Mediators 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 ...

Human basophils express interleukin-4 receptors [PDF]
Blood, 1990 Abstract Interleukin-4 (IL-4), a multipotential lymphokine reputed to play an important role in the regulation of immune responses, interacts with a variety of hemopoietic target cells through specific cell surface membrane receptors. The present study was designed to investigate whether human basophils express IL-4 binding sites.

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]
, 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 ...

Interleukin-4 receptor regulation in human monocytic cells [PDF]
Blood, 1994 The regulation of the interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R) was studied at mRNA and protein level in monocytic cells on stimulation with activators of different intracellular signaling pathways and IL-4. Activation of protein kinase C-dependent pathways with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or activation of protein kinase A-dependent pathways with DBcAMP and ...

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

Stoichiometry of the complex of human interleukin‐4 with its receptor [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1994 A large number of cytokines have been shown to possess a four‐helix bundle structure with a unique up‐up‐down‐down connectivity. The receptors for this family of cytokines have been shown to be homologous as well, each possessing two tandem repeats of a fibronectin type III‐like domain. The crystal structure of human growth hormone bound to the soluble
