Vomocytosis: Too Much Booze, Base, or Calcium? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Macrophages are well known for their phagocytic activity and their role in innate immune responses. Macrophages eat non-self particles, via a variety of mechanisms, and typically break down internalized cargo into small macromolecules.

IL‐4/STAT6‐signaling Influences Local Inflammation and Regeneration Processes During Acute Pancreatitis and Promotes Fibrosis by a Direct Activation of Pancreatic Fibroblasts During Chronic Pancreatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
IL‐4/IL‐13/STAT6 signaling plays a crucial for the suppression of pro‐inflammation during acute pancreatitis and supports acinar cell regeneration but has only minor impact on fibrogenesis during chronic form of the disease. IL‐4/IL‐13 induce the expression of certain collagens directly in pancreatic fibroblasts via STAT6 activation, whereas ...

Reduction of myocardial infarction by calpain inhibitors A-705239 and A-705253 in isolated perfused rabbit hearts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Two novel calpain inhibitors (A-705239 and A-705253) were studied in isolated perfused rabbit hearts subjected to 60-min occlusion of the ramus interventricularis of the left coronary artery (below the origin of the first diagonal branch), followed by ...

Cathepsin X deficiency alters the processing and localisation of cathepsin L and impairs cleavage of a nuclear cathepsin L substrate

open access: yesBiological Chemistry
Abstract Proteases function within sophisticated networks. Altering the activity of one protease can have sweeping effects on other proteases, leading to changes in their activity, structure, specificity, localisation, stability, and expression.

Elevator‐Like Hollow Channels in Porous Scaffolds Accelerate Vascularized Bone Regeneration via NETs‐Fibrin‐Mediated Macrophage Recruitment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that how hollow‐channel scaffolds promote vascularized bone regeneration via an immunomodulatory mechanism. The channel structures facilitate the formation of a neutrophil extracellular traps‐fibrin scaffold that recruits vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A)‐secreting M2 macrophages to drive angiogenesis. Combining this

Mediators of leukocyte yctivation play a role in disseminated intravascular coagulation during orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Leukocytes play an important role in the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In the reperfusion phase of OLT a DIC-like situation has been described and has been held responsible for the high blood loss during this phase.

Differential neuroproteomic and systems biology analysis of spinal cord injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Acute spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition with many consequences and no known effective treatment. Although it is quite easy to diagnose traumatic SCI, the assessment of injury severity and projection of disease progression or recovery ...

Stimuli‐Responsive Supramolecular Biomaterials for Cancer Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The ultimate goal of cancer theranostics is to get imaging agents and therapeutic cargo to tumor sites when and where they are required. “Smart” systems should be developed. This review discusses the characteristics of physiological stimuli, types and action modes of external stimuli, construction approaches and working principles, as well as ...
