Innate Immune Activation Is a Strong Suppressor of CCL22 and Impedes Regulatory T Cell–Dendritic Cell Interaction

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...

Phage Therapy: Targeting the Gut Microbiota for the Treatment of Acute Pancreatitis

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common clinical inflammatory condition whose severity is closely associated with both local pancreatic injury and systemic complications. Research indicates that gut microbiota dysbiosis and subsequent bacterial translocation can exacerbate disease progression via the gut–pancreas axis, representing a critical ...

Neutralization of IFN-γ reverts clinical and laboratory features in a mouse model of macrophage activation syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is not clearly understood: a large body of evidence supports the involvement of mechanisms similar to those implicated in the setting of primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis ...

IL‐15 Plus Thymosin α1 Reduces Senescent Hepatic CD8+ T Cells in Hepatocellular Carcinoma via PI3K/AKT Suppression

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
Combined IL‐15 and thymosin α1 therapy reverses CD8+ T cell senescence in hepatocellular carcinoma via a “supply and boost” strategy. Tα1 restores thymic naïve T cell output, while IL‐15 enhances peripheral effector function. Mechanistically, this combination suppresses overactivated PI3K/AKT signaling, restoring antitumor immunity and prolonging ...

Stem Cells From Dental Pulp, Periodontal Tissues, and Other Oral Sources: Biological Concepts and Regenerative Potential

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A graphical abstract recapping the different sources of dental, periodontal, and other oral‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their regenerative mechanisms and potentials. The review's article findings bridge fundamental biological science with translational advances, highlighting the significance of MSCs in craniofacial regenerative ...

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.

Correlation between TLR9 Expression and Cytokine Secretion in the Clinical Diagnosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2015
To investigate the correlation between TLR9 and cytokine secretion in SLE diagnosis and treatment. A total of 66 cases (39 SLE and 27 healthy donors) were enrolled in this study. The CD20+ labeled B cells were isolated from SLE patients.

TLR9 Turns the Tide on Treg Cells [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2008
In this issue of Immunity, Hall et al. (2008) demonstrate that commensal bacterial DNA can suppress Treg cell conversion via TLR9-mediated activation of lamina propria dendritic cells and thus potentially disrupt intestinal homeostasis.

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.
