte subsets196.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
