Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The cell‐autonomous roles of interferon type 1 vary based on duration and intensity. While acute, robust signaling results in cancer cell cytotoxic effects, sustained, low‐level signaling is associated with tumor‐promoting effects. This review summarizes current research of IFN‐1 in cancer and within the clinical setting, with an emphasis on female ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Virus encoded cytokines and cytokine receptors
Parasitology, 1997 In order to replicate efficiently within the host, viruses have evolved multiple strategies to evade the host's immune system. In many cases viruses have actually hijacked various components of the host's immune system to ensure their own survival. One such strategy is the expression of virus encoded cytokines and cytokine receptors. Members of

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

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 ...

Ellagic acid alleviates adjuvant induced arthritis by modulation of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines [PDF]
, 2016 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown aetiology, but it is now clear that pro-inflammatory cytokines play a central role in its pathogenesis. Ellagic acid (EA) has a variety of biological activities including anti-oxidant,

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
