The effect of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist therapy on markers of inflammation in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes:the MRC-ILA Heart Study [PDF]

, 2014
AIMS: Acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) are driven by inflammation within coronary plaque. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) has an established role in atherogenesis and the vessel-response to injury. ACS patients have raised serum markers of inflammation.

Truncated Chicken Interleukin-1β with Increased Biologic Activity [PDF]

, 2003
Chicken interleukin-1β (ChIL-1β) is synthesized as a precursor molecule that unlike its mammalian counterpart, lacks a typical caspase-1 cleavage site. Therefore, it was unclear if proteolytic cleavage of ChIL-1β can occur and if cleavage might modulate ...

Cynomolgus monkey model of interleukin‐31‐induced scratching depicts blockade of human interleukin‐31 receptor A by a humanized monoclonal antibody [PDF]

Experimental Dermatology, 2017
AbstractScratching is an important factor exacerbating skin lesions through the so‐called itch‐scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis (AD). In mice, interleukin (IL)‐31 and its receptor IL‐31 receptor A (IL‐31RA) are known to play a critical role in pruritus and the pathogenesis of AD; however, study of their precise roles in primates is hindered by the ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
