Human Urine Stem Cells Alleviate Pulmonary Fibrosis via Inhibiting Macrophage‐Myofibroblast Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Therapeutic role and mechanism of human urine stem cells (hUSCs) in pulmonary fibrosis. hUSCs alleviated pulmonary fibrosis by selectively inhibiting macrophage‐myofibroblast transition (MMT) in two ways: on one hand, hUSCs inhibited mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production and apoptosis/senescence of epithelial cells in pulmonary ...

The scavenging chemokine receptor ACKR2 has a significant impact on acute mortality rate and early lesion development after traumatic brain injury.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The atypical chemokine receptor ACKR2 promotes resolution of acute inflammation by operating as a scavenger receptor for inflammatory CC chemokines in several experimental models of inflammatory disorders, however its role in the brain remains unclear ...

CD31+ Cell Enrichment Enhances Therapeutic Effects of Stromal Vascular Fraction in Experimental Primary Osteoarthritis: A Preclinical Study in the Dunkin Hartley Guinea Pig Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Both SVF and CD31+ SVF improve spontaneous osteoarthritis, but CD31+ enrichment refines the therapeutic profile rather than broadly enhancing all effects. More distinct benefits are observed in extracellular matrix remodeling, osteochondral integrity, and subchondral/trabecular bone preservation, supporting CD31+‐enriched SVF as a biologically enhanced

Chemokine Signaling Pathway Involved in CCL2 Expression in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesYonsei Medical Journal, 2015
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory joint disorder, the progression of which leads to the destruction of cartilage and bone. Chemokines are involved in RA pathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the chemokine signaling pathway associated with CCL2 in peripheral blood (PB) and synovial tissues (ST) of RA patients based on our previous work

Epigenetic regulation of CC-chemokine ligand 2 in nonresolving inflammation

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2014
Inflammation mediated by the crosstalk between leukocytes and resident tissue cells is crucial for the maintenance of homeostasis. Because chemokine ligands and receptors, which recruit a variety of leukocytes, are widely distributed among tissues, it is

Neuron‐Derived MIF Engages VCAM1 to Fuel a Self‐Amplifying CXCL8 Loop That Drives Perineural Invasion and Metastasis in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuron‐derived MIF binds VCAM1 on gastric cancer cells and activates ERK/STAT3 signaling, leading to CXCL8 transcription and secretion. Tumor‐derived CXCL8 subsequently stimulates neuronal CXCR2 to enhance MIF production, establishing a self‐amplifying MIF–VCAM1–CXCL8 positive‐feedback loop that promotes perineural invasion, tumor progression, and ...

Matrix Stiffness Induces Endothelial Network Senescence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a 3D human in vitro model that decouples mechanical stress from inflammatory or biochemical signals, matrix stiffening induces a senescence phenotype in endothelial networks. This mechano‐induced senescence activates Notch signaling, and pharmacologic Notch inhibition attenuates this stiffness‐induced senescence.

Autoantigen mRNA‐LNP Vaccination Drives Therapeutic Efficacy in Preclinical Models for Autoimmunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Systemic and intramuscular delivery of autoantigen mRNA via lipid nanoparticles reprograms antigen‐presenting cells toward a mature, homeostatic state, driving antigen‐specific T cell exhaustion and providing therapeutic efficacy across autoimmune disease models.

Role of ALDH1A1 and HTRA2 expression in CCL2/CCR2-mediated breast cancer cell growth and invasion

open access: yesBiology Open, 2019
Chemokines mediate immune cell trafficking during tissue development, wound healing and infection. The chemokine CCL2 is best known to regulate macrophage recruitment during wound healing, infection and inflammatory diseases. While the importance of CCL2/
