Wnt5a causes ROR1 to complex and activate cortactin to enhance migration of chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells (CLL) migrate between the blood and lymphoid tissues in response to chemokines. Such migration requires structured cytoskeletal-actin polymerization, which may involve the protein cortactin. We discovered that treatment

Matrix: a complex amalgam of structures and functions in tumor microenvironment

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The matrix is a dynamic, intricate three‐dimensional mesh of biomolecules with both structural and functional properties. This review deals with the complexity of this ‘molecular amalgam’ in the tumor microenvironment and highlights its importance in the maintenance and evolution of tumors by describing certain matrix biomolecules, such as ...

Downregulation of sST2, a decoy receptor for interleukin‐33, enhances subcutaneous tumor growth in murine pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Subcutaneous implantation of murine Panc02 pancreatic cancer cells depleted of sST2, a soluble decoy receptor for the proinflammatory interleukin‐33 (IL‐33), leads to a decreased number of GLUT4‐positive cancer‐associated adipocytes, reduced levels of the anti‐inflammatory molecule adiponectin, increased phosphorylation of IκBα, elevated Cxcl3 ...

Bioluminescent CXCL12 fusion protein for cellular studies of CXCR4 and CXCR7

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2009
Chemokine CXCL12 and its two known receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR7, may play a role in diseases including tumor growth and metastasis, atherosclerosis, and HIV infection. Therefore, these molecules may be promising targets for drug development.

Expression of CXCR4 on feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells: effect of feline immunodeficiency virus infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
CXCR4 expression on feline peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was analyzed. While monocytes and B lymphocytes expressed CXCR4, no CXCR4 was detected on T lymphocytes, in stark contrast to the expression pattern on T lymphocytes from humans.

Chemokines and their receptors in disease.

open access: yesHistology and histopathology, 2005
Chemokines are a family of structurally related low molecular weight (8-10 kDa) proteins that are important for the organization of tissues during development and regulate cell motility and localization both during development and in the adult. In the adult, this function is predominantly related to the trafficking of leukocytes, although more recently

Chemokines, chemokine receptors and the gastrointestinal system

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2013
The biological properties of tumor cells are known to be regulated by a multitude of cytokines and growth factors, which include epidermal growth factor receptor agonists and members of the transforming growth factor β family. Furthermore, the recent explosion of research in the field of chemokine function as mediators of tumor progression has led to ...

Key role for inhibins in effective T cell activation, migration and Th17 differentiation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activins/inhibins modulate immune responses. Here, we show that inhibins can be produced very early after T cell activation and can act in an autocrine way, favoring Th1 versus Th17 differentiation and CCL19/CCL21 mediated migration. Recombinant inhibin A can restore the Th1/Th17 balance, highlighting the role of inhibins as key regulators of T cell ...

Chemokine fractalkine/CX3CL1 negatively modulates active glutamatergic synapses in rat hippocampal neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We examined the effects of the chemokine fractalkine (CX3CL1) on EPSCs evoked by electrical stimulation of Schaffer collaterals in patch-clamped CA1 pyramidal neurons from rat hippocampal slices.

Circulating Interleukin‐6 Levels and Timing of Acute Ischemic Stroke Onset

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intravenous thrombolysis is the most widely available effective ischemic stroke treatment, but is approved only if given within 4.5 h from stroke onset. Many patients are not treated because stroke onset time is unknown. We evaluated the cytokine interleukin 6 (IL‐6) in circulating blood after acute ischemic stroke (AIS).
