Interleukin-4 receptor signaling modulates neuronal network activity. [PDF]
Evidence is emerging that immune responses not only play a part in the central nervous system (CNS) in diseases but may also be relevant for healthy conditions. We discovered a major role for the interleukin-4 (IL-4)/IL-4 receptor alpha (IL-4Rα) signaling pathway in synaptic processes, as indicated by transcriptome analysis in IL-4Rα–deficient mice and

Interleukin-4 receptor alpha signaling regulates monocyte homeostasis. [PDF]
Abstract Interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) and its receptors (IL‐4R) promote the proliferation and polarization of macrophages. However, it is unknown if IL‐4R also influences monocyte homeostasis and if steady state IL‐4 levels are sufficient to affect monocytes. Employing full IL‐4 receptor alpha knockout mice (IL‐4Rα

Interleukin-4 Receptor Inhibition Targeting Metastasis Independent of Macrophages. [PDF]
Abstract Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma occurring in children and carries a dismal prognosis when metastatic disease is detected. Our previous work has suggested the cytokine receptor IL4Rα may play a role in contributing to metastasis in the alveolar subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma (aRMS), and thus could ...

Interleukin-4/interleukin-4 receptor gene polymorphisms in hand osteoarthritis [PDF]
IL-13/IL-4/IL-4R system has strong chondroprotective activity. We investigated polymorphisms in these genes as potential hand osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility loci by performing a case-control association study.Eighteen common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (nine in IL-4R, five in IL-4 and four in IL-13) were genotyped in 403 patients (380 ...

Human basophils express interleukin-4 receptors [PDF]
Abstract Interleukin-4 (IL-4), a multipotential lymphokine reputed to play an important role in the regulation of immune responses, interacts with a variety of hemopoietic target cells through specific cell surface membrane receptors. The present study was designed to investigate whether human basophils express IL-4 binding sites.

Myeloid differentiation factor 88 signaling in donor T cells accelerates graft-versus-host disease
Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) signaling has a crucial role in activation of both innate and adoptive immunity. MyD88 transduces signals via Toll-like receptor and interleukin-1 receptor superfamily to the NFκB pathway and inflammasome by ...
