Class-switched anti-insulin antibodies originate from unconventional antigen presentation in multiple lymphoid sites [PDF]

, 2016
Autoantibodies to insulin are a harbinger of autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes in humans and in non-obese diabetic mice. To understand the genesis of these autoantibodies, we investigated the interactions of insulin-specific T and B lymphocytes using T ...

Interleukin 4 potently enhances murine macrophage mannose receptor activity: a marker of alternative immunologic macrophage activation

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1992
Expression of the macrophage mannose receptor is inhibited by interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), a T helper type 1 (Th-1)-derived lymphokine. Interleukin 4 (IL-4), a Th-2 lymphocyte product, upregulates major histocompatibility class II antigen expression but

The Regulatory Effects of Interleukin-4 Receptor Signaling on Neutrophils in Type 2 Immune Responses

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) receptor (IL-4R) signaling plays a pivotal role in type 2 immune responses. Type 2 immunity ensures several host-protective processes such as defense against helminth parasites and wound repair, however, type 2 immune responses also ...

Concentrations of matrix metallopeptidase 9, interleukin 4, and interleukin 8 in follicular fluid, and the results of fertilization

Journal of International Medical Research, 2022
Objective Cytokines and enzymes in follicular fluid (FF) may have a crucial role in fertility. This study aimed to analyse the results of in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer (IVF/ET) and compare them with matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and ...

Potential Risks Related to Modulating Interleukin-13 and Interleukin-4 Signalling: A Systematic Review

Drug Safety, 2018
IntroductionInterleukin-13 and interleukin-4 are type-II cytokines signalling through the shared type II interleukin-4 receptor. As a result of their structural similarity, interleukin-13 and interleukin-4 have overlapping functions in the mediation of ...

Interleukin-4 and interleukin-5 as targets for the inhibition of eosinophilic inflammation and allergic airways hyperreactivity

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1997
Clinical and experimental investigations suggest that allergen-specific CD4+ T-cells, IgE and the cytokines IL-4 and IL-5 play central roles in initiating and sustaining an asthmatic response by regulating the recruitment and/or activation of airways ...

A comprehensive analysis of interleukin-4 receptor polymorphisms and their association with atopy and IgE regulation in childhood [PDF]

, 2004
Background: The interleukin (IL) 4/IL13 pathway is involved in the regulation of IgE production associated with atopic diseases. Numerous polymorphisms have been identified in the coding region of the IL4 receptor alpha chain (IL4Ra) and previous ...

Lack of association between interleukin 13, interleukin 4 receptor alpha, andMS4A2 gene polymorphisms and asthma in adult Saudis

Journal of Nature and Science of Medicine, 2020
Objectives: Several genes, including interleukin-13 (IL13), MS4A2, and IL 4 receptor alpha (IL4Rα), have been shown to associate with the inflammatory process in asthma.

Signaling via interleukin-4, receptor alpha chain is required for successful vaccination against schistosomiasis in BALB/c mice [PDF]

, 2001
Radiation-attenuated (RA) schistosome larvae are potent stimulators of innate immune responses at the skin site of exposure (pinna) that are likely to be important factors in the development of Th1-mediated protective immunity.
