Temporal and tissue-specific requirements for T-lymphocyte IL-6 signalling in obesity-associated inflammation and insulin resistance

Nature Communications, 2017
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is increased in obesity and activates T cells to promote inflammation. Here, Xuet al. use mice that lack IL-6 receptors on T cells to uncover the temporal and tissue-specific effects of classic and trans IL-6 signalling on ...

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

Academic 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 ...

Truncated Chicken Interleukin-1β with Increased Biologic Activity [PDF]

, 2003
Chicken interleukin-1β (ChIL-1β) is synthesized as a precursor molecule that unlike its mammalian counterpart, lacks a typical caspase-1 cleavage site. Therefore, it was unclear if proteolytic cleavage of ChIL-1β can occur and if cleavage might modulate ...

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

Hematology, 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).

Signal transduction of Interleukin-11 and Interleukin-6 ?-Receptors [PDF]

, 2016
The cytokines Interleukin (IL)-11 and IL-6 are important mediators that regulate differentiation and proliferation of immune cells. Both cytokines bind to unique non-signaling ?-receptors (IL-11R and IL-6R, respectively), and the resulting cytokine ...

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

Physiological 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 ...

Nanometer-scale organization of the alpha subunits of the receptors for IL2 and IL15 in human T lymphoma cells [PDF]

, 2008
Interleukin 2 and interleukin 15 (IL2 and IL15, respectively) provide quite distinct contributions to T-cell-mediated immunity, despite having similar receptor composition and signaling machinery.

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

Journal 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.

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

PLoS 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.

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 ...
