Analysis of inflammatory cytokine and TLR expression levels in Type 2 Diabetes with complications

Scientific Reports, 2017
The pathogenesis and complications of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are closely linked with defective glucose metabolism, obesity, cardiovascular disease and an inability to mount an effective immune response to certain pathogenic organisms.

Loss of proton‐sensing GPR4 reduces tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) is a pH‐sensing receptor activated by acidic pH. GPR4 expression is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer. In mouse models, loss of GPR4 attenuated tumor progression. This correlated with increased IL2 and natural killer cell activity.

Beneficial Effects of Gosha-jinki-gan and Green Tea Extract in Rats With Chemical Cystitis

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
The aim of this study was to characterize pharmacological effects of gosha-jinki-gan (GJG) and green tea extract (GTE), on urodynamic parameters, bladder receptors, and urinary cytokines in rats with cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis.

Proinflammatory cytokine production by adherent donor blood cells stimulated by soluble LPS and phagocyted bacteria

Инфекция и иммунитет
Specific stimulation of receptors of the innate immune system by their purified ligands is commonly used in basic studies of inflammation and in the development of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Five layers of receptor signalling in γδ T cell differentiation and activation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
The contributions of gamma-delta T cells to immunity to infection or tumours critically depend on their activation and differentiation into effectors capable of secreting cytokines and killing infected or transformed cells.

CINs of the cytoplasm: dissecting dsRNA signaling in chromosomal instability

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Micronuclei, formed during cell division in chromosomal instability settings, rupture and lead to the accumulation of immunogenic double‐stranded RNA in the cytoplasm, activating MAVS‐dependent interferon signaling and innate antitumor immunity.

Immunogenic cell death triggered by pathogen ligands via host germ line-encoded receptors [PDF]

arXiv
The strategic induction of cell death serves as a crucial immune defense mechanism for the eradication of pathogenic infections within host cells. Investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying immunogenic cell pathways has significantly enhanced our understanding of the host's immunity.

Systematic profiling of cancer‐fibroblast interactions reveals drug combinations in ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Fibroblasts, cells in the tumor environment, support ovarian cancer cell growth and alter morphology and drug response. We used fibroblast and cancer cell co‐culture models to test 528 drugs and discovered new drugs for combination treatment. We showed that adding Vorinostat or Birinapant to standard chemotherapy may improve drug response, suggesting ...

High mTOR activity is a hallmark of reactive natural killer cells and amplifies early signaling through activating receptors

eLife, 2017
NK cell education is the process through which chronic engagement of inhibitory NK cell receptors by self MHC-I molecules preserves cellular responsiveness. The molecular mechanisms responsible for NK cell education remain unclear.
