Receptor Epitope Usage by an Interleukin-5 Mimetic Peptide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
The cyclic peptide AF17121 is a library-derived antagonist for human interleukin-5 (IL5) receptor alpha (IL5Ralpha) and inhibits IL5 activity. Our previous results have demonstrated that the sixth arginine residue of the peptide is crucial for the inhibitory effect and that several acidic residues in the N- and C-terminal regions also make a ...

Characterization of high-affinity receptors for interleukin 5 on interleukin 5-dependent cell lines. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1989
Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is a glycosylated polypeptide that acts as a key factor for B-cell growth and differentiation. We demonstrated previously that there are two classes (high and low affinity) of IL-5 receptors on murine chronic B-cell leukemic cells (BCL1-B20).

A potent dimeric peptide antagonist of interleukin-5 that binds two interleukin-5 receptor α chains [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2000
Two series of peptides that specifically bind to the extracellular domain of the α chain of the human interleukin-5 receptor (IL-5Rα), but share no primary sequence homology to IL-5, were identified from libraries of random recombinant peptides. Affinity maturation procedures generated a 19-aa peptide that binds to the IL-5 receptor α/β heterodimer ...

Suppression of interleukin-1 beta and LDL scavenger receptor expression in macrophages by a selective protein kinase C inhibitor.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1991
A human monocytic cell line, THP-1, stimulated with 40 nM phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), differentiated to macrophage-like cells, and exhibited increased expression and release of interleukin-1 beta and expression of acetylated low density lipoprotein (

A computational analysis of transcriptional profiles from CD8(+) T lymphocytes reveals potential mechanisms of HIV/AIDS control and progression

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Cytotoxic and noncytotoxic CD8+ T lymphocyte responses are essential for the control of HIV infection. Understanding the mechanisms underlying HIV control in elite controllers (ECs), which maintain undetectable viral load in the absence of antiretroviral

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.

Nicotinamide inhibits melanoma in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2020
Background Even though new therapies are available against melanoma, novel approaches are needed to overcome resistance and high-toxicity issues. In the present study the anti-melanoma activity of Nicotinamide (NAM), the amide form of Niacin, was ...

Novel Biological Therapies for Severe Asthma Endotypes

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Severe asthma comprises several heterogeneous phenotypes, underpinned by complex pathomechanisms known as endotypes. The latter are driven by intercellular networks mediated by molecular components which can be targeted by specific monoclonal antibodies.

Involvement of p59fynT in interleukin-5 receptor signaling. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of experimental medicine, 1995
Previous studies implicate the nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) p59fyn in the propagation of signals from the B cell antigen receptor. To elucidate the functions of this kinase, we examined B cell responsiveness in mice engineered to lack the hematopoietic isoform of p59fyn. Remarkably, antigen receptor signaling was only modestly defective in
