The Role of Cytokines in Activation of Coagulation and Fibrinolysis in Dengue Shock Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In a prospective clinical study of 50 patients with Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS), we investigated the association of tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), and IL-6 with activation markers of coagulation

Suppression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3-dependent B lymphocyte terminal differentiation by BCL-6 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Lymphocytes usually differentiate into effector cells within days after antigen exposure, except in germinal centers where terminal differentiation is delayed while somatic hypermutation creates high-affinity antibody mutants. Here we investigate whether

d(GGGT)4and r(GGGU)4are both HIV-1 inhibitors and interleukin-6 receptor aptamers [PDF]

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2013
Aptamers are oligonucleotides that bind targets with high specificity and affinity. They have become important tools for biosensing, target detection, drug delivery and therapy. We selected the quadruplex-forming 16-mer DNA aptamer AID-1 [d(GGGT) 4] with affinity for the interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) and identified single nucleotide variants that ...

A single aromatic residue in sgp130Fc/olamkicept allows the discrimination between interleukin-6 and interleukin-11 trans-signaling

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Blocking the activity of cytokines is an efficient strategy to combat inflammatory diseases. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) fulfills its pro-inflammatory properties via its soluble receptor (IL-6 trans-signaling).

High efficacy and retention rate of levilimab in the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis in real-life practice

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология
Previously published results of a retrospective analysis showed that switching to levilimab from other interleukin 6 receptor inhibitor (iIL6R) allows maintaining the achieved effect, and in some cases, increasing the effectiveness of treatment.

Microarray Analysis of Gene Expression in Chondrosarcoma Cells Stimulated with Bee Venom

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacopuncture, 2004
봉독은 관절염 치료를 비롯한 여러 질환에 그 응용범위가 넓어지고 있으며 기전규명과 새로운 치료효과 개발을 위한 연구가 필요하다. 연골의 파괴는 진행된 각종 관절병증의 공통 병리기전이며 연골세포의 기능이상은 이 기전에 중요한 의미를 지닌다. 사람 연골세포의 특성을 유지하고 있는 HTB-94 연골육종세포를 배양하고 봉독을 처치했을 때의 유전자 발현양상을 microarray를 이용하여 관찰하였다. 대조군에 비해 4배 이상 발현의 차이가 있는 경우를 유의한

Inter-α-Inhibitor Impairs TSG-6-Induced Hyaluronan Cross-Linking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Under inflammatory conditions and in the matrix of the cumulus-oocyte complex (COC), the polysaccharide hyaluronan (HA) becomes decorated covalently with heavy chains (HCs) of the serum glycoprotein inter-α-inhibitor (IαI).

Structures of the interleukin 11 signalling complex reveal gp130 dynamics and the inhibitory mechanism of a cytokine variant

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Interleukin (IL-)11, an IL-6 family cytokine, has pivotal roles in autoimmune diseases, fibrotic complications, and solid cancers. Despite intense therapeutic targeting efforts, structural understanding of IL-11 signalling and mechanistic insights into ...

IGF-1 and PDGF-bb suppress IL-1β-induced cartilage degradation through down-regulation of NF-κB signaling: involvement of Src/PI-3K/AKT pathway. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). Growth factors (GFs) capable of antagonizing the catabolic actions of cytokines may have therapeutic potential in the treatment of OA.
