Psoriasis and Leukocyte Chemotaxis.

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1987
Transepidermal migration of leukocytes, with resultant formation of microscopic or macroscopic sterile subcorneal pustules is a phenomenon characteristically noted in psoriasis and related sterile pustular dermatoses. It is natural to assume the presence of potent neutrophil chemotactic substances in the subcorneal portion of the lesional epidermis ...

Chemokines in the corpus luteum: Implications of leukocyte chemotaxis

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2003
Chemokines are small molecular weight peptides responsible for adhesion, activation, and recruitment of leukocytes into tissues. Leukocytes are thought to influence follicular atresia, ovulation, and luteal function.

A randomized double blinded placebo controlled clinical trial for the evaluation of green coffee extract on immune health in healthy adults

open access: yesJournal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine, 2022
Background: The immune system functions to protect the host from a broad array of infectious diseases. Here, we evaluated the in vitro immunomodulatory effects of green coffee extract (GCE), and conducted a double-blinded, randomized and placebo ...

Focal MMP-2 and MMP-9 Activity at the Blood-Brain Barrier Promotes Chemokine-Induced Leukocyte Migration

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Although chemokines are sufficient for chemotaxis of various cells, increasing evidence exists for their fine-tuning by selective proteolytic processing. Using a model of immune cell chemotaxis into the CNS (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis [EAE]

Signal-activated phospholipase regulation of leukocyte chemotaxis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Signal-activated phospholipases are a recent focus of the rapidly growing field of lipid signaling. The extent of their impact on the pathways regulating diverse cell functions is beginning to be appreciated.

CCR2 acts as scavenger for CCL2 during monocyte chemotaxis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundLeukocyte migration is essential for effective host defense against invading pathogens and during immune homeostasis. A hallmark of the regulation of this process is the presentation of chemokines in gradients stimulating leukocyte chemotaxis ...

Identification and validation of candidate genes dysregulated in alveolar macrophages of acute respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2021
Background Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common cause of death in ICU patients and its underlying mechanism remains unclear, which leads to its high mortality rate. This study aimed to identify candidate genes potentially implicating in

TLR signaling paralyzes monocyte chemotaxis through synergized effects of p38 MAPK and global Rap-1 activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that recognize pathogen associated molecular patterns and chemoattractant receptors (CKRs) that orchestrate leukocyte migration to infected tissue are two arms of host innate immunity.

A Functional Variant of CXCL16 Is Associated With Predisposition to Sepsis and MODS in Trauma Patients: Genetic Association Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
PurposeCXC chemokines are mediators which mediate immune cells migration to sites of inflammation and injury. Chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 16 (CXCL16) plays an important role in the occurrence and development of sepsis through leukocyte chemotaxis ...

"In vivo" leukocyte chemotaxis in experimental mice Schistosoma mansoni infection Quimiotaxia de leucócitos "in vivo" na infecção experimental por Schistosoma mansoni

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1994
The "in vivo" chemotaxis was studied in C57B1/10 mice 10, 30, 50 and 60 days after a Schistosoma mansoni infection in comparison to a control group (uninfected mice). Staphylococcal protein A was injected into a connective tissue air pouch of control and
