Impact of the Placental Cytokine-Chemokine Balance on Regulation of Cell-Cell Contact-Induced Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Translocation across a Trophoblastic Barrier In Vitro
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-10)
Cells constituting the placental barrier secrete soluble factors that may participate in controlling human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmission from the mother to the fetus. In this study, we asked whether ...
Innate-immunity cytokines induced by very small size proteoliposomes, a Neisseria-derived immunological adjuvant
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-02)
Neisserial outer membrane proteins have been combined with monosialoganglioside GM3 to form very small size proteoliposomes (VSSP), a nanoparticulated formulation used as a cancer vaccine for the treatment of cancer patients ...
Effect of Panax ginseng on cytokine expression in bovine mammary glands at drying off
(Elsevier Science, 2010-12)
Biological response modifiers (BRM) are agents that modify the host's response to pathogens with resultant beneficial prophylactic or therapeutic effects. The objectives of this study were to describe the immunomodulatory ...
Milk fermented by Lactobacillus casei CRL431 modifies cytokine profiles associated to different stages of breast cancer development in mice
(Wageningen Academic Publishers, 2019-07)
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. It is recognised that immune system influences its promotion, progression, and metastasis, as well as their responsiveness to therapies. Previously, it was ...
Lactobacillus casei addition to a repletion diet-induced early normalisation of cytokine profils during a pneumococcal infection in malnourished mice
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008-09)
This work studied the influence of Lactobacillus casei on cytokine production during repletion of malnourished mice in the face of an infectious challenge. In addition, the number and function of cells involved in the ...
Galectin 3 induces a distinctive pattern of cytokine and chemokine production in rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts via selective signaling pathways
(Wiley, 2009-05)
High expression of galectin 3 at sites of joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) suggests that galectin 3 plays a role in RA pathogenesis. Previous studies have demonstrated the effects of galectins on immune cells, ...
PD-L1 expression is induced on cytokine-stimulated human NK cells and contributes to IFN-γ production
(Sociedad Argentina de Inmunología, 2019)
Natural Killer (NK) cells are critical effectors against tumor and virus-infected cells, and their activity is modulated by multiple inhibitory and activating receptors and cytokines. Tumor-experienced NK cells express ...
Cytokines as therapeutic targets in primary Sjögren syndrome
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-04-19)
Primary Sjögren syndrome (SjS) is a systemic autoimmune disease that may affect 1 in 1000 people (overwhelmingly women) and that can be a serious disease with excess mortality due to severe organ-specific involvements and ...
The implication of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the impaired production of gonadal androgens by patients with pulmonary tuberculosis
(Churchill Livingstone, 2015-12)
Background: The chronic nature of tuberculosis and the protracted immuno-inflammatory reactions are implied in a series of metabolic and immune-endocrine changes accompanying the disease. We explored components from the ...
Evaluation of cytokines as adjuvants of infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis vaccines
(Elsevier Science, 2012-01)
In this work two cytokines were used in combination with inactivated bacteria (bacterin) to test the bovine conjuctival immune response to the pathogen Moraxella bovis, the causative agent of Infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis ...
