Transcriptomic profiling disclosed the role of DNA methylation and histone modifications in tumor-infiltrating myeloid-derived suppressor cell subsets in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Increased numbers of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are positively correlated with poor prognosis and reduced survivals of cancer patients. They play central roles in tumor immune evasion and tumor metastasis.

Bioinformatically analyzed relationships between specific human genes associated with HIV attachment
Introduction. Assessing interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human factors is crucial for understanding the disease pathogenesis. HIV triggers an immune response that involves numerous cellular and molecular processes related to

Dissecting the autocrine and paracrine roles of the CCR2-CCL2 axis in tumor survival and angiogenesis. [PDF]
The CCL2 CCR2 axis is likely to contributes to the development and progression of cancer diseases by two major mechanisms; autocrine effect of CCL2 as a survival/growth factor for CCR2+ cancer cells and, the attraction of CCR2+ CX₃CR1+tumor associated ...

Evaluation of the effect of GM-CSF blocking on the phenotype and function of human monocytes [PDF]
Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a multipotent cytokine that prompts the proliferation of bone marrow-derived macrophages and granulocytes.

Modulation of adult-born neurons in the inflamed hippocampus. [PDF]
Throughout life new neurons are continuously added to the hippocampal circuitry involved with spatial learning and memory. These new cells originate from neural precursors in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus, migrate into the granule cell layer,
