Destabilization of Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor 1 Reduces Cytokine Release and Protects Against Lung Injury

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (LPA1) is a druggable target for treating pulmonary inflammatory diseases. However, the molecular regulation of LPA1 stability, a factor that critically impacts its biological activity, remains largely unknown.

Interleukin-36 Cytokines in Infectious and Non-Infectious Lung Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The IL-36 family of cytokines were identified in the early 2000’s as a new subfamily of the IL-1 cytokine family, and since then, the role of IL-36 cytokines during various inflammatory processes has been characterized.

RING finger E3 ligase PPP1R11 regulates TLR2 signaling and innate immunity

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that recognizes many types of PAMPs that originate from gram-positive bacteria. Here we describe a novel mechanism regulating TLR2 protein expression and subsequent cytokine release through ...

The Human IL-22 Receptor Is Regulated through the Action of the Novel E3 Ligase Subunit FBXW12, Which Functions as an Epithelial Growth Suppressor

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2015
Interleukin- (IL-) 22 signaling is protective in animal models of pneumonia and bacteremia by Klebsiella pneumoniae and mediates tissue recovery from influenza and Staph aureus infection.

Phagocytosis is a primary determinant of pulmonary clearance of clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionKlebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a common cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia. Although previous studies have suggested that evasion of phagocytic uptake is a virulence determinant of Kp, few studies have examined phagocytosis sensitivity in ...

E3 Ligase Subunit Fbxo15 and PINK1 Kinase Regulate Cardiolipin Synthase 1 Stability and Mitochondrial Function in Pneumonia

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Summary: Acute lung injury (ALI) is linked to mitochondrial injury, resulting in impaired cellular oxygen utilization; however, it is unknown how these events are linked on the molecular level. Cardiolipin, a mitochondrial-specific lipid, is generated by

A fresh look at paralytics in the critically ill: real promise and real concern. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), or "paralytics," often are deployed in the sickest patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) when usual care fails.

Vaping-associated Lung Injury [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2019
Many cases related to vaping-associated lung injury have recently been reported to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). It is, therefore, important for clinicians to be aware of this disease. Here, we present the case of a 46-year-old female patient, who had recently started vaping.

protection by adrenomedullin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) contributes to morbidity and mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Particularly pre-injured lungs are susceptible to VILI despite protective ventilation. In a previous study, the endogenous peptide
