Modulation of Inflammation by Extracellular Granzyme A

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Granzyme A (GrA) has long been recognized as one of the key players in the induction of cell death of neoplastic, foreign or infected cells after granule delivery by cytotoxic cells.

Immunotherapeutic targeting of membrane Hsp70-expressing tumors using recombinant human granzyme B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: We have previously reported that human recombinant granzyme B (grB) mediates apoptosis in membrane heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70)-positive tumor cells in a perforin-independent ...

Decreased Expression of Cytotoxic Proteins in Decidual CD8+ T Cells in Preeclampsia

open access: yesBiology, 2021
In our study, we aimed to establish expression of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells in the decidua basalis and the maternal peripheral blood (mPBL) of severe and mild preeclampsia (PE) and compare to healthy pregnancies.

Improved Purification of Human Granzyme A/B and Granulysin Using a Mammalian Expression System

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Cytotoxic lymphocytes release proteins contained within the cytoplasmic cytolytic granules after recognition of infected or tumor target cells. These cytotoxic granular proteins (namely granzymes, granulysin, and perforin) are key immunological mediators

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies raised against recombinant human granzymes A and B and showing cross reactions with the natural proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The human serine proteases granzymes A and B are expressed in cytotoplasmic granules of activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells. Recombinant granzyme A and granzyme B proteins were produced in bacteria, purified and then used to raise ...

Granzyme B is dispensable in the development of diabetes in non-obese diabetic mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Pancreatic beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes is mediated by cytotoxic CD8(+) T lymphoctyes (CTL). Granzyme B is an effector molecule used by CTL to kill target cells.

Changes in Cell-Mediated Immunity (IFN-γ and Granzyme B) Following Influenza Vaccination

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is considered a key moderator of cell-mediated immunity. However, little is known about its association with granzyme B, which plays an important role in the effector function of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs).

NK cell-derived extracellular granzyme B drives epithelial ulceration during HSV-2 genital infection

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Genital herpes is characterized by recurrent episodes of epithelial blistering. The mechanisms causing this pathology are ill defined. Using a mouse model of vaginal herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) infection, we show that interleukin-18 (IL-18 ...
