Activated macrophages promote Wnt signalling through tumour necrosis factor-α in gastric tumour cells
The activation of Wnt/beta-catenin signalling has an important function in gastrointestinal tumorigenesis. It has been suggested that the promotion of Wnt/beta-catenin activity beyond the threshold is important for carcinogenesis. We herein investigated the role of macrophages in the promotion of Wnt/beta-catenin activity in gastric tumorigenesis. We found beta-catenin nuclear accumulation in m...
متن کاملTumour-associated macrophages secrete pleiotrophin to promote PTPRZ1 signalling in glioblastoma stem cells for tumour growth
Intense infiltration of tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) facilitates malignant growth of glioblastoma (GBM), but the underlying mechanisms remain undefined. Herein, we report that TAMs secrete abundant pleiotrophin (PTN) to stimulate glioma stem cells (GSCs) through its receptor PTPRZ1 thus promoting GBM malignant growth through PTN-PTPRZ1 paracrine signalling. PTN expression correlates wit...
متن کاملTumour necrosis factor-α in nasal allergy
Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) by radio-immunoassay to evaluate TNF-alpha in nasal allergy. There was no significant difference either between the mean concentrations of TNF-alpha in nasal secretions from the patients with perennial nasal allergy and those of normal subjects, or between the TNF-alp...
متن کاملAnti-Tumour Necrosis Factor-α Therapy in Crohn’s Disease
Crohn’s disease is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory disease of the gastro-intestinal tract. Manifestations of the disease may be severe, and lead to long-term therapy with a variety of medications and/or surgery. There are two main classifications of the disease, including the relapsing-remitting chronic active variety, and the penetrating or fistulising variety. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha ...
متن کاملCirculating tumour necrosis factor α and soluble tumour necrosis factor receptors in patients with different patterns of rheumatoid synovitis
Objective: To examine the relation between the serum levels of tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα), soluble tumour necrosis factor receptors (sTNF-R), and the histological pattern of rheumatoid synovitis. Methods: An enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure TNFα, p55 sTNF-R, and p75 sTNF-R concentrations in the serum of 43 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and 34 patients...
