NFIL3 contributes to cytotoxic T lymphocyte-mediated killing

open access: yesOpen Biology
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are key effectors of the adaptive immune system that recognize and eliminate virally infected and cancerous cells. In naive CD8+ T cells, T-cell receptor (TCR) engagement drives a number of transcriptional, translational ...

Elevated serum granzyme B levels are associated with disease activity and joint damage in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Objectives Little is known about the roles of granzyme B in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We aimed to evaluate the serum level of granzyme B in patients with RA and determine relationships with clinical features and joint destruction of RA.

Granzymes at a glance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2006
Defence against virally infected and malignant cells depends on the action of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells ([Barry and Bleackley, 2002][1]; [Russell and Ley, 2002][2]). Although these use several mechanisms to eliminate target cells, the principal event is secretion of ...

Siah2 control of T-regulatory cells limits anti-tumor immunity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Understanding the mechanisms underlying anti-tumor immunity is pivotal for improving immune-based cancer therapies. Here, we report that growth of BRAF-mutant melanoma cells is inhibited, up to complete rejection, in Siah2-/- mice.

Reduced vascular leakage correlates with breast carcinoma T regulatory cell infiltration but not with metastatic propensity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A mouse model for vascular normalization and a human breast cancer cohort were studied to understand the relationship between vascular leakage and tumor immune suppression. For this, endothelial and immune cell RNAseq, staining for vascular function, and immune cell profiling were employed.

PENGARUH PEMBERIAN ECHINACEA TERHADAP PERBEDAAN EKSPRESI GRANZYME DAN PERKEMBANGAN MASSA TUMOR PADA ADENOKARSINOMA MAMMA MENCIT C3H YANG MENGALAMI STRESS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Echinacea contains some active compounds which could induce mononuclear cells activiy. Patients with breast carcinoma and stress, the immunity was depress. Echinacea will increase mononuclear cell granzyme expression.

Granzyme B prevents aberrant IL-17 production and intestinal pathogenicity in CD4+ T cells

open access: yesMucosal Immunology, 2020
CD4+ T cell activation and differentiation are important events that set the stage for proper immune responses. Many factors are involved in the activation and differentiation of T cells, and these events are tightly controlled to prevent unwanted and/or

Granzymes Regulate Proinflammatory Cytokine Responses [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2015
Abstract Granzymes (Grs) are serine proteases mainly produced by cytotoxic lymphocytes and are traditionally considered to cause apoptosis in tumor cells and virally infected cells. However, the cytotoxicity of several Grs is currently being debated, and additional, predominantly extracellular, functions of Grs in inflammation are ...

Synthetic Nanobiology Actuated Lipometabolic Cell Factory for Autologous Tumor Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
FA plays a crucial role in the interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment, especially for the immune response. A biocatalytic immunoenhancement strategy is developed to boost antitumor immunity by FA metabolic orientation to ceramide. Through the design of this delicate catalytic immunoenhancement strategy, the synthetic nanobiology

Study of serum Granzyme B in heavy cigarette smokers with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2014
Background: Inflammation of the airways is present in COPD with increased number of inflammatory cells including killer cells that lyse their target cells by two mechanisms; membranolysis in which secreted molecules such as granzymes form pores in the ...
