Human Interferon-γ–inducible Protein 10 (IP-10) Inhibits Constitutive Signaling of Kaposi's Sarcoma–associated Herpesvirus G Protein–coupled Receptor
A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) is encoded within the genome of Kaposi's sarcoma- associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8, a virus that may be involved in the pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma and primary effusion lymphomas. KSHV-GPCR exhibits constitutive signaling activity that causes oncogenic transformation. We report that human interferon (IFN)-gamma-inducible protein 10 (HuIP...
متن کاملHuman trophectoderm apposition is regulated by interferon γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10) during early implantation.
INTRODUCTION The first step in human implantation is the attraction of the blastocyst to the endometrium. We aimed to study attraction of the human blastocyst to the endometrium, and how this process is accomplished by chemokines secreted by the endometrium. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blastocyst trophectoderm cells and other trophoblast lineage cells were subjected to attraction assays by IP-10 an...
متن کاملSecretion of biologically active interferon-gamma inducible protein-10 (IP-10) by Lactococcus lactis
BACKGROUND Chemokines are a large group of chemotactic cytokines that regulate and direct migration of leukocytes, activate inflammatory responses, and are involved in many other functions including regulation of tumor development. Interferon-gamma inducible-protein-10 (IP-10) is a member of the C-X-C subfamily of the chemokine family of cytokines. IP-10 specifically chemoattracts activated T l...
متن کاملRole of Interferon-γ-Inducible Protein (IP)-10/ (IP-10/CXCL10) in Ulcerative Colitis; A Review of the Present Status
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affecting the colonic mucosa; it is of unknown etiology (Baumgart & Carding, 2007). UC clinically displays bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss, and often leads to a severe outcome since the therapeutic approaches, including corticosteroid and 5-aminosalicylic acid, are not always successful in inducing ...
متن کاملElevated Levels of Interferon-inducible Protein-10 (IP)-10/CXCL10, but not of Interferon-γ, in Patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Mycobacterial strains are potent inducers of cytokines/chemokines by mononuclear phagocytes, which constitute an important cellular component of the first line of defense in the innate immune system. Interferon (IFN)-γ-inducible protein (IP-10 or CXCL10) is a potent chemoattractant; however, little is known about the IP-10 profiles attributable to the Th1 regulation associated with active tuber...
