Specific Involvement of G Proteins in Regulation of Serum Response Factor-mediated Gene Transcription by Different Receptors [PDF]
Regulation of serum response factor (SRF)-mediated gene transcription by G protein subunits and G protein-coupled receptors was investigated in transfected NIH3T3 cells and in a cell line that was derived from mice lacking G_(αq) and G_(α11).

Interleukin 12 (IL12B), interleukin 12 receptor (IL12RB1) and interleukin 23 (IL23A) gene polymorphism in systemic lupus erythematosus [PDF]
The aim of this study was to assess the possible association between the interleukin-12B (IL12B) and interleukin-12 receptor beta 1 (IL12RB1) gene polymorphisms with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). In addition, we have undertaken a systematic search for genetic variants of interleukin 23 (IL23A).The study was conducted on 559 SLE patients and 603 ...

Virus-Like Particle-Mediated Vaccination against Interleukin-13 May Harbour General Anti-Allergic Potential beyond Atopic Dermatitis [PDF]
Virus-like particle (VLP)-based anti-infective prophylactic vaccination has been established in clinical use. Although validated in proof-of-concept clinical trials in humans, no VLP-based therapeutic vaccination against self-proteins to modulate chronic

Selective Suppression of Interleukin-12 Induction after Macrophage Receptor Ligation [PDF]
Interleukin (IL)-12 is a monocyte- and macrophage-derived cytokine that plays a crucial role in both the innate and the acquired immune response. In this study, we examined the effects that ligating specific macrophage receptors had on the induction of IL-12 by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

Toll-like receptor signaling in vertebrates: Testing the integration of protein, complex, and pathway data in the Protein Ontology framework [PDF]
The Protein Ontology (PRO) provides terms for and supports annotation of species-specific protein complexes in an ontology framework that relates them both to their components and to species-independent families of complexes.

Interleukin-12 Receptor β1 Deficiency Presenting as Recurrent Salmonella Infection [PDF]
We describe a child with interleukin-12 receptor beta1 (IL-12Rbeta1) deficiency caused by a homozygous IL12RB1 large deletion who presented at the age of 1 year with recurrent, often asymptomatic episodes of bacteremia caused by group D Salmonella species. No mycobacterial disease or other unusual infection was present.
