Recombinant human interleukin-12 is the second example of a C-mannosylated protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The β-chain of human interleukin 12 (IL-12) contains at position 319-322, the sequence Trp-x-x-Trp. In human RNase 2 this is the recognition motif for a new, recently discovered posttranslational modification, i.e., the C-glycosidic attachment of a ...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta limits the expansion of pathogenic Th cells during central nervous system autoimmunity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs; PPAR-alpha, PPAR-delta, and PPAR-gamma) comprise a family of nuclear receptors that sense fatty acid levels and translate this information into altered gene transcription.

Interleukin 12 in Cancer Treatment

open access: yesFolia Biologica, 2011
Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is made up of two disulphidelinked chains, p35 and p40. The cytokine is produced by monocytes, macrophages, myeloid dendritic cells and B cells. It stimulates development of NK cells and TH1 differentiation of CD4+ T cells, thus participating in the regulation of the immune response (for a review, see Klein and Hořejší, 1997 ...

IL-12-mediated toxicity from localized oncolytic virotherapy can be reduced using systemic TNF blockade

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncology
Cytokine therapy represents an attractive option to improve the outcomes of cancer patients. However, the systemic delivery of these agents often leads to severe immune-related toxicities, which can prevent their efficient clinical use.

Sarilumab in Polyarticular‐Course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Dose‐Finding and One‐Year Analysis of a Phase 2b, Open‐Label, Multicenter Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective This study assessed sarilumab in treating patients with polyarticular‐course juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pcJIA). Methods This phase 2b, open‐label study (NCT02776735) consisted of three sequential parts (each with a core‐treatment and extension‐phase). During part 1, three doses were assessed in two weight groups (Group A/B: ≥30–60 kg/≥10–<
