Effects of intense pulsed light treatment on tear cytokines and clinical outcomes in meibomian gland dysfunction.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) has become a prevalent ocular surface disorder. Its pathogenesis is regarded as a self-perpetuating inflammatory vicious circle.

Interleukin‐1α Mediates Pancreatic Fibroblast Activation, Regulates Immune Cell Recruitment and Fibrosis in Acute and Chronic Pancreatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During pancreatitis, IL‐1α is released from necrotic acinar cells. In response to IL‐1α, pancreatic fibroblasts release chemokines and cytokines that regulate the recruitment of immune cells to the damaged organ. Furthermore, IL‐1α primes fibroblasts, resulting in increased tissue fibrosis during chronic pancreatitis.

SNPs in inflammatory genes CCL11, CCL4 and MEFV in a fibromyalgia family study.

PLoS ONE, 2018
BackgroundFibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome with a high incidence in females that may involve activation of the immune system. We performed exome sequencing on chemokine genes in a region of chromosome 17 identified in a genome-wide family ...

The allergy-associated chemokine receptors CCR3 and CCR5 can be inactivated by the modified chemokine NNY-CCL11

, 2022
S.17-24Background: CC chemokine ligand 11 (CCL11) is the outstanding member of all described CC chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3) ligands and is shown to be selective for this receptor. However, it also activates CCR5 but only in the micromolar range.

Serum C-C motif ligand 11/Eotaxin-1 may serve as a candidate biomarker for postmenopausal osteoporosis [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2019
Background: The chemokine C-C motif ligand 11, also known as eotaxin-1, has been identified as a novel mediator of inflammatory bone resorption. However, little is known regarding a potential role for CCL11/Eotaxin-1 in postmenopausal osteoporosis ...

Elevated Plasma Chemokines for Eosinophils in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders during Remission

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
BackgroundA prominent pathological feature of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) is markedly greater eosinophilic infiltration than that seen in other demyelinating diseases, like multiple sclerosis (MS).

Poly(I:C)‐Activated Nasal Fibroblasts Promote Eosinophil Recruitment in CRSwNP

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by persistent mucosal inflammation and eosinophilic infiltration. Although epithelial and immune cells have been widely studied, the role of nasal fibroblasts in innate immune activation and eosinophil recruitment remains unclear.

Prediction of Acute Liver Injury Trajectory in Patients Following Acetaminophen Overdose: A Multibiomarker Machine Learning Proof‐of‐Concept Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Clinical translation of novel therapies can be hindered by heterogeneity‐driven sample size inflation in late‐stage trials. In acetaminophen‐induced liver injury (APAP DILI), many patients recover spontaneously, diluting investigational drug efficacy signals.

Association of accelerated long-term forgetting and senescence-related blood-borne factors in asymptomatic individuals from families with autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Accelerated long-term forgetting has been identified in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and is attributed to a selective impairment of memory consolidation in which the hippocampus plays a key role.
