Role of Adaptive and Innate Immunity in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2018
After the recognition of the essential role of the immune system in the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus, more studies are focused on the effects produced by the abnormal differentiation of components of the immune system.

Tumor innate immunity primed by specific interferon-stimulated endogenous retroviruses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mesenchymal tumor subpopulations secrete pro-tumorigenic cytokines and promote treatment resistance1-4. This phenomenon has been implicated in chemorefractory small cell lung cancer and resistance to targeted therapies5-8, but remains incompletely ...

PHLPP1 counter-regulates STAT1-mediated inflammatory signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Inflammation is an essential aspect of innate immunity but also contributes to diverse human diseases. Although much is known about the kinases that control inflammatory signaling, less is known about the opposing phosphatases.

Cell lineage tracing reveals the plasticity of the hemocyte lineages and of the hematopoietic compartments in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Much of our knowledge on hematopoiesis, hematopoietic compartments, hematopoietic cell lineages and immunity has been derived from studies on the vertebrate immune system.

Oral and transdermal administration of lipopolysaccharide safely enhances self-healing ability through the macrophage network

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), also known as an endotoxin, is derived from Gram-negative bacteria. The intravenous administration of LPS induces an inflammatory response and causes systemic inflammation, such as cytokine storm.

Interferon Lambda Genetics and Biology in Regulation of Viral Control

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Type III interferons, also known as interferon lambdas (IFNλs), are the most recent addition to the IFN family following their discovery in 2003. Initially, IFNλ was demonstrated to induce expression of interferon-stimulated genes and exert antiviral ...

Microbiome-gut-brain axis and toll-like receptors in parkinson\u2019s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressively debilitating neurodegenerative disease characterized by α-synucleinopathy, which involves all districts of the brain-gut axis, including the central, autonomic and enteric nervous systems.

Encapsulation and Melanization Are Not Correlated to Successful Immune Defense Against Parasitoid Wasps in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesCells
Parasitoid elimination in Drosophila melanogaster involves special hemocytes, called lamellocytes, which encapsulate the eggs or larvae of the parasitoid wasps. The capsules are melanized, and metabolites of the melanization reaction may play a potential

ADAM17 selectively activates the IL‐6 trans‐signaling/ERK MAPK axis in KRAS‐addicted lung cancer

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2019
Oncogenic KRAS mutations are major drivers of lung adenocarcinoma (LAC), yet the direct therapeutic targeting of KRAS has been problematic. Here, we reveal an obligate requirement by oncogenic KRAS for the ADAM17 protease in LAC.

The Phagocytic Function of Macrophage-Enforcing Innate Immunity and Tissue Homeostasis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Macrophages are effector cells of the innate immune system that phagocytose bacteria and secrete both pro-inflammatory and antimicrobial mediators. In addition, macrophages play an important role in eliminating diseased and damaged cells through their ...
