NMI and IFP35 serve as proinflammatory DAMPs during cellular infection and injury
Nature Communications, 2017 Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMP) are important mediators of innate immunity. Here the authors show that N-myc and STAT interactor (NMI) and interferon-induced protein 35 (IFP35) act as DAMPs to promote inflammation by activating macrophages ...

Cell death in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases
Swiss Medical Weekly, 2011 Cell death is a ubiquitous process whose immunological consequences can influence the course of infectious, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. While cell death has long been dichotomised in terms of apoptosis and necrosis, other forms of death ...

The sensing of mitochondrial DAMPs by non-immune cells
Cell Stress, 2019 Mitochondria are the source of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which are molecules that play a key modulatory role in immune cells. These molecules include proteins and peptides, such as N-formyl peptides and TFAM, as well as lipids, and ...

The role of purine metabolites as DAMPs in acute graft-versus-host disease.
Frontiers in Immunology, 2016 Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) causes high mortality in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). An early event in the classical pathogenesis of acute GVHD is tissue damage caused by the conditioning ...
