Ultra-purification of Lipopolysaccharides reveals species-specific signalling bias of TLR4: importance in macrophage function

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
TLR4 location, and bacterial species-derived lipopolysaccharides, play a significant role in the downstream activation of transcription factors, accessory molecules, and products.

Inflammation in Chronic Wounds [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016
Non-healing chronic wounds present a major biological, psychological, social, and financial burden on both individual patients and the broader health system. Pathologically extensive inflammation plays a major role in the disruption of the normal healing cascade.

TLRs and chronic inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2010
After the discovery of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), innate immune mechanisms came back in the focus of scientific research. With more and more mechanisms of TLR biology known, it has become clear that these and also other innate immune receptors are not only of crucial importance in the immune response to invading pathogens, but also play a role in the ...

Prostaglandins and chronic inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Chronic inflammation is the basis of various chronic illnesses including cancer and vascular diseases. However, much has yet to be learned how inflammation becomes chronic. Prostaglandins (PGs) are well established as mediators of acute inflammation, and recent studies in experimental animals have provided evidence that they also function in transition

5,2′-Dibromo-2,4′,5′-trihydroxydiphenylmethanone Inhibits LPS-Induced Vascular Inflammation by Targeting the Cav1 Protein

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Vascular inflammation is directly responsible for atherosclerosis. 5,2′-Dibromo-2,4′,5′-trihydroxydiphenylmethanone (TDD), a synthetic bromophenol derivative, exhibits anti-atherosclerosis and anti-inflammatory effects.

GSK3β-dependent lysosome biogenesis: An effective pathway to mitigate renal fibrosis with LM49

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Renal fibrosis is an incurable disorder characterised by an imbalance of the extracellular matrix (ECM) favouring excess production over degradation.

Glucocorticoids and chronic inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesRheumatology, 2016
Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that once bound to their receptor interact with the DNA binding domain. Almost 1000-2000 genes are sensitive to their effects, including immune/inflammatory response genes. However, their role in pathophysiology and therapy is still debated.

Chronic morphine regulates TRPM8 channels via MOR-PKCβ signaling

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2020
Postoperative shivering and cold hypersensitivity are major side effects of acute and chronic opioid treatments respectively. TRPM8 is a cold and menthol-sensitive channel found in a subset of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) nociceptors.

A bronchoprotective role for Rgs2 in a murine model of lipopolysaccharide-induced airways inflammation

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2018
Background Asthma exacerbations are associated with the recruitment of neutrophils to the lungs. These cells release proteases and mediators, many of which act at G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that couple via Gq to promote bronchoconstriction and ...

Evolutionary Approaches to Combat Antibiotic Resistance: Opportunities and Challenges for Precision Medicine

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacterial pathogens is acknowledged by the WHO as a major global health crisis. It is estimated that in 2050 annually up to 10 million people will die from infections with drug resistant pathogens if no ...
