Acknowledgement of manuscript reviewers the underappreciated contributors
We and the Editorial Board sincerely acknowledge and thank all the reviewers for their active participation and contribution during 2014 (Volume 11). We greatly appreciate their dedication and behind the scenes contribution. It is largely due to their support and expertise that we have been able to publish high standard manuscripts. We would also like to thank authors for choosing Nutrition & M...
متن کامل1,25D3 prevents CD8+Tc2 skewing and asthma development through VDR binding changes to the Cyp11a1 promoter
Effector CD8(+) T cells convert from IFN-γ(+) (Tc1) to IL-13(+) (Tc2) cells in the presence of IL-4. Underlying regulatory mechanisms are not fully defined. Here, we show that addition of 1,25D3, the active form of vitamin D3, during CD8(+) T-cell differentiation prevents IL-4-induced conversion to IL-13-producers. Transfer of 1,25D3-treated CD8(+) T cells into sensitized and challenged CD8(+)-...
متن کاملAsthma death, CD8+ T cells, and viruses.
Despite advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology of asthma and the availability of effective treatment, the World Health Organization estimates that asthma accounts for 1 in every 250 deaths worldwide. Viruses are associated with half of all asthma exacerbations. The immune response to viral infection may enhance preexisting airway inflammation via the release of chemokines and cyto...
متن کاملNon-host-reactive donor CD8+ T cells of Tc2 phenotype potently inhibit marrow graft rejection.
Donor CD8+ T cells capable of host reactivity inhibit marrow graft rejection, but also generate graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). To evaluate whether the Tc1- and Tc2-type subsets of CD8 cells might inhibit rejection without host reactivity, we established an F1 into-parent murine bone marrow transplant model. Donor Tc1 and Tc2 cells were generated that preferentially secreted type I or type II...
متن کاملMast Cells: Key Contributors to Cardiac Fibrosis
Historically, increased numbers of mast cells have been associated with fibrosis in numerous cardiac pathologies, implicating mast cells in the development of cardiac fibrosis. Subsequently, several approaches have been utilised to demonstrate a causal role for mast cells in animal models of cardiac fibrosis including mast cell stabilising compounds, rodents deficient in mast cells, and inhibit...
