Mature tau pathology is not improved by interfering with interleukin-1 receptor signaling in two mouse models of tauopathy.

PLoS ONE
Prior work suggests that the cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β) may be a key regulator of tau pathology in the presence of amyloidosis. Here, we tested the possible benefits of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) gene therapy in two mouse models of ...

The Chemokine CCL2 Mediates the Seizure-enhancing Effects of Systemic Inflammation [PDF]

, 2016
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures. Brain inflammation is increasingly recognized as a critical factor for seizure precipitation, but the molecular mediators of such proconvulsant effects are only partly ...

A method to induce Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist Protein from autologous whole blood

Cytokine, 2016
Current orthopedic therapies, aimed solely at symptomatic control, are unable to restore the cytokine imbalance that produces the hallmark clinical profile of osteoarthritis. While a myriad of chemical factors in the cytokine network stimulate local joint inflammation and pain, Interleukin 1 (IL-1) is widely recognized as a key offender and a potential

Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist, Interleukin-6, and C-Reactive Protein as Predictors of Mortality in Nonagenarians: The Vitality 90+ Study [PDF]

The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 2007
Inflammation plays a major role in both aging and chronic disease. Longitudinal studies in very old people can improve our understanding of these processes. We investigated blood levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), and their combinations as predictors of mortality in nonagenarians.This ...

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Anti-interleukin-1 treatment among patients with familial Mediterranean fever resistant to colchicine treatment. Retrospective analysis

São Paulo Medical Journal, 2019
BACKGROUND: Up to 5% of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) cases are unresponsive to colchicine, through resistance, side effects and toxicity. Anakinra is an alternative treatment for FMF patients whose disease remains uncontrolled with colchicine.

Gene polymorphisms in primary biliary cirrhosis: association with the disease and hepatic osteopathy [PDF]

, 2007
Genetic factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, a common disorder in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). Estrogen receptor-alpha gene (ER- ), vitamin-D-receptor gene (VDR) and IL-1-receptor-antagonist gene (IL-1RN) are all ...

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
