Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Gliflozin Therapy on TNF-α Secretion by Cultured Monocytes in Patients with DiabetesTatiana Vladimirovna Kirichenko, Leyla Azimovna Bochkareva et al.Currently it’s well established that chronic inflammation is a key pathogenetic mechanism in the development of Type 2 diabetes. The study aims to explore the inflammatory response of monocytes in diabetic patients compared to healthy subjects, focusing on TNF-α and to investigate the impact of SGLT2 inhibitors on monocyte inflammation. The study included 20 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 15 Feb 2024 · 4,825 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Polymorphisms at Heat Shock Protein 90 Gene by High Resolution Melting Assays for Potential Heat Tolerance among Nigerian Zebu Cattle BreedsGbolabo Onasanya, George Msalya, Aranganoor Thiruvenkadan et al.Heat Shock Protein (HSP) 90 gene is a member of HSPs sub-family that act as molecular chaperons whenever animals come under thermal stress. The genes fulfill essential roles of providing cellular protection, immune response, protein synthesis, protein folding and unfolding, protection from cellular stress, inhibitory apoptosis and adaptation. This study was designed to analyze polymorphisms of HSP 90 and to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2020 · 7,264 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,865 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAre we Able to Harness the Immunomodulatory Power of Cytokines for Novel Autoimmune Disease Treatments?Giuseppe Nocentini, Graziella Migliorati, Carlo RiccardiSince the end of the 1970s, interleukin 2 (IL-2) has been known as a key player in T cell expansion/activation (Watson et al., 1980). In the late 1980s, some groups used IL-2 to stimulate the immune systems of tumour patients (Jacobs et al., 1986). The idea seemed brilliant and several attempts were made, but the results were disappointing (Lim et … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 22 Oct 2015 · 7,629 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIgG Subclass Variation of a Monoclonal Antibody Binding to Human Fc-Gamma ReceptorsRekha Patel, Krista K. Johnson, Bruce A. Andrien, Paul P. TamburiniThe importance of human Fc receptors in immune regulation is well known. Their role is critical not only in the recruitment of cellular effector functions but also in regulating the balance in the periphery between autoimmunity and tolerance. Despite their central importance, there is a dearth of literature on controlled numeric comparisons in affinities of antibody subclasses for gamma receptors. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 8,070 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFoxp3-Mediated Immunity of Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line PANC-1Renxi Wang, Gencheng Han, Jianan Wang et al.Problem statement: More and more evidences have shown that human cancer cells can express Foxp3, the regulatory T cell-associated transcription factor. The role of Foxp3 in human cancer cells is still unclear. We detected Foxp3 expression in human pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1. SiRNA assays showed that Foxp3 expression suppressed the expression of TGF-β and IL-10 which could induce immune … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 11 Jan 2010 · 7,367 accessesView PDF Cite
