Characterization of Endocannabinoid System and Interleukin Profiles in Ovine AEC: Cannabinoid Receptors Type-1 and Type-2 as Key Effectors of Pro-Inflammatory Response

open access: yesCells, 2020
Amniotic epithelial cells (AEC) have been proposed as promising clinical candidates for regenerative medicine therapies due to their immunomodulatory capacity.

Permethrin induced arterial retention of native and oxidized LDL in rats by promoting inflammation, oxidative stress and affecting LDL receptors, and collagen genes

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
This study is the first to examine the possible mechanism by which long-term exposure to permethrin (PER) can promote arterial retention of proatherogenic lipid and lipoproteins and related vascular dysfunction in rats.

Interleukin-2 Receptor Positive Cells and Circulating Soluble Interleukin-2 Receptors in Patients with Solid Tumors are not Correlated

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 1989
Activated lymphocytes can release a soluble form of IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R), which retains the capacity to bind IL-2. Abnormally high values of sIL-2R have been observed in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Toll-Interleukin 1 Receptor Domain-Containing Adaptor Protein 180L Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Is Associated With Susceptibility to Recurrent Pneumococcal Lower Respiratory Tract Infections in Children

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are often caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) and can be recurrent in 8% of children older than 2 years of age.

Characterization of signalling cross-talk between the EP2 and FP receptors in endometrial epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that arise from the smooth-muscle uterine cells (myometrium) and are the most common uterine disorder occurring in as many as 30% of women over 35 years of age. Despite their frequent occurrence, the etiology of uterine

P2X receptors: epithelial ion channels and regulators of salt and water transport. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
When the results from electrophysiological studies of renal epithelial cells are combined with data from in vivo tubule microperfusion experiments and immunohistochemical surveys of the nephron, the accumulated evidence suggests that ATP-gated ion ...

Structure-function relationships for the interleukin 2 receptor system

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
Receptors for interleukin 2 (IL-2) esit in at least three forms which differ in their subunit compositio, their affinity for ligand and their ability to mediate a cellular reponse.

Killer-Cell Inhibitory Receptors, CD158a/b, are Upregulated by Interleukin-2, but not Interferon-γ or Interleukin-4

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1999
Although it is now accepted that killer-cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs), which were molecularly cloned in 1995, deliver negative signals to natural killer (NK) cells regarding the recognition of target cells, it is still unclear how the expression of ...

Targeted Activation of T Cells with IL-2-Coupled Nanoparticles

open access: yesCells, 2020
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a T cell growth factor particularly required in regulatory T cell maintenance and memory T cell responses. High-dose IL-2 treatment was the first FDA-approved immunotherapy for cancer, while low-dose IL-2 administration has shown ...

The Interleukin 2 Receptor

open access: yesAnnual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 1988
Publisher Summary Although it was assumed initially that the various activities found in conditioned media were solely produced by lymphocytes, this idea was broadened subsequently to allow for activities that are produced by nonlymphoid cells, and the term cytokine is now sometimes used.
