The Effects of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines on Human Body and Their Relation with Diseases (Review Article)

open access: yesAcademic Science Journal, 2023
Cytokines are important mediators in inflammatory disorders that affect the entire body. Signaling molecules called pro-inflammatory cytokines, also known as inflammatory cytokines, are released by the immune system cells including macrophages and T ...

Crohn's disease: Th1, Th17 or both? The change of a paradigm: new immunological and genetic insights implicate Th17 cells in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Traditionally, Crohn's disease has been associated with a Th1 cytokine profile, while Th2 cytokines are modulators of ulcerative colitis. This concept has been challenged by the description of tolerising regulatory T cells (Treg) and by proinflammatory ...

Soluble interleukin‐6 receptor in young adults and its relationship with body composition and autonomic nervous system

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
Background The immune system generates inflammatory responses through cytokines like Interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and the Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF α); these cytokines mediate cellular responses aided by the presence of soluble receptors such as: Soluble ...

Contribution of Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase to UTP-Induced Interleukin-6 Biosynthesis in HaCaT Keratinocytes

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
UTP causes interleukin (IL)-6 production via mRNA expression through P2Y2/P2Y4 receptors in human HaCaT keratinocytes. In the present study, we analyzed the mechanism of UTP-induced IL-6 production in these cells.

Role of Soluble Interleukin-6 Receptor With Interleukin-6 in Human Hematopoiesis

open access: yesHematology, 1997
A complex of soluble interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and interleukin-6 has been shown to play some roles in human hematopoiesis. It activates gp130 signal to stimulate human erythroid, megakaryocytic and primitive hematopoietic progenitor cells, which express gp130 but not IL-6R, in the presence of c-Kit signal mediated by stem cell factor (SCF).

Autocrine Regulation of UVA-Induced IL-6 Production via Release of ATP and Activation of P2Y Receptors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Extracellular nucleotides, such as ATP, are released from cells in response to various stimuli and act as intercellular signaling molecules through activation of P2 receptors.

Chicken Toll-like Receptor 3 Recognizes Its Cognate Ligand When Ectopically Expressed in Human Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Recognition of pathogens by toll-like receptors (TLRs) causes activation of signaling cascades that trigger cytokine secretion and, ultimately, innate immunity.

Post-ischaemic immunological response in the brain: targeting microglia in ischaemic stroke therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Microglia, the major endogenous immune cells of the central nervous system, mediate critical degenerative and regenerative responses in ischaemic stroke.

Morphine Attenuates Apically-Directed Cytokine Secretion from Intestinal Epithelial Cells in Response to Enteric Pathogens

open access: yesPathogens, 2014
Epithelial cells represent the first line of host immune defense at mucosal surfaces. Although opioids appear to increase host susceptibility to infection, no studies have examined opioid effects on epithelial immune functions.

Effector Functions of Natural Killer Cell Subsets in the Control of Hematological Malignancies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Treatment of hematological malignant disorders has been improved over the last years, but high relapse rate mainly attributable to the presence of minimal residual disease still persists.
