Elevated serum L-selectin levels and decreased L-selectin expression on CD8+ lymphocytes in systemic sclerosis [PDF]
SUMMARYL-selectin is expressed on most circulating leucocytes and mediates leucocyte rolling on endothelium at sites of inflammation. Following rolling or activation of leucocytes, cell surface L-selectin is released as soluble L-selectin (sL-selectin).

Leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels and lung injury following systemic complement activation in rabbits [PDF]
Inflammatory reactions are associated with sequestration of leukocytes in the lung. Complement activation leads to accumulation of leukocytes in alveolar septa and alveoli, to lung edema and hemorrhage.

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Lymphoid priming in human bone marrow begins before expression of CD10 with upregulation of L-selectin. [PDF]
Expression of the cell-surface antigen CD10 has long been used to define the lymphoid commitment of human cells. Here we report a unique lymphoid-primed population in human bone marrow that was generated from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) before onset ...

ABSTRACT Quantifying oral polymorphonuclear neutrophils (oPMNs) is a clinically validated approach for assessing periodontal inflammation. However, current methods, such as manual hemocytometry and flow cytometry, are time‐consuming (>3 h), require invasive sampling, and depend on staining and complex instrumentation, making them unsuitable for point ...

Ectodomain shedding of the amyloid precursor protein: Cellular control mechanisms and novel modifiers [PDF]
Proteolytic cleavage in the ectodomain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key regulatory step in the generation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid-beta (A beta) pepticle and occurs through two different protease activities termed alpha- and beta-

L-selectin — a signalling receptor for lipopolysaccharide
The activation of leukocytes by bacterial cell-wall lipopolysaccharide contributes to the pathogenesis of septic shock. We propose that in neutrophils, and possibly other leukocytes, L-selectin can act as a low-affinity lipopolysaccharide receptor.

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Interrelationship of Multiple Endothelial Dysfunction Biomarkers with Chronic Kidney Disease. [PDF]
The interrelationship of multiple endothelial biomarkers and chronic kidney disease (CKD) has not been well studied. We measured asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), L-arginine, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular ...
