The role of PAF in immunopathology: From immediate hypersensitivity reactions to fungal defense

BioFactors, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1217-1225, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Platelet‐activating factor (PAF, 1‐alkyl‐2‐acetyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphorylcholine) was discovered when the mechanisms involved in the deposition of immune complex in tissues were being scrutinized in the experimental model of rabbit serum sickness.

Functional Polarization of Liver Macrophages by Glyco Gold Nanoparticles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Macrophages play a critical role in several pathophysiological diseases by being involved in the activation of adaptive and innate immune responses. The repolarization of macrophages using gold nanoparticles functionalized with glycans for a more selective targeting toward a restorative phenotype leads to an amelioration of the events.

Carp Il10 Has Anti-Inflammatory Activities on Phagocytes, Promotes Proliferation of Memory T Cells, and Regulates B Cell Differentiation and Antibody Secretion

Journal of Immunology, 2015
In the current study, we investigated the effects of carp Il10 on phagocytes and lymphocytes. Carp Il10 shares several prototypical inhibitory activities on phagocytes with mammalian IL-10, including deactivation of neutrophils and macrophages, as shown ...

Advances in Nano‐Immunomodulatory Systems for the Treatment of Acute Kidney Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Based on the biodegradability and the immunological reactiveness, IMNs can be broadly classified into four categories. The first category includes types of biologically derived materials that cause immunomodulatory action and biodegradability like nanoparticles of cell membranes, extracellular vesicles, and exosomes.
