GENETIC ASPECTS OF PANNICULITIS IN A RUSSIAN POPULATION: A PILOT STUDY

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология, 2016
Numerous  clinical observations show that the human genetic background plays an important  role in predisposition to many diseases.Objective: to investigate a possible relationship of the polymorphisms in 19 A/G leptin (LEP) gene, in the interleukin (IL)-

Biological role of interleukin 1 receptor antagonist isoforms [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2000
The interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL1Ra) family of molecules now includes one secreted isoform (sIL1Ra) and three intracellular isoforms (icIL1Ra1, 2, and 3). Extensive evidence indicates that the sole biological function of sIL1Ra seems to be to competitively inhibit IL1 binding to cell-surface receptors.

Interleukin-1 polymorphisms associated with increased risk of gastric cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with a variety of clinical outcomes including gastric cancer and duodenal ulcer disease. The reasons for this variation are not clear, but the gastric physiological response is influenced by the severity and ...

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.

Full-length and N-terminally truncated recombinant interleukin-38 variants are similarly inefficient in antagonizing interleukin-36 and interleukin-1 receptors

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling
Background Interleukin (IL)-38 is an IL-1 family cytokine that was proposed to exert anti-inflammatory effects. However, its mechanisms of action are not well understood and the identity of the IL-38 receptor(s) remains debated.

Interleukin Gene Marker for Febrile Seizures

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 2002
The use of polymorphisms for interleukin IB (IL-1B) exon 5 and interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) as markers of susceptibility to febrile seizures was evaluated in Taiwanese children (group 1: 51 with febrile convulsions and group 2: 83 normal ...

Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (anakinra) for Schnitzler syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Treatment, 2016
Schnitzler syndrome is a rare autoinflammatory disease, which is defined by the presence of two major criteria: chronic urticaria and monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM) or immunoglobulin G gammopathy, in combination with at least two additional minor criteria: recurrent fever, leukocytosis and/or elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), objective signs of ...

Biologic treatments in rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A number of biological approaches to the management of inflammtory arthropathies have been explored. These include the development of IL-1 receptor antagonists and TNF antagonists. Four biological agents are currently marketed in Europe.

Novel anti-tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) domain antibody prevents pulmonary inflammation in experimental acute lung injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine with both injurious and protective functions, which are thought to diverge at the level of its two cell surface receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve
