Lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2: The story continues
Abstract Inflammation is thought to play an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular diseases. Lipoprotein‐associated phospholipase A2 (Lp‐PLA2) mediates vascular inflammation through the regulation of lipid metabolism in blood, thus, it has been extensively investigated to identify its role in vascular inflammation‐related diseases, mainly ...

Flow cytometric analysis of inflammatory and resident myeloid populations in mouse ocular inflammatory models [PDF]
Myeloid cells make a pivotal contribution to tissue homeostasis during inflammation. Both tissue-specific resident populations and infiltrating myeloid cells can cause tissue injury through aberrant activation and/or dysregulated activity.

Small heat shock protein αA-crystallin prevents photoreceptor degeneration in experimental autoimmune uveitis. [PDF]
The small heat shock protein, αA-crystallin null (αA-/-) mice are known to be more prone to retinal degeneration than the wild type mice in Experimental Autoimmune Uveoretinitis (EAU).

Environmental conditioning in the control of macrophage thrombospondin-1 production [PDF]
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is a multifunctional protein which is secreted into the extracellular matrix during inflammation, where it modulates numerous components of the immune infiltrate.

Stochastic effects in autoimmune dynamics [PDF]
Among various possible causes of autoimmune disease, an important role is played by infections that can result in a breakdown of immune tolerance, primarily through the mechanism of ``molecular mimicry".

A low concentration of Tacrolimus/semifluorinated alkane (SFA) eyedrop suppresses intraocular inflammation in experimental models of uveitis [PDF]
PURPOSE: Corticosteroids remain the mainstay therapy for uveitis, a major cause of blindness in the working age population. However, a substantial number of patients cannot benefit from the therapy due to steroids resistance or intolerance.

Retinal S-antigen Th1 cell epitope mapping in patients with Behcet's disease [PDF]
Background - Retinal S-antigen (S-Ag) is a most characterized autoantigen of autoimmune uveitis. The recognized immunodominant epitope of human S-Ag in patients with uveitis has not been identified. In this study, we selected certain patients with active
