Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2014
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease with classical traits of demyelination, axonal damage, and neurodegeneration. The migration of autoimmune T cells and macrophages from blood to central nervous system as well as the destruction of blood brain barrier are thought to be the major processes in the development of this disease.

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Role of Cytokines, Chemokines and IFN-γ+ IL-17+ Double-Positive CD4+ T Cells in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Multiple sclerosis is mediated by self-reactive myelin T and B cells that lead to axonal and myelin damage. The immune response in multiple sclerosis involves the participation of CD4+ T cells that produce cytokines and chemokines.

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

The levels of circulating cytokines and risk of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder: a Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
BackgroundNeuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS). NMOSD pathogenesis involves systemic inflammation.

Amplification of N-Myc is associated with a T-cell-poor microenvironment in metastatic neuroblastoma restraining interferon pathway activity and chemokine expression

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2017
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have significantly improved the treatment of several cancers. T-cell infiltration and the number of neoantigens caused by tumor-specific mutations are correlated to favorable responses in cancers with a high mutation load ...

Regulation of Atherogenesis by Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesArchivum Immunologiae et Therapiae Experimentalis, 2012
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory and metabolic disorder affecting large- and medium-sized arteries, and the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The pathogenesis of atherosclerosis involves accumulation of lipids and leukocytes in the intima of blood vessel walls creating plaque.

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Association of the SNPs in CCL2 and CXCL12 genes with the susceptibility to breast cancer: a case-control study in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
BackgroundChemokines are well-known for playing an essential role in the development of cancer. However, the association between SNPs in the CCL2 and CXCL12 genes and the susceptibility to breast cancer remains unclear.MethodsA case-control study was ...

Chemokines, Chemokine Receptors, and Allograft Rejection [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2001
Chemokines are pivotal mediators in allograft rejection by virtue of their activity as regulators of leukocyte movement, adhesion, and effector function. Because the regulation of effector cell infiltration is complex, it is difficult to dissect the relative role of each chemokine in the inflammatory processes leading to allograft rejection, especially
