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 ...

IL-27 suppresses Th2 cell development and Th2 cytokines production from polarized Th2 cells: a novel therapeutic way for Th2-mediated allergic inflammation. [PDF]
Abstract IL-27 up-regulates Th1 but down-regulates Th2 responses. However, its molecular mechanism and regulatory effects on polarized Th2 cells remain unclear. In this study, we have revealed that IL-27 inhibits Th2 cell development as well as Th2 cytokines production from already polarized Th2 cells by down-regulation of GATA-3 and ...

The relative involvement of Th1 and Th2 associated immune responses in the expulsion of a primary infection of Heligmosomoides polygyrus in mice of differing response phenotype. [PDF]
T helper cell (Th1 and Th2) associated responses were examined following a primary infection with the gastrointestinal nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus in five inbred strains of mice with different resistance phenotypes.

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

Role of IL-25 in Immunity [PDF]
IL-25 a 2o KDa protein mostly known as IL-17E, encoded by chromosome 14, and containing 117 amino acids. Cytokine IL-17 family consists of 6 members; IL-17A to IL-17F, among which IL-25 has a unique structure and function. The receptor of IL-25 (IL-17BR)

A Sting in the Tale of Th2 Immunity [PDF]
Allergies are widely considered misguided Th2 cell responses. In this issue, Palm et al. (2013) and Marichal et al. (2013) show that mice mount anti-venom Th2 cell responses that share components of the "allergic" response but confer protection.

Doxycycline for the treatment of breast cancer-related lymphedema
Purpose: Secondary lymphedema is a common complication of cancer treatment for which no effective drug treatments yet exist. Level I clinical data suggests that doxycycline is effective for treating filariasis-induced lymphedema, in which it decreases ...

Th2 Cytokines and Atopic Dermatitis [PDF]
Atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic relapsing inflammatory skin disease, is increasing in prevalence around the world. Intensive research is ongoing to understand the mechanisms involved in the development of AD and offer new treatment options for patients suffering from AD.
