Redox-control of the alarmin, Interleukin-1α

Redox Biology, 2013
The pro-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin-1α (IL-1α) has recently emerged as a susceptibility marker for a wide array of inflammatory diseases associated with oxidative stress including Alzheimer's, arthritis, atherosclerosis, diabetes and cancer. In the present study, we establish that expression and nuclear localization of IL-1α are redox-dependent ...

Sequence of Immunological Events During IgE‐Mediated Allergic Reactions to Food

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food allergies (FA) represent a significant global health burden. Upon allergen re‐exposure, allergic patients exhibit a sequence of symptoms that vary in terms of affected organ systems, severity, time of onset and allergen reactivity thresholds.

Red alert: labile heme is an alarmin [PDF]

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2016
Alarmins are a heterogeneous group of endogenous molecules that signal cellular damage when sensed extracellularly. Heme is an endogenous molecule that acts as a prosthetic group of hemoproteins, such as hemoglobin and myoglobin. When released from damaged red blood cells or muscle cells, oxidized hemoglobin and myoglobin release their prosthetic heme ...

Circulating levels of high mobility group box-1 and nucleophosmin/B23 proteins and clinical significance in debut non-small cell lung cancer patients

Scientific Reports
Alarmins are endogenous molecules that alert the immune system to circumvent the invading antigens in the host. Here, we investigated the serum levels of the high mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) and nucleophosmin alarmins in a cohort of 162 newly diagnosed

Targeting Immunologic Pathways in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Translating Emerging Evidence Into Clinical Practice

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening systemic, inflammatory disease with multi‐organ manifestations, variable presentation and complex pathology. Multiple interconnected immunological pathways are implicated in EGPA pathology, including a type‐2 immune response driving predominantly ...

Successful Application of the Mast Cell Activation Test in Immediate Hypersensitivity to Amoxicillin

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study included 28 amoxicillin‐allergic patients and 11 healthy exposed controls. Mast cells were differentiated from CD34+ progenitors over 8 weeks using cytokine cocktails. The mast cell activation test involved sensitization with patient or control sera and stimulation with free amoxicillin or G4/G5‐AXO dendrimers with successfully activated ...

The Role of Alarmins in the Pathogenesis of Asthma

Biomolecules
Asthma is defined as a chronic respiratory disease, the processes of which are mainly related to the hyperreactivity of the immune system. Airway hyperresponsiveness and remodeling are other hallmarks of asthma that are strongly involved in the progression of the disease.

Polypropylene Nanoplastic Exposure to Respiratory Epithelial Barrier‐On‐Chip and Interfacial Interactions With Human Serum Albumin

Allergy, EarlyView.
Exposure to 305 nm PP NPs significantly disrupts the airway barrier‐on‐chip, reducing TEER, suppressing ZO‐1/ACE2 expression, and triggering ROS‐mediated apoptosis. In biological media, PP NPs exhibit a biphasic adsorption pattern, leading to the formation of a protein corona that increases their size to 364 nm.

Beyond inflammation: alarmins as critical drivers of pulmonary fibrosis

ERJ Open Research
Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic respiratory disorder characterised by an overproduction and aberrant deposition of fibrotic tissue in the lungs. This narrative review focuses on the pivotal role played by epithelial alarmins, primarily thymic stromal ...
