Long‐term echocardiographic findings in patients with idiopathic recurrent pericarditis treated with anakinra

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Idiopathic recurrent pericarditis (IRP) is considered an autoinflammatory disease, and interleukin 1 inhibitors, such as anakinra, are used to treat resistant cases. Constrictive pericarditis, a feared complication, continues to be a critical concern. In the biologic era, evidence on long‐term transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) findings

NOD2 gene mutations in ulcerative colitis: useless or misunderstood? [PDF]

, 2014
PURPOSE: NOD2 mutations have been linked to an increased risk of Crohn's disease and to some of its phenotypes. The association between NOD2 mutations and susceptibility to ulcerative colitis (UC) remains somewhat controversial and potential ...

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

NOD2 Suppresses Colorectal Tumorigenesis via Downregulation of the TLR Pathways

Cell Reports, 2017
Although NOD2 is the major inflammatory bowel disease susceptibility gene, its role in colorectal tumorigenesis is poorly defined. Here, we show that Nod2-deficient mice are highly susceptible to experimental colorectal tumorigenesis independent of gut ...

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

NOD2 Deficiency Protects against Cardiac Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction in Mice

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2013
Background/Aims: Although the pathogenesis of myocardial infarction (MI) is multifactorial, activation of innate immune system to induce inflammation has emerged as a key pathophysiological process in MI.

Role of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signalling pathway in sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (SA‐AKI) is a common clinical syndrome in critically ill patients, and its high mortality rate is closely related to complex pathological mechanisms. Existing studies have shown that the pathophysiological process of SA‐AKI involves complex multi‐mechanism interactions, including an uncontrolled systemic ...

Induction of Nod2 in Myelomonocytic and Intestinal Epithelial Cells via Nuclear Factor-kB Activation [PDF]

, 2002
Nod2, a member of the Apaf1/Nod protein family, confers responsiveness to bacterial products and activates NF-kB, a ranscription factor that plays a central role in innate immunity.

Autoimmune and autoinflammatory mechanisms in uveitis [PDF]

, 2014
The eye, as currently viewed, is neither immunologically ignorant nor sequestered from the systemic environment. The eye utilises distinct immunoregulatory mechanisms to preserve tissue and cellular function in the face of immune-mediated insult ...
