Chemokines, Chemokine Receptors and Atherosclerosis
, 2005 Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on chemokines, chemokine receptors, and atherosclerosis. Chemokines play essential roles in inflammation and disease. This family of inflammatory mediators has diverse roles in both immune and inflammatory responses, including the regulation of cellular recruitment, activation, and differentiation.

Regulation of Atherogenesis by Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors [PDF]
Archivum 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.

Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

The Role of Chemokines in Breast Cancer Pathology and Its Possible Use as Therapeutic Targets
Journal of Immunology Research, 2014 Chemokines are small proteins that primarily regulate the traffic of leukocytes under homeostatic conditions and during specific immune responses. The chemokine-chemokine receptor system comprises almost 50 chemokines and approximately 20 chemokine ...

Chemokines and Chemokine Receptors in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Mediators 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.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.
