Metalloprotease Dependent Release of Placenta Derived Fractalkine
The chemokine fractalkine is considered as unique since it exists both as membrane-bound adhesion molecule and as shed soluble chemoattractant. Here the hypothesis was tested whether placental fractalkine can be shed and released into the maternal ...

Influence of a Concurrent Exercise Training Intervention during Pregnancy on Maternal and Arterial and Venous Cord Serum Cytokines: The GESTAFIT Project [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to analyze the influence of a supervised concurrent exercise-training program, from the 17th gestational week until delivery, on cytokines in maternal (at 17th and 35th gestational week, and at delivery) and arterial and ...

Fractalkine and inflammatory diseases
The migration of leukocytes into inflamed peripheral tissues and lymphoid organs involves a cascade of molecular events finely regulated by cell adhesion molecules and chemokines. Fractalkine/CX3CL1 is a membrane-bound chemokine that functions not only as a chemoattractant but also as an adhesion molecule, and is expressed on endothelial cells ...

Fractalkine/CX3CR1 signaling during neuropathic pain [PDF]
Chronic pain represents a major problem in clinical medicine. Whilst the acute pain that is associated with tissue injury is a protective signal that serves to maintain homeostasis, chronic pain is a debilitating condition that persists long after the inciting stimulus subsides.

Targeting neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Almost 47 million people suffer from dementia worldwide, with an estimated new case diagnosed every 3.2 seconds. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) accounts for approximately 60%–80% of all dementia cases. Given this evidence, it is clear dementia represents one

Neuroprotective fractalkine in fetal alcohol syndrome [PDF]
Neuroprotective peptides (NAP+SAL) can prevent some alcohol-induced damage in fetal alcohol syndrome(FAS). Fractalkine, a chemokine constitutively expressed in the CNS reduces neuronal death from activated microglia. Using a model of FAS we evaluated if fractalkine is altered and if NAP+SAL work through fractalkine.Using a FAS model, C57BL6/J-mice were

Introduction. Fractalkine is a chemokine associated with atherosclerosis. Increased serum levels have been reported in unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) and to predict mortality in heart failure.

While most chemokine receptors fail to cross the chemokine class boundary with respect to the ligands that they bind, the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV)-encoded chemokine receptor US28 binds multiple CC-chemokines and the CX(3)C-chemokine Fractalkine. US28

Modulation of adult-born neurons in the inflamed hippocampus. [PDF]
Throughout life new neurons are continuously added to the hippocampal circuitry involved with spatial learning and memory. These new cells originate from neural precursors in the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus, migrate into the granule cell layer,

Fractalkine Attenuates Microglial Cell Activation Induced by Prenatal Stress
The potential contribution of inflammation to the development of neuropsychiatric diseases has recently received substantial attention. In the brain, the main immune cells are the microglia.
