Altered Plasma Metabolic Profiles in Chinese Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that leads to the demyelination of nerve axons. An increasing number of studies suggest that patients with MS exhibit altered metabolic profiles, which might contribute to the course of MS.

Apoptosis in vivo is followed almost inevitably by rapid uptake into adjacent phagocytic cells, a critical process in tissue remodeling, regulation of the immune response, or resolution of inflammation.

Molecular Basis of Selective Cytokine Signaling Inhibition by Antibodies Targeting a Shared Receptor
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) family cytokines are potent mediators of inflammation, acting to coordinate local and systemic immune responses to a wide range of stimuli. Aberrant signaling by IL-1 family cytokine members, however, is linked to myriad inflammatory

Genetic Regulation of Cytokine Response in Patients with Acute Community-acquired Pneumonia [PDF]
Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is an acute disease condition with a high risk of rapid deteriorations. We analysed the influence of genetics on cytokine regulation to obtain a better understanding of patient's heterogeneity. Methods: For up to N=389 genotyped participants of the PROGRESS study of hospitalised CAP patients, we performed ...

Modeling Microglia Activation and Inflammation-Based Neuroprotectant Strategies During Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
Neural inflammation immediately follows the onset of ischemic stroke. During this process, microglial cells can be activated into two different phenotypes: the M1 phenotype, which can worsen brain injury by producing pro-inflammatory cytokines; or the M2 phenotype, which can aid in long term recovery by producing anti-inflammatory cytokines.

Mitochondrial dysfunction could induce innate immune response with cytokines releasing to initiate Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) onset. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the mitochondrial displacement loop (D-loop) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy ...

A Fast Second-Order Explicit Predictor-Corrector Numerical Technique To Investigating And Predicting The Dynamic Of Cytokine Levels And Human Immune Cells Activation In Response To Gram-Positive Bacteria: Staphylococcus Aureus [PDF]
This paper develops a second-order explicit predictor-corrector numerical approach for solving a mathematical model on the dynamic of cytokine expressions and human immune cell activation in response to the bacterium staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The proposed algorithm is at least zero-stable and second-order accurate.
