Expression of the Inhibitory CD200 Receptor Is Associated with Alternative Macrophage Activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Classical macrophage activation is inhibited by the CD200 receptor (CD200R). Here, we show that CD200R expression was specifically induced on human in vitro polarized macrophages of the alternatively activated M2a subtype, generated by incubation with IL-

An immune response to the avascular lens following wounding of the cornea involves ciliary zonule fibrils

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 34, Issue 7, Page 9316-9336, July 2020., 2020
Abstract The lens and central cornea are avascular. It was assumed that the adult lens had no source of immune cells and that the basement membrane capsule surrounding the lens was a barrier to immune cell migration. Yet, microfibril‐associated protein‐1 (MAGP1)‐rich ciliary zonules that originate from the vasculature‐rich ciliary body and extend along

Mesenchymal stromal cells and their derivatives – putative therapeutics in the management of autoimmune pancreatitis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 969-978, June 2020., 2020
Autoimmune pancreatitis frequently causes acute episodes with clinical symptoms parallel to those of acute pancreatitis. Due to their significant immunomodulatory capabilities, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been proposed as a novel treatment strategy for various immune and inflammatory pathologies including those with autoimmune origins.

Mesenchymal stem cells‐derived exosomes improve pregnancy outcome through inducing maternal tolerance to the allogeneic fetus in abortion‐prone mating mouse

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 363-370, May 2020., 2020
Abstract Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is three or more times of consecutive spontaneous loss of pregnancy. The underlying cause is complicated and the etiology of over 50% of RPL patients is unclear. In the present study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from CBA/J female mice and exosomes were isolated from cell culture medium by ...

Multimodal analysis of ocular inflammation using the endotoxin-induced uveitis mouse model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in rodents is a model of acute Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated organ inflammation, and has been used to model human anterior uveitis, examine leukocyte trafficking and test novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Rhodopsin-induced experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis in monkeys. [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Ophthalmology, 1989
We present the first evidence that purified rhodopsin can induce experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) in monkeys. Injection of a highly purified lipid-free rhodopsin preparation provokes severe chorioretinitis with concomitant anterior uveitis.

CD4+CCR6+ T cells, but not γδ T cells, are important for the IL‐23R‐dependent progression of antigen‐induced inflammatory arthritis in mice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 245-255, February 2020., 2020
Abstract IL‐23 plays an important role in the development of arthritis and the IL‐23 receptor (IL‐23R) is expressed on different types of T cells. However, it is not fully clear which IL‐23R+ T cells are critical in driving T cell‐mediated synovitis. We demonstrate, using knock‐in IL‐23R‐GFP reporter (IL‐23RGFP/+) mice, that CD4+CCR6+ T cells and γδ T

Macrophages and Uveitis in Experimental Animal Models

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
Resident and infiltrated macrophages play relevant roles in uveitis as effectors of innate immunity and inductors of acquired immunity. They are major effectors of tissue damage in uveitis and are also considered to be potent antigen-presenting cells. In
