Leptin May Promote Eosinophilic CRSwNP Progression by Enhancing Eosinophil Chemotaxis and Angiogenesis Under a Type 2 Inflammatory Milieu

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyp (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous Type 2 inflammatory disease characterized by enhanced eosinophilic infiltration. Both innate and adaptive immunity are involved in the onset and progression of CRSwNP.

Mast cell chemotaxis – Chemoattractants and signaling pathways

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Migration of mast cells is essential for their recruitment within target tissues where they play an important role in innate and adaptive immune responses. These processes rely on the ability of mast cells to recognize appropriate chemotactic stimuli and

Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing Informs Precision Targeting of Monogenic Lupus Associated With IKZF1 Haploinsufficiency

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms of immune dysregulation in a pediatric patient with monogenic lupus driven by IKZF1 haploinsufficiency. Methods Peripheral immune cells from a patient with IKZF1 haploinsufficiency, patients with lupus with no currently known genetic mutations, and healthy controls were analyzed using single‐cell

Deletion of parasite immune modulatory sequences combined with immune activating signals enhances vaccine mediated protection against filarial nematodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Background: Filarial nematodes are tissue-dwelling parasites that can be killed by Th2-driven immune effectors, but that have evolved to withstand immune attack and establish chronic infections by suppressing host immunity. As a consequence, the

Navigating adverse immunostimulation: A practical guide for clinical researchers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Problem Setting As drug development moves towards more complex products, early clinical development programmes are increasingly hampered by unwanted and/or unexpected activation of the immune system (adverse immune stimulation, AIS). Solution At the Centre for Human Drug Research, we have introduced standardized procedures to make AIS manageable, while

The interplay between molecular architecture, pharmacology, and suspected adverse drug reactions associated with nonsteroidal androgen antagonists in the United Kingdom

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This work aimed to correlate potential links between the suspected adverse drug reaction (ADR) profile of licensed nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonists (NSARA) with their unique chemical properties and known off‐target polypharmacology. Methods Physicochemical and polypharmacology data were curated from the Electronic Medicines Compendium ...

Characterization of CD123 expression by mast cells in systemic mastocytosis with multicolor flow cytometry

open access: yesCytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a clonal mast cell (MC) disorder characterized by aberrant immunophenotypes, including expression of CD25, CD2, and occasionally CD30. CD123, the α‐subunit of the interleukin‐3 receptor, is a therapeutic target in hematologic malignancies and has been reported to be expressed on neoplastic MCs by ...

Molecular Cloning and Immunochemical Characterization of a New Japanese Cedar Pollen Allergen Homologous to Plant Subtilisin-Like Serine Protease

open access: yesWorld Allergy Organization Journal, 2010
Protease activities in allergen sources are thought to be involved in triggering allergic inflammation through the disruption of epithelial barrier or the induction of proinflammatory cytokines.
