Cytokine Involvement in Inflammatory Immune Disorders
Cytokines, small molecules with potent biological activity, are primarily synthesized by immune and non-immune cells (e.g., vascular endothelial cells, epidermal cells, fibroblasts) in response to stimulation. These signaling molecules form intricate networks that contribute to immune responses, inflammatory reactions, cell proliferation, and growth. Cytokine Dysregulation in Systemic Immune ...

Epidermal growth factor-like domain repeat of stabilin-2 recognizes phosphatidylserine during cell corpse clearance
Exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) on the cell surface occurs early during apoptosis and serves as a recognition signal for phagocytes. Clearance of apoptotic cells by a membrane PS receptor is one of the critical anti-inflammatory functions of macrophages. However, the PS binding receptors and their recognition mechanisms have not been fully investigated. Recently, we reported that stabilin-2 ...

Inflammation, Immunity and Cancer
Relationship Between Immunity, Inflammation and Cancer Immunity is an act of self-protection of the body. The immune response is divided into specific and non-specific. The antigen and antibody responses are generally referred to as specific immune responses, which require the participation of B cells and T cells. Other immune cells such as macrophages and NK cells mediate non-specific immune ...

Saving Us from Ourselves: Harnessing the Power of CAR-T to Combat Autoimmunity
What is autoimmune disease? Autoimmune disease a condition in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the body itself. Thus far, more than 80 different autoimmune diseases have been identified, with some of the most prevalent including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes, and multiple sclerosis [1]. Autoimmune disease is one of the top ten causes of ...

Laser Application in Periodontics
The use of lasers for periodontal treatment has become more complicated because the periodontium consists of both hard and soft tissues. Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy Dental plaque is known as the principal etiologic factor for the inflammatory periodontal disease; therefore, it is evident that treatment of the disease is dependent upon how much the plaque and its retentive factors are ...

Gamma delta T cells in tumor immunotherapy
Immunotherapy, in addition to surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, has now become the fourth pillar of anticancer treatment, with T cell-based immunotherapy being a successful cancer treatment technique. T cells can be separated into two subpopulations based on the expression of T-cell receptors (TCRs). αβ T cells, expressing expressing αβ TCR, recognize peptide antigens, such as those ...

Autoimmune Diseases Targets
Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a multifunctional cytokine that acts on various cell types, including dendritic cells, T cells, B cells, neutrophils, mast cells, eosinophils, and innate lymphoid cells, affecting their maturation, survival, and recruitment. It is well-known for its role in promoting type 2 immune responses, such as allergic diseases. In 2021, a monoclonal antibody targeting ...

CADM: A New Generation of Tumor Suppressor Genes
About Tumor Suppressor Genes A tumor suppressor gene, also known as anti-onco gene, is an essential component of the body's defense against cancer. It usually facilitates apoptosis. With its absence, the human body will be functioning without its “brake” of cell proliferation. Cells are potent to go under abnormal growth processes and finally lead to tumor/cancer. Here are some key ...

Roseburia spp. Abundance Associates with Alcohol Consumption in Humans and Its Administration Ameliorates Alcoholic Fatty Liver in Mice
Highlights The depletion of Roseburia is associated with alcohol consumption in human cohorts R. intestinalis ameliorates the experimental ALD in mice regardless of viability Flagellin from R. intestinalis protects on ethanol-disrupted gut barrier functions The ethanol-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis is restored by R. intestinalis Summary Although a link between the gut microbiota ...

Inflammatory Cytokines Profile
Cytokines are classified according to their different roles in the inflammatory response: pro-inflammatory cytokines and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Pro-inflammatory Cytokines Interleukin-1 (IL-1) IL-1 is a proinflammatory cytokine that activates a variety of immune and inflammatory cells and is secreted mainly by monocytes/macrophages, neutrophils and endothelial cells. IL-1 consists of two ...

In Silico Development of Combinatorial Therapeutic Approaches Targeting Key Signaling Pathways in Metabolic Syndrome
Purpose Dysregulations of key signaling pathways in metabolic syndrome are multifactorial, eventually leading to cardiovascular events. Hyperglycemia in conjunction with dyslipidemia induces insulin resistance and provokes release of proinflammatory cytokines resulting in chronic inflammation, accelerated lipid peroxidation with further development of atherosclerotic alterations and diabetes. We ...
