AIF1+CSF1R+ MSCs, induced by TNF‐α, act to generate an inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Mesenchymal stem cells subset, educated by TNF‐α, are involved to generate inflammatory microenvironment and promote hepatocarcinogenesis Abstract Background and Aims Increasing evidence suggests that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) home to injured local tissues and the tumor microenvironment in the liver.

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (

Structural insights into glycan recognition by plant immune receptors: a comparative perspective with animal innate immune systems. [PDF]

Plant J
SUMMARY Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) function across diverse eukaryotic organisms as a powerful surveillance system to perceive danger signals and to trigger specific adaptive responses. This complex receptor network constitutes the first layer of perception of the innate immune system of plants and mammals.

Genetic Susceptibility to Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Narrative Literature Review Highlighting Evidence From African Populations and Research Gaps in Sudan. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) remains a significant public health burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries, particularly in sub‐Saharan Africa. Although socioeconomic factors contribute to disease persistence, genetic susceptibility plays a critical role in determining progression from Group A Streptococcal infection to ...

Cholesterol Crystals Activate the Lectin Complement Pathway via Ficolin-2 and Mannose-Binding Lectin: Implications for the Progression of Atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2016
Cholesterol crystals (CC) play an essential role in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. CC activate the classical and the alternative complement pathways, but the role of the lectin pathway is unknown.

Associations of ficolins and mannose-binding lectin with acute myeloid leukaemia in adults

Scientific Reports, 2020
We investigated clinical associations of ficolins and mannose-binding lectin (MBL) in 157 patients suffering from acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Concentrations of ficolin-1, ficolin-2, ficolin-3 and MBL (before chemotherapy) in serum were determined as ...

GALDIERO is CO-FIRST AUTHOR. Phagocytes as Corrupted Policemen in Cancer-Related Inflammation [PDF]

, 2015
Inflammation is a key component of the tumor microenvironment. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) are prototypic inflammatory cells in cancer-related inflammation.
