Lymphotoxin β receptor signaling promotes development of autoimmune pancreatitis.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Little is known about the pathogenic mechanisms of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), an increasingly recognized, immune-mediated form of chronic pancreatitis. Current treatment options are limited and disease relapse is frequent. We investigated factors that contribute to the development of AIP and new therapeutic strategies. METHODS We used quantitative polymerase chain reacti...
متن کاملLymphotoxin β receptor activation promotes bladder cancer in a nuclear factor-κB-dependent manner
Bladder cancer (BCa) is the most common tumor of the urinary system. Chronic inflammation in the papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP)may contribute to carcinogenesis, including that of BCa, via poorly understood mechanisms. In this study, we show that the lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR) is upregulated in BCa via activation of the canonical and non-canonical nuclear fa...
متن کاملA Critical Role for Lymphotoxin-β Receptor in the Development of Diabetes in Nonobese Diabetic Mice
To assess the role of lymphotoxin-beta receptor (LTbetaR) in diabetes pathogenesis, we expressed an LTbetaR-Fc fusion protein in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice. The fusion protein was expressed in the embryo, reached high levels for the first 2 wk after birth, and then declined progressively with age. High expression of LTbetaR-Fc blocked diabetes development but not insulitis. After the decline ...
متن کاملβ-Adrenergic Receptor Signaling in Prostate Cancer
Enhanced sympathetic signaling, often associated with obesity and chronic stress, is increasingly acknowledged as a contributor to cancer aggressiveness. In prostate cancer, intact sympathetic nerves are critical for tumor formation, and sympathectomy induces apoptosis and blocks tumor growth. Perineural invasion, involving enrichment of intra-prostatic nerves, is frequently observed in prostat...
متن کاملLymphotoxin β receptor signaling promotes tertiary lymphoid organogenesis in the aorta adventitia of aged ApoE−/− mice
Atherosclerosis involves a macrophage-rich inflammation in the aortic intima. It is increasingly recognized that this intimal inflammation is paralleled over time by a distinct inflammatory reaction in adjacent adventitia. Though cross talk between the coordinated inflammatory foci in the intima and the adventitia seems implicit, the mechanism(s) underlying their communication is unclear. Here,...
