Differential effects of age on chicken heterophil functional activation by recombinant chicken interleukin-2

open access: yes, 2002
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) exercises an array of biological effects on many cells including the functional activation of cells of the innate immune response.

Polyene macrolide antifungal drugs trigger interleukin-1β secretion by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The use of antimycotic drugs in fungal infections is based on the concept that they suppress fungal growth by a direct killing effect. However, amphotericin and nystatin have been reported to also trigger interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion in monocytes but

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Interleukin‐17 sensitizes joint nociceptors to mechanical stimuli and contributes to arthritic pain through neuronal interleukin‐17 receptors in rodents [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis & Rheumatism, 2012
AbstractObjectiveInterleukin‐17 (IL‐17) is considered a proinflammatory cytokine, but whether neuronal IL‐17 receptors contribute to the generation of arthritic pain is unknown. This study was undertaken to explore whether IL‐17A acts on neurons, whether it sensitizes joint nociceptors, and whether neutralization of IL‐17 is antinociceptive.MethodsWe ...

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Differential Expression of IFN-γ, IL-10, TLR1, and TLR2 and Their Potential Effects on Downgrading Leprosy Reaction and Erythema Nodosum Leprosum

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2019
Leprosy reactions are acute immunological events that occur during the evolution of chronic infectious disease causing neural damage and disabilities.

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors

open access: yes, 2012
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
