Specific features of human monocytes activation by monophosphoryl lipid A
Scientific Reports, 2018 We deciphered the mechanisms of production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines by adherent human blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA).

Receptors for hematopoietic regulatory cytokines overview of structure and function [PDF]
, 1995 The production of blood cells is regulated by the action of external factors, cytokines, that can be released by many cell types. In the first place, a population of multipotent stem cells, mostly in the resting Go phase of the cell cycle, but with self ...

Cytokines and autoimmunity [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 1994 SUMMARYAlthough the immunopathology of most autoimmune diseases has been well defined, the mechanisms responsible for the breakdown of self-tolerance and which lead to the development of systematic and organ-specific autoaggression are still unclear. Evidence has accumulated which supports a role for a disregulated production of cytokines by leucocytes

IL-7-Adjuvanted Vaginal Vaccine Elicits Strong Mucosal Immune Responses in Non-Human Primates
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Mucosal immune responses are crucial in protecting against pathogens entering through mucosal surfaces. However, due to poor T-cell responsiveness upon mucosal antigenic stimulation, mucosal immunity remains difficult to obtain through vaccines and ...

Local pro-inflammatory cytokine and nitric oxide responses are elevated in patients with pterygium
International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2017 Pterygium is a common ocular surface disease observed in humans. Chronic ultraviolet (UV) exposure is extensively recognized as an aetiological factor in the pathogenesis of this disease.

Potential Role of Vδ2+ γδ T Cells in Regulation of Immune Activation in Primary HIV Infection
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Although conventional regulatory T cells (Tregs) are sufficient in controlling low residual T-cell activation in ART-treated patients, they are not efficient in controlling exaggerated immune activation associated with high levels of HIV replication in ...
