متن کاملFibrogenesis: Mechanisms, Dynamics and Clinical Implications
Fibrosis is the pathological condition resulting in the growth of excess fibrous connective tissue in an organ or body system as a reparative or reactive process. In the field of clinical pathology, clinicians and medical scientists are endeavoring to translate experimental knowledge into effective, innovative treatments for a range of fibrotic conditions. The amelioration of whole organ functi...
متن کاملAnandamide induces apoptosis in human endothelial cells: its regulation system and clinical implications.
Anandamide (AEA), an endogenous cannabinoid, is generated by macrophages during shock conditions, and is thought to be a causative mediator of septic shock. Thus, we hypothesized that AEA plays a crucial role in endothelial cell (EC) injury. Here, we demonstrate that AEA induces apoptosis in a time-and dose-dependent manner in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). AEA triggered phosp...
متن کاملRegulation of granulocyte apoptosis and implications for anti-inflammatory therapy.
The elimination of unwanted cells is now regarded as an essential component of many normal biological programmes. These include embryonic remodelling, the removal of autoreactive thymic T cells, and the disposal of senescent enterocytes at the villus tip. Hence cell death, in particular apoptosis or " programmed cell death " , appears to be a prerequisite for life. 1 In the particular example o...
متن کاملEndometriosis: hormone regulation and clinical consequences of chemotaxis and apoptosis.
BACKGROUND The recruitment of immune cells by chemokines and the regulation of endometrial cell apoptosis are critical aspects of endometriosis biology. Here, we review the local (paracrine) and systemic hormone (endocrine) modulation of these two specific, but highly related phenomena. METHODS We searched Pubmed for items published in English between September 1991 and September 2011 and sel...
