Degranulation deconstructed [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2012
Pediatricians first described the clinical features of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in 1959. Almost a decade later, in a collaborative effort that crossed disciplines, we participated in the discoveries that defined the cellular deficiencies of CGD, specifically finding that improper degranulation of leukocytes did not explain their failure to ...

The Enigma of Eosinophil Degranulation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Eosinophils are specialized white blood cells, which are involved in the pathology of diverse allergic and nonallergic inflammatory diseases. Eosinophils are traditionally known as cytotoxic effector cells but have been suggested to additionally play a role in immunomodulation and maintenance of homeostasis.

A role for eosinophils in the intestinal immunity against infective Ascaris suum larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The aim of this study was to explore the mechanisms of resistance against invading Ascaris suum larvae in pigs. Pigs received a low dose of 100 A. suum eggs daily for 14 weeks.

Stimulation of TRPV1 by green laser light [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Low-level laser irradiation of visible light had been introduced as a medical treatment already more than 40 years ago, but its medical application still remains controversial.

ORMDL3 Functions as a Negative Regulator of Antigen-Mediated Mast Cell Activation via an ATF6-UPR-Autophagy–Dependent Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Antigen (Ag)-mediated mast cell activation plays a critical role in the immunopathology of IgE-dependent allergic diseases. Restraining the signaling cascade that regulates the release of mast cell-derived inflammatory mediators is an attractive ...

Mast cell subsets and their functional modulation by the Acanthocheilonema viteae product ES-62 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
ES-62, an immunomodulator secreted by filarial nematodes, exhibits therapeutic potential in mouse models of allergic inflammation, at least in part by inducing the desensitisation of Fc휀RI-mediated mast cell responses.

Phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors attenuate virus‐induced activation of eosinophils from asthmatics without affecting virus binding

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2020
Acute respiratory virus infections, such as influenza and RSV, are predominant causes of asthma exacerbations. Eosinophils act as a double‐edged sword in exacerbations in that they are activated by viral infections but also can capture and inactivate ...

Cytoskeletal Transport, Reorganization, and Fusion Regulation in Mast Cell-Stimulus Secretion Coupling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Mast cells are well known for their role in allergies and many chronic inflammatory diseases. They release upon stimulation, e.g., via the IgE receptor, numerous bioactive compounds from cytoplasmic secretory granules. The regulation of granule secretion

Tissue eosinophilia and eosinophil degranulation in Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The etiology of Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis (IFT) has remained obscure. This rare disorder has been confused in the past with the more common fibrous variant of Hashimoto's disease.

KIR2DL2/2DL3-E(35) alleles are functionally stronger than -Q(35) alleles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
KIR2DL2 and KIR2DL3 segregate as alleles of a single locus in the centromeric motif of the killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene family. Although KIR2DL2/L3 polymorphism is known to be associated with many human diseases and is an important
