Helminth Infections: Recognition and Modulation of the Immune Response by Innate Immune Cells [PDF]
The survival of helminths in the host over long periods of time is the result of a process of adaptation or dynamic co-evolution between the host and the parasite. However, infection with helminth parasites causes damage to the host tissues producing the

Th1/Th2 in aspergillosis [PDF]
The outcome of the Th1/Th2 balance is a critical determinant of the outcome in invasive aspergillosis. The innate immune system encounters the pathogen first. Dendritic cells (DC) appear to be the critical fulcrum at the intersection of the innate immune system, and which receptors are engaged, particularly which Toll-like receptors are triggered by ...

CD4 T-cell subsets in Malaria: TH1/TH2 revisited
CD4+ T cells have been shown to play a central role in immune control of infection with Plasmodium parasites. At the erythrocytic stage of infection, IFN-γ production by CD4+ T cells and CD4+ T-cell help for the B-cell response are required for control ...

Lymphocyte subsets and the role of Th1/Th2 balance in stressed chronic pain patients [PDF]
Background: The complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) and fibromyalgia (FM) are chronic pain syndromes occurring in highly stressed individuals. Despite the known connection between the nervous system and immune cells, information on distribution of ...

We have demonstrated that cardiac fibrosis arises from the differentiation of monocyte-derived fibroblasts. We present here evidence that this process requires sequential Th1 and Th2 induction promoting analogous M1 (classically activated) and M2 ...

A transcriptome-driven analysis of epithelial brushings and bronchial biopsies to define asthma phenotypes in U-BIOPRED [PDF]
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Asthma is a heterogeneous disease driven by diverse immunologic and inflammatory mechanisms. We used transcriptomic profiling of airway tissues to help define asthma phenotypes. METHODS: The transcriptome from bronchial biopsies

Beyond CCR7: dendritic cell migration in type 2 inflammation
Conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are crucial antigen-presenting cells that initiate and regulate T cell responses, thereby shaping immunity against pathogens, innocuous antigens, tumors, and self-antigens. The migration of cDCs from peripheral tissues

Enhancement of OVA-induced murine lung eosinophilia by co-exposure to contamination levels of LPS in Asian sand dust and heated dust. [PDF]
BackgroundA previous study has shown that the aggravation of Asian sand dust (ASD) on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced lung eosinphilia was more severe in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-rich ASD than in SiO2-rich ASD.
