Phosphorylation of fibroblast myosin [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1977
1. Introduction The fact that myosin might be phosphorylated has been known for more than a decade [l] . However, only recently have special kinases been described, in striated muscle [2] and in platelets [3] , which catalyze the phosphorylation of one of the light-chains of myosin.

miRNA‐29 regulates epidermal and mesenchymal functions in skin repair

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
miRNA‐29 inhibits cell‐to‐cell and cell‐to‐matrix adhesion by silencing mRNA targets. Adhesion is controlled by complex interactions between many types of molecules coded by mRNAs. This is crucial for keeping together the layers of the skin and for regenerating the skin after wounding.

The IL-20 Cytokine Family in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Spondyloarthritis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
This review describes the IL-20 family of cytokines in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and spondyloartrhitits (SpA) including psoriatic arthritis. The IL-20 receptor (R) cytokines IL-19, IL-20, and IL-24 are produced in both the peripheral blood and the ...

Stromal cells differentially regulate neutrophil and lymphocyte recruitment through the endothelium [PDF]

, 2010
Stromal fibroblasts modify the initial recruitment of leucocytes by endothelial cells (EC), but their effects on subsequent transendothelial migration remain unclear.

Synovial fibroblasts in 2017 [PDF]

RMD Open, 2017
Stromal cells like synovial fibroblasts gained great interest over the years, since it has become clear that they strongly influence their environment and neighbouring cells. The current review describes the role of synovial fibroblasts as cells of the innate immune system and expands on their involvement in inflammation and cartilage destruction in ...

STAT3 expression is reduced in cardiac pericytes in HFpEF and its loss reduces cellular adhesion and induces pericyte senescence

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for half of the heart failure cases. It is characterised by microvascular dysfunction, associated with reduced pericyte coverage and diminished STAT3 expression in pericytes. Loss of STAT3 impairs pericyte adhesion, promotes senescence, and activates a pro‐fibrotic gene program.

Corneal and Conjunctival Fibroblasts Are Major Sources of Eosinophil-Recruiting Chemokines

Allergology International, 2009
Background: Differential expression of chemokine genes were investigated in various types of ocular surface cells. Methods: Primary cultures of human corneal epithelial cells (n = 3), corneal fibroblasts (n = 2), conjunctival epithelial cells (n = 2) and

Macrophage and Fibroblast Interactions in Biomaterial‐Mediated Fibrosis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2019
Biomaterial‐mediated inflammation and fibrosis remain a prominent challenge in designing materials to support tissue repair and regeneration. Despite the many biomaterial technologies that have been designed to evade or suppress inflammation (i.e ...
