Disruption of Type I Interferon Induction by HIV Infection of T Cells
Our main objective of this study was to determine how Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) avoids induction of the antiviral Type I Interferon (IFN) system. To limit viral infection, the innate immune system produces important antiviral cytokines such as the IFN. IFN set up a critical roadblock to virus infection by limiting further replication of a virus. Usually, IFN production is induced by th...
متن کاملType I interferon is required for T helper (Th) 2 induction by dendritic cells
Type 2 inflammation is a defining feature of infection with parasitic worms (helminths), as well as being responsible for widespread suffering in allergies. However, the precise mechanisms involved in T helper (Th) 2 polarization by dendritic cells (DCs) are currently unclear. We have identified a previously unrecognized role for type I IFN (IFN-I) in enabling this process. An IFN-I signature w...
متن کاملNumerical solution of a fractional order model of HIV infection of CD4+T cells.
In this paper we consider a fractional order model of HIV infection of CD4+T cells and we transform this fractional order system of ordinary differential equations to a system of weakly singular integral equations. Afterwards we propose a Nystrom method for solving resulting system, convergence result and order of convergence is obtained by using conditions of existence and uniqueness of solut...
متن کاملI-11: Dedifferentiation of Mouse Fibroblast Cells by Chemical Induction
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generated by ectopic expression of four transcription factors have great promises for regenerative medicine in humans. Since the initial report of iPSCs by viral transfection, ample efforts have been made in the generation of iPSCs through nonviral approaches. Small molecules offer the advantages of low cost without genomic modification and have been used ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Beta Interferon on Dendritic Cells and Cytokine Synthesis by CD4+ T Cells
Background: Dendritic cells (DC) are a key regulator of the immune response, and interferon- beta (IFN-β) is considered an immunomodulatory molecule for DC. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of IFN-β treated DC to induce cytokine secretion by CD4+ T cells. Methods: Dendritic cells were generated from blood monocytes with granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating fac...
