Expression of CC and CXC chemokines and chemokine receptors in human leprosy skin lesions.

, 2003
We have investigated the expression of chemokines and their receptors in leprosy skin lesions using immunohistochemistry. Skin biopsies from 25 leprosy patients across the leprosy spectrum, 11 patients undergoing type I reversal reactions and four normal

Fisetin Attenuates Human Macrophage Polarization and Pro‐Inflammatory Responses via NLRP3 and NF‐κB/MAPK Suppression

Cell Biology International, Volume 50, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural compounds with anti‐inflammatory properties are increasingly explored as therapeutic agents due to their lower risk of side effects compared with conventional drugs. Fisetin, a dietary bioflavonol abundant in fruits and vegetables, exhibits anti‐inflammatory activity in several cell types, including murine macrophages.

Transcriptomal signatures of vaccine adjuvants and accessory immunostimulation of sentinel cells by toll-like receptor 2/6 agonists

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2018
An important component of vaccine development is the identification of safe and effective adjuvants. We sought to identify transcriptomal signatures of innate immune stimulating molecules using next-generation RNA sequencing with the goal of being able ...

Genomic organization, annotation, and ligand-receptor inferences of chicken chemokines and chemokine receptor genes based on comparative genomics

BMC Genomics, 2005
Background Chemokines and their receptors play important roles in host defense, organogenesis, hematopoiesis, and neuronal communication. Forty-two chemokines and 19 cognate receptors have been found in the human genome.

Insights Into the Role of Platelet Factor 4 in Neurodegenerative Diseases

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
This review summarizes potential functions of platelet factor 4 (PF4) in neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) and discusses its promise as both a biomarker and a therapeutic target. Further elucidation of PF4 signaling pathways may provide new insights into disease mechanisms and uncover novel opportunities for targeted interventions in NDs.

Chemokines from a Structural Perspective

, 2017
Chemokines are a family of small, highly conserved cytokines that mediate various biological processes, including chemotaxis, hematopoiesis, and angiogenesis, and that function by interacting with cell surface G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs). Because

Immune cells in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm: Roles, regulation and targeted interventions

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of how macrophages, neutrophils, T cells and other immune cells infiltrate the aortic wall, undergo phenotypic shifts and interact with one another in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a lethal degenerative vascular disease with no approved clinical drugs. Immune

CXC chemokines generate age-related increases in neutrophil-mediated brain inflammation and blood-brain barrier breakdown.

, 1998
Children are at greater risk than adults of permanent brain damage and mortality following head injury or infection [1-5]. Rodent models have demonstrated a 'window of susceptibility' in young animals during which the brain parenchyma is at greater risk ...

Fibro‐Adipogenic Progenitor Ablation Triggers Muscle Atrophy Through Cell Death‐Induced Inflammation

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Skeletal muscle mass maintenance involves coordination of myofibers with mononuclear cell populations, including satellite cells, resident macrophages and fibro‐adipogenic progenitors (FAPs). FAPs, identified by surface expression of PDGFRα, are important contributors to muscle homeostasis, as genetic ablation of FAPs induces rapid ...
