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 ...

PTX3 Predicts Myocardial Damage and Fibrosis in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is a main component of the innate immune system by inducing complement pathway activation, acting as an inflammatory mediator, coordinating the functions of macrophages/dendritic cells and promoting apoptosis/necrosis. Additionally, it

Vitamin D analogs differentially control antimicrobial peptide/"alarmin" expression in psoriasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are strongly expressed in lesional skin in psoriasis and play an important role as proinflammatory "alarmins" in this chronic skin disease.

Novel Organelle‐Based Intracellular Immunity With Mechanistic and Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesBarrier Immunity, EarlyView.
A conceptual framework illustrating how PAMPs/DAMPs initiate barrier, innate, adaptive, and intracellular immune responses, with organelle‐based intracellular immunity serving as a central integrator linking metabolism, inflammatory signaling, and therapeutic interventions to restore immune homeostasis.

Mitochondrial Damage-Associated Molecular Patterns: From Inflammatory Signaling to Human Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Over the recent years, much has been unraveled about the pro-inflammatory properties of various mitochondrial molecules once they are leaving the mitochondrial compartment.

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Brain-released alarmins and stress response synergize in accelerating atherosclerosis progression after stroke.

open access: yes, 2018
Stroke induces a multiphasic systemic immune response, but the consequences of this response on atherosclerosis-a major source of recurrent vascular events-have not been thoroughly investigated.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

The Multitasking Potential of Alarmins and Atypical Chemokines [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2019
When the human genome was sequenced, it came as a surprise that it contains "only" 21,306 protein-coding genes. However, complexity and diversity are multiplied by alternative splicing, non-protein-coding transcripts, or post-translational modifications (PTMs) on proteome level.

Targeting Inflammatory Alarmin S100A9 Modulates Activation of Pro‐Inflammatory Macrophage to Protect Nasal Epithelial Cells From LPS‐Induced Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) exhibits pronounced endotypic heterogeneity, with macrophages serving as key drivers of sustained mucosal inflammation. In this study, we identify S100A9 as a macrophage‐derived alarmin that is markedly elevated in CRSwNP tissues.
