A receptor for interleukin 10 is related to interferon receptors. [PDF]
We isolated cDNAs encoding a mouse interleukin 10 receptor (mIL-10R) from mouse mast cell and macrophage cell lines. The two cDNAs are substantially identical and express an approximately 110-kDa polypeptide in COS7 cells, which binds mIL-10 specifically.

Nanometer-scale organization of the alpha subunits of the receptors for IL2 and IL15 in human T lymphoma cells [PDF]
Interleukin 2 and interleukin 15 (IL2 and IL15, respectively) provide quite distinct contributions to T-cell-mediated immunity, despite having similar receptor composition and signaling machinery.

Differences in innate cytokine responses between European and African children. [PDF]
Although differences in immunological responses between populations have been found in terms of vaccine efficacy, immune responses to infections and prevalence of chronic inflammatory diseases, the mechanisms responsible for these differences are not ...

Vaccinia virus protein A46R targets multiple Toll-like-interleukin-1 receptor adaptors and contributes to virulence [PDF]
Viral immune evasion strategies target key aspects of the host antiviral response. Recently, it has been recognized that Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have a role in innate defense against viruses.

The Orphan Receptor CRF2-4 Is an Essential Subunit of the Interleukin 10 Receptor [PDF]
The orphan receptor CRF2-4 is a member of the class II cytokine receptor family (CRF2), which includes the interferon receptors, the interleukin (IL) 10 receptor, and tissue factor. CRFB4, the gene encoding CRF2-4, is located within a gene cluster on human chromosome 21 that comprises three interferon receptor subunits. To elucidate the role of CRF2-4,

Prevention of arthritis by interleukin 10-producing B cells [PDF]
In this study we have shown that activation of arthritogenic splenocytes with antigen and agonistic anti-CD40 gives raise to a B cell population that produce high levels of interleukin (IL)-10 and low levels of interferon (IFN)-{gamma}. Transfer of these

Sympathetic Nervous System Catecholamines and Neuropeptide Y Neurotransmitters Are Upregulated in Human NAFLD and Modulate the Fibrogenic Function of Hepatic Stellate Cells [PDF]
Background Sympathetic nervous system (SNS) signalling regulates murine hepatic fibrogenesis through effects on hepatic stellate cells (HSC), and obesity-related hypertension with SNS activation accelerates progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver ...

Relevance of Fcγ Receptor and Interleukin‐10 Polymorphisms for Meningococcal Disease [PDF]
The contribution of individual Fcgamma receptor (FcgammaR) subclasses to meningococcal phagocytosis was studied. In addition, functional FcgammaR polymorphisms were determined in 50 patients with meningococcal disease (MD), in 183 first-degree relatives of MD patients, and in 239 healthy control subjects, to study the association of FcgammaR genotypes ...
