Chemokines in cancer related inflammation.
Chemokines are key players of the cancer-related inflammation. Chemokine ligands and receptors are downstream of genetic events that cause neoplastic transformation and are abundantly expressed in chronic inflammatory conditions which predispose to cancer. Components of the chemokine system affect multiple pathways of tumor progression including: leukocyte recruitment, neo-angiogenesis, tumor c...
متن کاملRole of chemokines in asthmatic airway inflammation.
The incidence of asthma worldwide has increased significantly over the past two decades, especially in young children and in inner cities. Although there are several contributing factors that promote severe asthmatic responses, uncontrolled inflammation leads to the most severe consequences. Chemokines are an interesting target for decreasing the inflammatory response and therefore altering the...
متن کاملInflammation, a Key Factor in Cancer Ambush
Inflammatory condition is the consequence of defensive mechanism of immune system against viral and bacterial infection, tissue injury, UV radiation, stress and etc. Persistently acute inflammation leads to chronic phase which is characterized by production of pro-inflammatory mediators from T cells. These molecules (e.g. IL-6, TNF-&alpha, IL-1&beta and IL-17) are mostly pleiotropic cytokines i...
متن کاملTargeting the chemokines in myocardial inflammation.
The chemokines comprise a large family of small, highly basic proteins that play a critical role in basal and inflammatory leukocyte locomotion and trafficking.1,2 In addition to effects on cell locomotion, certain chemokines are capable of eliciting a variety of other responses affecting leukocyte adhesion, activation, and degranulation, mitogenesis, and apoptosis. Furthermore, chemokines have...
متن کاملChemokines in liver inflammation and fibrosis.
Chemokines may be involved in the tissue response to injury regulating the influx of leukocytes, and modulating a number of other critical biologic actions, including angiogenesis, neoplastic growth, myo-fibroblast activation, and the response to viral infections. In the liver, up-regulated expression of different members of the chemokine system may be induced by almost all types of injury, and...
