Correlations between APACHE IIScore and Plasma Levels of Cytokines in Postsurgical Patients [PDF]

, 1996
This study was designed to assess whether plasma cytokines correlated with the clinical status of postsurgical patients. Plasma levels of cytokines in 72 patients admitted to the intensive care unit were measured using an Enzyme Linked Immuno Solubent ...

NOS2/ARG1 axis and immune cell ratios as promising prognostic and predictive biomarkers for Cetuximab combined with chemotherapy in wt-KRAS human colorectal cancer

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundResistance to epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibodies (anti-EGFR), such as cetuximab, remains a major therapeutic challenge. Growing evidence suggests that local tumor immune cells and systemic inflammation influence therapeutic ...

Genetic deficiency of NOD2 confers resistance to invasive aspergillosis

Nature Communications, 2018
NOD2 has been shown to be crucial for immune recognition of Aspergillus infection. Here the authors show that a common NOD2 genetic variant associated with Crohn’s disease is associated with reduced risk of disease due to enhanced antifungal activates of

Development of human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 by yeast display

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human monoclonal antibodies against TARM1 are generated by yeast display‐guided selection. These antibodies bind to soluble and cell‐surface forms of TARM1. Also, these antibodies exhibit agonistic activity in the NFAT‐GFP reporter assay, indicating that TARM1 signaling can be functionally modulated by antibodies and suggesting TARM1 as a potential ...

Comparative study of gp130 cytokine effects on corticotroph AtT-20 cells - Redundancy or specificity of neuroimmunoendocrine modulators? [PDF]

, 2004
Objective: This comparative in vitro study examined the effects of all known gp130 cytokines on murine corticotroph AtT-20 cell function. Methods: Cytokines were tested at equimolar concentrations from 0.078 to 10 nM.

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.

Comparative analysis of cutaneous features of psoriasis in acute and chronic imiquimod-induced mouse models

Scientific Reports
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. The imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse model is widely used to study psoriasis-like skin inflammation.

Quantitative proteomic analysis reveals different characteristics of bladder cancer cells after exposure to bisphenol A

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bisphenol A (BPA), a common chemical in plastics, exerts dual effects on bladder cancer cells: low doses promote growth and migration, while high doses suppress growth and migration. Multi‐omics and bioinformatics reveal BPA acts via MAPK and inflammatory pathways.
