Evaluation of lymphocyte migration to induced paederus dermatitis: An experimental study in rats

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2019
Background: Paederus dermatitis (PD) is a blistering disorder that is caused by a small insect of the genus Paederus, especially Paederus fuscipes. This study aimed to investigate the reaction of the adaptive immune system regarding the recruitment of ...

Humanized anti CCR4 antibody KW0761 targets HTLV-1 infected CD4+ CCR4+ and CD8+CCR4+ T cells to treat HAM/TSP [PDF]

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2015
Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1) can cause HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL). Since the prognosis for HAM/TSP patients is extremely poor, there is a strong demand for a novel therapeutic strategy, especially one which would effectively reduce HTLV-1 proviral load ...

Ccr4-not regulates RNA polymerase I transcription and couples nutrient signaling to the control of ribosomal RNA biogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Ribosomal RNA synthesis is controlled by nutrient signaling through the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway. mTORC1 regulates ribosomal RNA expression by affecting RNA Polymerase I (Pol I)-dependent transcription of the ribosomal ...

Small Molecule CCR4 Antagonists Protect Mice from Aspergillus Infection and Allergy

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The ability to regulate the recruitment of immune cells makes chemokines and their receptors attractive drug targets in many inflammatory diseases. Based on its preferential expression on T helper type 2 (Th2) cells, C-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4 ...

Smoking affects gene expression in blood of patients with ischemic stroke. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ObjectiveThough cigarette smoking (CS) is a well-known risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS), there is no data on how CS affects the blood transcriptome in IS patients.MethodsWe recruited IS-current smokers (IS-SM), IS-never smokers (IS-NSM), control ...

Lung dendritic cells imprint T cell lung homing and promote lung immunity through the chemokine receptor CCR4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
T cell trafficking into the lung is critical for lung immunity, but the mechanisms that mediate T cell lung homing are not well understood. Here, we show that lung dendritic cells (DCs) imprint T cell lung homing, as lung DC–activated T cells traffic ...

A CCR4 antagonist enhances DC activation and homing to the regional lymph node and shows potent vaccine adjuvant activity through the inhibition of regulatory T-cell recruitment

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2018
CCR4 is a major chemokine receptor expressed by Treg cells that downregulate immune responses. Here, we investigated the role of CCR4-mediated Treg cell recruitment in antigen-specific immune responses.

The Ccr4-Not complex regulates TORC1 signaling and mitochondrial metabolism by promoting vacuole V-ATPase activity.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
The Ccr4-Not complex functions as an effector of multiple signaling pathways that control gene transcription and mRNA turnover. Consequently, Ccr4-Not contributes to a diverse array of processes, which includes a significant role in cell metabolism.

Multifunctional roles of the mammalian CCR4-NOT complex in physiological phenomena

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2014
The CCR4-NOT complex serves as one of the major deadenylases of eukaryotes. Although it was originally identified and characterized in yeast, recent studies have revealed that the CCR4-NOT complex also exerts important functions in mammals, including ...
