Concentrations of Interleukin-1ß in Gingival Crevicular Fluid and Saliva – a Potential Diagnostic Biomarker of Periodontal Diseases [PDF]
Introduction: Bacterial challenge in periodontal diseases activates both local and systemic immune responses of a macroorganism by increasing multiple proinflammatory factors that can be discovered in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and in saliva.

Salt intake induces epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of the peritoneal membrane in rats [PDF]
Methods. Twenty-eight Wistar rats were randomized to a normal salt (NS) or a high salt (HS) intake. NS and HS rats had free access to tap water or NaCl 2% as drinking water, respectively.

Nlrp6 promotes recovery after peripheral nerve injury independently of inflammasomes [PDF]
Background: NOD-like receptors (Nlrs) are key regulators of immune responses during infection and autoimmunity. A subset of Nlrs assembles inflammasomes, molecular platforms that are activated in response to endogenous danger and microbial ligands and ...

PKR deficiency alleviates pulmonary hypertension via inducing inflammasome adaptor ASC inactivation
Pulmonary hypertension is a progressive fatal disease that currently has no specific therapeutic approaches. In this study, dsRNA‐dependent protein kinase (PKR) was considered a candidate molecule in pulmonary hypertension.

Caspase-1 engagement and TLR-induced c-FLIP expression suppress ASC/caspase-8-dependent apoptosis by inflammasome sensors NLRP1b and NLRC4 [PDF]
The caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD)-based inflammasome sensors NLRP1b and NLRC4 induce caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis independent of the inflammasome adaptor ASC.

Nucleotide sequence of ovine interleukin-1 beta
The interleukins have been the subject of intense research interest because of their central role in the coordination of the processes of immune cell growth and differentiation, inflammation and responses to antigenic stimulation. Central to an understanding of these processes has been the cloning of the genes encoding these mediators. We have used PCR
