Urinary Soluble Collagen Levels Are Associated With Moderate/Severe LUTS

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Expansion of the stromal compartment of the prostate concurrent with fibroblast activation and increased collagenization is now recognized as a pathobiology likely contributing to Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). However, approaches to quantitatively and, ideally, non‐invasively, assess prostatic collagenization in vivo are not ...

The CXC Chemokine Receptor 2, CXCR2, Is the Putative Receptor for ELR+ CXC Chemokine-Induced Angiogenic Activity [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2000
Abstract We have previously shown that members of the ELR+ CXC chemokine family, including IL-8; growth-related oncogenes α, β, and γ; granulocyte chemotactic protein 2; and epithelial neutrophil-activating protein-78, can mediate angiogenesis in the absence of preceding inflammation.

Re: Chemokines in Cancer

, 2016
Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that regulate the trafficking and positioning of cells by activating the seven-transmembrane spanning G protein-coupled chemokine receptors (GPCR) or non G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane spanning receptors called

Sodium Ions Affect GPR17 Conformational States and Functionality

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sodium is an allosteric modulator of several class‐A GPCR regulating active versus inactive conformation state and may be a critical issue for the optimization of crystallization procedures. Herein, the role of Na+ in the regulation of GPR17 conformational states was studied through MD simulations of GPR17 wild‐type and mutated on two ...

Interferon-inducible CXC-chemokines are crucial immune modulators and survival predictors in colorectal cancer.

, 2017
Tumor-infiltrating T-cells are strongly associated with prognosis in colorectal cancer, but the mechanisms governing intratumoral lymphocyte recruitment are unclear.

Phloretin Ameliorates Rheumatoid Arthritis by Suppressing HIF‐1α‐Dependent Angiogenesis and Modulating of the Autophagy–Apoptosis Balance

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Phloretin (PHL) is an effective monomer component of Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex, Spica Prunellae, and fleshy fruits and exerts therapeutic effects on rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the underlying mechanism is yet to be elucidated. Following PHL treatment, therapeutic benefits were evaluated in a collagen‐induced arthritis (CIA) rat ...

Potential of Ginkgo biloba Extract to Intervene in Chronic Inflammation‐Related Diseases

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Chronic inflammation is a pathological mechanism underpinning many diseases. Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE) is well known for its anti‐inflammatory property. GBE and its active constituents have been shown to attenuate pro‐inflammatory cytokine production, suppress nuclear factor kappa B activation, restore redox homeostasis, and modulate disease‐relevant

The immunological landscape of the area postrema in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive neuromyelitis spectrum disorder is characterized by large tissue destructive lesions in medulla, spinal cord, and optic nerves, with only partial recovery from clinical symptoms, and by lesions with very little tissue destruction and mostly complete recovery from clinical symptoms, as seen in the area postrema ...

Alamandine/MrgD pathway modulates gut–bone marrow axis in ageing

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Ageing is associated with colon epithelial barrier disruption and up‐regulation of myelopoiesis in the bone marrow (BM). Alamandine (Ala) and MrgD are novel members of the renin angiotensin system (RAS). This study tested the hypothesis that Ala restores the colon epithelial barrier integrity in ageing via modulating gut–

Critical role of CXC chemokines in endotoxemic liver injury in mice.

, 2003
Tissue accumulation of leukocytes constitutes a rate-limiting step in endotoxin-induced tissue injury. Chemokines have the capacity to regulate leukocyte trafficking.
