Alarmins, inflammasomes and immunity

open access: yesBiomedical Journal, 2012
The elaboration of an effective immune response against pathogenic microbes such as viruses, intracellular bacteria or protozoan parasites relies on the recognition of microbial products called pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs).

A Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Study to Define Alarmins and A-SAA Variants as Companion Markers in Early Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Nowadays, in the study of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), more and more interest is directed towards an earlier effective therapeutic intervention and the determination of companion markers for predicting response to therapy with the goal to prevent ...

Heat shock proteins in tendinopathy: novel molecular regulators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tendon disorders-tendinopathies-are the primary reason for musculoskeletal consultation in primary care and account for up to 30% of rheumatological consultations.

Hydrogen peroxide is a neuronal alarmin that triggers specific RNAs, local translation of Annexin A2, and cytoskeletal remodeling in Schwann cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Schwann cells are key players in neuro-regeneration: They sense "alarm" signals released by degenerating nerve terminals and differentiate toward a proregenerative phenotype, with phagocytosis of nerve debris and nerve guidance.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Allergic Rhinitis Amplifies Asthma Risk in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Large‐Scale Retrospective Cohort Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and allergic rhinitis (AR) are two highly prevalent airway diseases in the United States. While the coexistence of CRS and asthma is well recognized, less is known about the development of new‐onset asthma in CRS, particularly in the context of comorbid AR. This study assessed the impact of CRS and AR on

Stroke and the immune system: A review of the new strategies [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Medica, 2020
The immunology of stroke can be approached in several ways. By viewing stroke from an immunological standpoint, we are trying to achieve new insights in its pathogenesis and reach new therapeutic options.

Alarmins link neutrophils and dendritic cells [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Immunology, 2009
Neutrophils are the first major population of leukocyte to infiltrate infected or injured tissues and are crucial for initiating host innate defense and adaptive immunity. Although the contribution of neutrophils to innate immune defense is mediated predominantly by phagocytosis and killing of microorganisms, neutrophils also participate in the ...
