Alternative macrophage activation and the regulation of metabolism

Macrophages are white blood cells that have important roles in phagocytosis and immune responses. A series of recent papers reveals that nuclear receptors influence the precise pathway of macrophage phenotype polarization and that these effects protect against insulin resistance and metabolic syndro...
