Dectin-1-Syk-CARD9 Signaling Pathway in TB Immunity [PDF]
One of the first steps toward mounting an effective immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is recognition of the pathogen through pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) expressed by innate immune cells. Activation of the PRR Dectin-1 by an unknown mycobacterial ligand triggers an intracellular signaling cascade involving numerous proteins ...

ABSTRACT Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a multifactorial condition characterized by excessive inflammation, immune dysfunction, and metabolic disorders. Current therapeutic strategies primarily rely on local injection, a traumatic approach associated with risks of tissue damage and infection.

Dectin‐1 mediates zymosan responses in microglia
Microglia are the major immune component of brain that play a central role in neuroinflammation. Microglia are normally quiescent but are rapidly activated in response to pathogens as well as physical, chemical, or ischemic injuries. Zymosan, a β‐glucan‐containing particle derived from yeast cell wall, is commonly used to activate microglia in ...

Internalization of Dectin‐1 terminates induction of inflammatory responses [PDF]
AbstractDectin‐1 is a pattern‐recognition receptor recognizing β‐(1,3)‐glucans found on fungal cell walls. Dectin‐1 plays an important role in immunity to fungi by mediating phagocytic clearance of fungal particles and inducing transcription of innate response genes.

The effect of β-glucans and their receptor Dectin-1 in tumor development remains controversial. Here the authors show that Dectin-1 signaling promotes the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) by inducing prostaglandin E2 production in myeloid-derived ...

Summary The term Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) has been used since 1999. As there are important differences, the terms Equine Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD) and Equine Glandular Gastric Disease (EGGD) were introduced in 2015. Risk factors like dietary management, training regimens and drug side effects, as described for NSAIDs, predispose ...

Co-regulation of Dectin-1 and TLR2 in inflammatory response of human corneal epithelial cells induced by Aspergillus fumigates [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the co-regulation of dendritic cell-associated C-type lectin-1 (Dectin-1), Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), and relative chemotactic factors in the Telomease-immortalized human corneal epithelial (THCE) cells after exposure to Aspergillus

Lung organoids as a human system for Mycobacteria infection modeling and drug testing
Mycobacterial infections, including tuberculosis (TB) and infections by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), are still public health issues. In 2023, TB caused 1.25 million deaths, while NTM remain a clinical challenge for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).

ABSTRACT Background Inflammation plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Linderalactone (LNL), as a natural sesquiterpene lactone, has been discovered to have anti‐inflammatory activation. However, the effects of linderalactone on diabetes‐associated renal damage remain unclear.
