cAMP-elevating agents suppress dendritic cell function

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2001
AbstractThe administration of cAMP-elevating agents affects a number of autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. Because dendritic cells (DCs) play a pivotal role in autoimmunity and inflammation, the isolated effects of cAMP-elevating agents on the function of DCs was examined.

Dendritic Cell Therapy for Type 1 Diabetes Suppression

Immunotherapy, 2012
While dendritic cell-based therapy is a clinical reality for human malignancies, until now, some conceptual concerns have served to delay its consideration to treat human autoimmune diseases, even in light of almost two decades' worth of overwhelmingly supportive preclinical animal studies.

Suppression of dendritic cells' maturation and functions by daidzein, a phytoestrogen

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 2011
Isoflavones are ubiquitous compounds in foods and in the environment in general. Daidzein and genistein, the best known of isoflavones, are structurally similar to 17β-estradiol and known to exert estrogenic effects. They also evidence a broad variety of biological properties, including antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic, anti-atherogenic and anti ...

Suppressing Lithium Dendrite Growth with a Single-Component Coating

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2017
A single-component coating was formed on lithium (Li) metal in a lithium iodide/organic carbonate [dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and ethylene carbonate (EC)] electrolyte. LiI chemically reacts with DMC to form lithium methyl carbonate (LMC), which precipitates and forms the chemically homogeneous coating layer on the Li surface.

Dendritic Polymers as Fire Suppressants

1999
Abstract : This report describes an evaluation of the applicability of one of the latest advances in polymer technology (dendritic polymers) to suppressing fires, one of the greatest survivability threats to military personnel and vehicles. Certain types of alkali and transition metal complexes are known to have the capability to act as fire ...

Suppression of experimental colitis in mice by CD11c+ dendritic cells

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, 2009
The innate immune system serves a critical role in homeostasis of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Both macrophages (MØs) and dendritic cells (DCs) have been shown to have pathogenic roles in animal models of inflammatory bowel disease. However, studies by several labs have established that resident MØs and DCs within the normal GI tract maintain an ...

Dendrites in Lithium Metal Anodes: Suppression, Regulation, and Elimination

Accounts of Chemical Research, 2019
With the increasing diversification of portable electronics and large-scale energy storage systems, conventional lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with graphite anodes are now approaching their theoretical limits. Lithium metal, as the "Holy Grail" electrode for next-generation rechargeable batteries, is being revisited to meet the booming demand for high ...

Stimulatory and suppressive effects of infection of dendritic cells with HIV-1

Immunology Letters, 1991
Two effects of HIV infection on human dendritic cells (DC) in vitro have been examined. The first was the stimulation of primary responses to HIV antigens in autologous lymphocytes from normal donors. When DC were exposed to HIV (10(4) TCID/10(5) cells) for up to 24 h before addition to autologous lymphocytes, a marked primary proliferative response to

Activation and suppression of renin–angiotensin system in human dendritic cells

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2002
We previously identified the gene expression of renin-angiotensin system in human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs). This study was conducted to examine the mechanisms by which angiotensin II and captopril, the inhibitor of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), affect human DCs.

RelB suppresses type I Interferon signaling in dendritic cells

Cellular Immunology, 2020
Type I Interferon (IFN) signaling plays a critical role in dendritic cell (DC) development and functions. Inhibition of hyper type I IFN signaling promotes cDC2 subtype development. Relb is essential to development of cDC2 subtype and here we analyzed its effect on type I IFN signaling in DCs.
