Soluble ST2 Blocks Interleukin-33 Signaling in Allergic Airway Inflammation [PDF]
The ST2 gene produces a soluble secreted form and a transmembrane form, referred to as soluble ST2 and ST2L, respectively. A recent study has reported that interleukin (IL)-33 is a specific ligand of ST2L and induces production of T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines. Although soluble ST2 is highly produced in sera of asthmatic patients and plays a critical

Toll/Interleukin-1 receptor member ST2 exhibits higher soluble levels in type 2 diabetes, especially when accompanied with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction [PDF]
Background Soluble ST2, a member of the of the Toll/IL-1 superfamily, is a novel biomarker with exceptional predictive value in heart failure and myocardial infarction- related mortality as well as in acute dyspneic states.

ST2 in patients with severe aortic stenosis and heart failure
BACKGROUND: ST2 is a circulating biomarker that is well established for predicting outcome in heart failure (HF). This is the first study to look at ST2 concentrations in optimally treated patients with stable but significant left ventricular systolic ...

Background: The predictive value of serum soluble ST2 (sST2) biomarker for diagnostics of cardiovascular pathologies is still poorly understood as well as the role of psychological stress on the risk of heart disease. Aim: This study aimed at determining the diagnostic significance of the sST2 level in athletes involved in speed-strength sports.

Performance Evaluation of AFIAS ST2 and Ichroma ST2 Assays in Comparison with Presage ST2 Assay
Background: Elevated soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) levels may predict mortality in heart failure (HF) patients. The AFIAS ST2 assay (AFIAS ST2, Boditech Med Inc., Chuncheon, Korea) and ichroma ST2 assay (ichroma ST2, Boditech Med Inc ...

Pulmonary Production of Soluble ST2 in Heart Failure [PDF]
Background: Serum concentrations of ST2 (interleukin-1 receptor-like 1) represent a meaningful prognostic marker in cardiac diseases. Production of soluble ST2 (sST2) may be partially extracardiac. Identification of sST2 sources is relevant to design strategies for modulating its signaling.

Soluble ST2 predicts elevated SBP in the community [PDF]
Soluble ST2 (sST2) is an emerging prognostic biomarker in patients with existing cardiovascular disease. ST2 and its ligand, interleukin-33 (IL-33), are expressed in endothelial cells, and may play an important role in the development of early atherosclerosis and vascular biology.

Role of the IL-33/ST2/p38 signaling pathway in the immune response of corneal epithelial cells to Aspergillus fumigatus infection [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the expression of interleukin (IL)-33 in the cornea and human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) exposed to Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus), and to determine the function of IL-33/ST2/p38 signaling pathway in the immune response of
