Interleukin‐4 can induce interleukin‐4 production in dendritic cells

Immunology, 2005
SummaryThe presence of interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) during the generation of dendritic cells (DC) from precursor cells results in measurable increases of IL‐12 in supernatants but IL‐4 secretion has not been reported. However, DC have IL‐4 receptors and are able to make IL‐4. We therefore sought evidence for autocrine effects of IL‐4 on DC.

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Tuning the Cytokine Responses: An Update on Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 Receptor Complexes

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 are related cytokines that regulate many aspects of allergic inflammation. They play important roles in regulating the responses of lymphocytes, myeloid cells, and non-hematopoietic cells.

Prognostic values of β2 microglobulin, interleukin-4, and interleukin-6 in patients with different stages of chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Iraqi Journal of Hematology, 2020
BACKGROUND: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a monoclonal disorder characterized by relentless accumulation of monoclonal B-cell. Beta-2 microglobulin (β2m) is an extracellular protein that is bound to the chain of Class 1 major histocompatibility ...

Interleukin-4 and interleukin-4 receptor gene polymorphisms in inflammatory bowel diseases [PDF]

Genes & Immunity, 2001
Imbalances in the regulation of Th1 and Th2 lymphocytes are crucial in inflammatory bowel diseases. Interleukin-4 is secreted by Th2 lymphocytes and downregulates cytokine production from Th1 lymphocytes. Functionally relevant polymorphisms have been described in the interleukin-4 and the interleukin-4 receptor alpha genes.

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

The effect of noni fruit (Morinda citrifolia L.) extract on interleukin 4 and interleukin 10 in Wistar rats, induced by pyrazinamide, ethambutol and levofloxacin

Journal of Public Health in Africa, 2019
Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol and Levofloxacin are part of the anti-tuberculosis SLD that have many side effects. This response causes an inflammatory reaction that affects pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin 4 and interleukin 10.

Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

Interleukin 17A and Toll-like Receptor 4 in Patients with Arterial Hypertension

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2017
Background/Aims: Immune responses are involved in arterial hypertension. An observational cross-sectional case control study was conducted to estimate the association between Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression and interleukin (IL)-17A serum levels in

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.
