Visualisation of tissue kallikrein, kininogen and kinin receptors in human skin following trauma and in dermal diseases [PDF]

, 2004
During dermal injury and inflammation the serine proteases kallikreins cleave endogenous, multifunctional substrates (kininogens) to form bradykinin and kallidin.

ASC filament formation serves as a signal amplification mechanism for inflammasomes [PDF]

, 2016
A hallmark of inflammasome activation is the ASC speck, a micrometre-sized structure formed by the inflammasome adaptor protein ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD), which consists of a pyrin domain (PYD) and a caspase ...

Concepts of GPCR-controlled navigation in the immune system

, 2019
G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling is essential for the spatiotemporal control of leukocyte dynamics during immune responses. For efficient navigation through mammalian tissues, most leukocyte types express more than one GPCR on their surface ...

A C3(H20) recycling pathway is a component of the intracellular complement system [PDF]

, 2017
An intracellular complement system (ICS) has recently been described in immune and nonimmune human cells. This system can be activated in a convertase-independent manner from intracellular stores of the complement component C3. The source of these stores

The proinflammatory activity of recombinant serum amyloid A is not shared by the endogenous protein in the circulation.

, 2010
OBJECTIVE: Elevated serum levels of the acute-phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA) are a marker for active rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and SAA can also be found in the tissues of patients with active RA.

Pertussis Toxin-sensitive Activation of Phospholipase C by the C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe Receptors [PDF]

, 1996
Signal transduction pathways that mediate C5a and fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced pertussis toxin (PTx)-sensitive activation of phospholipase C (PLC) have been investigated using a cotransfection assay system in COS-7 cells.

Circumventing antivector immunity: potential use of nonhuman adenoviral vectors [PDF]

, 2014
Adenoviruses are efficient gene delivery vectors based on their ability to transduce a wide variety of cell types and drive high-level transient transgene expression. While there have been advances in modifying human adenoviral (HAdV) vectors to increase

De-novo design of complementary (antisense) peptide mini-receptor inhibitor of interleukin 18 (IL-18).

, 2004
Complementary (antisense) peptide mini-receptor inhibitors are complementary peptides designed to be receptor-surrogates that act by binding to selected surface features of biologically important proteins thereby inhibiting protein-cognate receptor ...
