Endogenously produced hydrogen sulfide supports tumor cell growth and proliferation
Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is an endogenous gaseous biological mediator. In the cardiovascular system, it acts as a vasodilator, proangiogenic hormone, and cardioprotectant, while in the nervous system, it functions as a neurotransmitter and neuroprotectant. Our interest in the role of H 2 S in cancer biology was initially triggered by our observations in endothelial cells showing that the proang...
متن کاملRegulation of T-cell function by endogenously produced angiotensin II.
The adaptive immune response and, in particular, T cells have been shown to be important in the genesis of hypertension. In the present study, we sought to determine how the interplay between ANG II, NADPH oxidase, and reactive oxygen species modulates T cell activation and ultimately causes hypertension. We determined that T cells express angiotensinogen, the angiotensin I-converting enzyme, a...

متن کاملCognate antigen engagement on parenchymal cells stimulates CD8+ T cell proliferation in situ
T-cell responses are initiated upon cognate presentation by professional antigen presenting cells in lymphoid tissue. T cells then migrate to inflamed tissues, but further T-cell stimulation in these parenchymal target sites is not well understood. Here we show that T-cell expansion within inflamed tissues is a distinct phase that is neither a classical primary nor classical secondary response....
متن کاملCD1d-restricted NKT cell activation enhanced homeostatic proliferation of CD8+ T cells in a manner dependent on IL-4.
CD1d-restricted NKT cells are activated by TCR-mediated stimulation via CD1d plus lipid antigens such as alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer). These cells suppressed autoimmunity and graft rejection, but sometimes enhanced resistance to infection and tumor immunity. This double-action phenomenon of NKT cells is partly explained by cytokines produced by NKT cells. Therefore, roles of cytokine...
