Gap-junctional coupling between neutrophils and endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Communication between leukocytes and endothelial cells is crucial for inflammatory reactions. Paracrine cross-talk and outside-in signaling (via adhesion molecules) have been characterized as communication pathways to date.

The 5-Phosphatase SHIP2 Promotes Neutrophil Chemotaxis and Recruitment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Neutrophils, the most abundant circulating leukocytes in humans have key roles in host defense and in the inflammatory response. Agonist-activated phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are important regulators of many facets of neutrophil biology.

Severity of experimental escherichia-coli mastitis in ketonemic and nonketonemic dairy-cows. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The severity of experimental Escherichia coli mastitis in relation to in vitro chemotaxis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes was investigated in cows during negative energy balance. The negative energy balance was induced by feed restriction.

Weaning markedly affects transcriptome profiles and Peyer’s patch formation in piglet ileum

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Transcriptome analyses were conducted on the ileal mucosa of 14-35 day-old piglets to investigate postnatal gut development during suckling and post-weaning. The transcriptome profiles of 14 day-old suckling piglets showed a considerably higher number of

Pharmacological Inhibition of p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases Affects KC/CXCL1-Induced Intraluminal Crawling, Transendothelial Migration, and Chemotaxis of Neutrophils In Vivo

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2013
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling is critical in the pathophysiology of a variety of inflammatory processes. Leukocyte recruitment to the site of inflammation is a multistep process governed by specific signalling cascades.

Modulation of human lymphocyte function by C3a and C3a(70-77). [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Human C3a and the synthetic octapeptide C3a (70-77), which retains the activities of an anaphylatoxin, inhibit in a concentration-dependent manner the generation of leukocyte inhibitory factor (LIF) activity by human mononuclear leukocytes and T ...

Predicting Axonal Response to Molecular Gradients with a Computational Model of Filopodial Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Axons are often guided to their targets in the developing nervous system by attractive or repulsive molecular concentration gradients. We propose a computational model for gradient sensing and directed movement of the growth cone mediated by filopodia ...

Polymorphonuclear leukocyte functions enhanced by chemotaxis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Korean Medical Science, 1992
Human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) migrate into tissues in response to chemoattractants, yet it is not known whether this process alters the functional capabilities of the PMN. Using recombinant human interleukin-8 (rHIL-8, 100 ng/ml) as a stimulus, we compared a population of PMN that migrated through a polyvinylpyrrolidone-coated polycarbonate ...

Automated real-time measurements of leukocyte chemotaxis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Immunological Methods, 2007
We have previously described an automated system (ECIS/taxis) for measuring chemotactic movement of Dictyostelium amoebae in a folic acid gradient [Hadjout, N., Laevsky, G., Knecht, D.A. and Lynes, M.A., 2001. Automated real-time measurement of chemotactic cell motility. Biotechniques 31, 1130-1138.]. In the ECIS/taxis system, cells migrate in an under-

Effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and respiratory burst activity in human leukocytes

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2018
Arginine vasopressin can bind to high-affinity vasopressin V1a receptors in human leukocytes. This study aims to investigate the effects of arginine vasopressin on migration and chemotaxis of neutrophils and oxygen free radical release by human ...
