The intestinal expulsion of the roundworm Ascaris suum is associated with eosinophils, intra-epithelial T cells and decreased intestinal transit time [PDF]
Ascaris lumbricoides remains the most common endoparasite in humans, yet there is still very little information available about the immunological principles of protection, especially those directed against larval stages.

Granzyme B inhibition reduces disease severity in autoimmune blistering diseases
Pemphigoid diseases involve autoimmune mediated blistering and immunopathology of the upper dermis. Here, the authors implicate granzyme B in the immunopathology in multiple in vivo models of pemphigoid diseases and utilise a topical granzyme B inhibitor

TREX1 DNA exonuclease deficiency, accumulation of single stranded DNA and complex human genetic disorders [PDF]
Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome (AGS) is an unusual condition that clinically mimics a congenital viral infection. Several genes have recently been implicated in the aetiology of this disorder. One of these genes encodes the DNA exonuclease TREX1. Recent work

Monocytes regulate the mechanism of T-cell death by inducing Fas-mediated apoptosis during bacterial infection. [PDF]
Monocytes and T-cells are critical to the host response to acute bacterial infection but monocytes are primarily viewed as amplifying the inflammatory signal.

Granzyme A binding to target cell proteins. Granzyme A binds to and cleaves nucleolin in vitro
The physiologic substrates of cytotoxic T lymphocyte granule-associated serine esterases (referred to hereafter as proteases or "granzymes"), and the role of these enzymes in cell-mediated activity remain unclear. We have developed an assay for possible ligands of the trypsin-like dimeric serine protease granzyme A based on Western immunoblotting ...

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