Does native Trypanosoma cruzi calreticulin mediate growth inhibition of a mammary tumor during infection? [PDF]
Indexación: Web of Science.Background: For several decades now an antagonism between Trypanosoma cruzi infection and tumor development has been detected. The molecular basis of this phenomenon remained basically unknown until our proposal that T.

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.

Lipoprotein receptor interactions are not required for monocyte oxidation of LDL.
Upon activation, human peripheral blood monocytes and U937 cells oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL), converting it to a cytotoxin. The oxidized LDL loses its ability to interact specifically with the native LDL (apoB/E) receptor and becomes a ligand ...

Scavenger receptors in human airway epithelial cells: role in response to double-stranded RNA.
Scavenger receptors and Toll-like receptors (TLRs) cooperate in response to danger signals to adjust the host immune response. The TLR3 agonist double stranded (ds)RNA is an efficient activator of innate signalling in bronchial epithelial cells.

The hepatoadrenal syndrome: A common yet unrecognized clinical condition [PDF]
Objective: Adrenal failure is common in critically ill patients, particularly those with sepsis. As liver failure and sepsis are both associated with increased circulating levels of endotoxin and proinflammatory mediators and reduced levels of apoprotein-

Defective expression of scavenger receptors in celiac disease mucosa. [PDF]
Celiac disease (CD) is a gluten sensitive enteropathy characterized by a marked infiltration of the mucosa with immune cells, over-production of inflammatory cytokines and epithelial cell damage.

Innate scavenger receptor-A regulates adaptive T helper cell responses to pathogen infection
Scavenger receptors can function as pattern recognition receptors to sense infection. Here the authors show that, in response to worm and bacterial infection, scavenger receptor class A prevents nuclear localization of IRF5 and thereby drives M2 ...
