Various forms of tissue damage and danger signals following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation [PDF]
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the most potent curative therapy for many malignant and non-malignant disorders. Unfortunately, a major complication of HSCT is graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), which is mediated by tissue damage ...

Promoting immune defensive responses of epithelial cells in airway disease [PDF]
The airway epithelium serves as both a physical barrier and as an active contributor in maintaining immune defense. Upon exposure to external insults such as injury and infection, the epithelium releases alarmins including interleukin-25 (IL-25), IL-33 ...

Enhanced Alarmin Secretion Exacerbates Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) Formation in Active Psoriasis: Implication of IL-33 and TSLP in Driving NET Formation, Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in Psoriasis [PDF]
Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease with chronic manifestation in which the role of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and alarmins are increasingly recognized as contributors to systemic and cutaneous inflammation.

Role of Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMPs/Alarmins) in Severe Ocular Allergic Diseases
Severe ocular allergic diseases, such as atopic keratoconjunctivitis and vernal keratoconjunctivitis, cause severe allergic inflammation in the conjunctiva and corneal epithelial damage, resulting in visual disturbances. The involvement of damage (danger)

Alarmins/stressorins and immune dysregulation in intractable skin disorders
Unlike other barrier epithelia of internal organs, the stratified squamous epithelium of the skin is always exposed to the external environment. However, the robust barrier structure and function of the skin are highly resistant against external insults ...
