RING finger E3 ligase PPP1R11 regulates TLR2 signaling and innate immunity

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that recognizes many types of PAMPs that originate from gram-positive bacteria. Here we describe a novel mechanism regulating TLR2 protein expression and subsequent cytokine release through ...

Use of airway pressure-based indices to detect high and low inspiratory effort during pressure support ventilation: a diagnostic accuracy study

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background Assessment of the patient’s respiratory effort is essential during assisted ventilation. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of airway pressure (P aw)-based indices to detect potential injurious inspiratory effort during pressure support (PS ...

The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein subunit S1 induces COVID-19-like acute lung injury in Κ18-hACE2 transgenic mice and barrier dysfunction in human endothelial cells

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Lung cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2021
Acute lung injury (ALI) leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome is the major cause of COVID-19 lethality. Cell entry of SARS-CoV-2 occurs via the interaction between its surface spike protein (SP) and angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2).

Targeting the deubiquitinase STAMBP inhibits NALP7 inflammasome activity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
How NALP7 inflammasome formation is regulated is unclear. Here the authors show that STAMBP prevents lysosomal degradation of NALP7 and present BC-1471 as a potential therapeutic STAMBP inhibitor, showing it can reduce TLR-induced IL-1β production.

Glycolysis and acute lung injury: A review

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2023
Acute lung injury is featured as diffuse pulmonary edema and persistent hypoxemia caused by lung or systemic injury. It is believed that these pathological changes are associated with damage to the alveolar epithelium and vascular endothelium ...

The Human IL-22 Receptor Is Regulated through the Action of the Novel E3 Ligase Subunit FBXW12, Which Functions as an Epithelial Growth Suppressor

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2015
Interleukin- (IL-) 22 signaling is protective in animal models of pneumonia and bacteremia by Klebsiella pneumoniae and mediates tissue recovery from influenza and Staph aureus infection.

E3 Ligase Subunit Fbxo15 and PINK1 Kinase Regulate Cardiolipin Synthase 1 Stability and Mitochondrial Function in Pneumonia

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Summary: Acute lung injury (ALI) is linked to mitochondrial injury, resulting in impaired cellular oxygen utilization; however, it is unknown how these events are linked on the molecular level. Cardiolipin, a mitochondrial-specific lipid, is generated by

Macrophage polarization and its role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesInflammation Research, 2020
Macrophages are highly plastic cells. Under different stimuli, macrophages can be polarized into several different subsets. Two main macrophage subsets have been suggested: classically activated or inflammatory (M1) macrophages and alternatively ...

Obesity and Acute Lung Injury [PDF]

open access: yesClinics in Chest Medicine, 2009
Acute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are common indications for ICU admission and mechanical ventilation. ALI/ARDS also consumes significant health care resources and is a common cause of death in ICU patients.
