Human Th17 cells express high levels of enzymatically active dipeptidylpeptidase IV (CD26).
Dipeptidylpeptidase IV (CD26) is a multifunctional ectoenzyme involved in T cell activation that has been implicated in autoimmune pathophysiology. Because IL-17-producing CD4(+) T cells (Th17 cells) are important mediators of autoimmune disease, we analyzed the expression of CD26 and its enzymatic function on human Th17 cells. Analysis of CD26 expression on different CD4(+) T helper subsets sh...
متن کاملCD26/dipeptidylpeptidase IV-chemokine interactions: double-edged regulation of inflammation and tumor biology.
Post-translational modification of chemokines is an essential regulatory mechanism to enhance or dampen the inflammatory response. CD26/dipeptidylpeptidase IV, ubiquitously expressed in tissues and blood, removes NH2-terminal dipeptides from proteins with a penultimate Pro or Ala. A large number of human chemokines, including CXCL2, CXCL6, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, CXCL12, CCL3L1, CCL4, CCL5, CCL1...
متن کاملSkin homing of Sézary cells involves SDF-1-CXCR4 signaling and down-regulation of CD26/dipeptidylpeptidase IV.
Sézary syndrome (SS) is a rare form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) characterized by a distinct metastatic pattern mainly involving blood and skin. Chemokines and their receptors play a critical role in cellular recruitment and homing to tissues and in the metastatic process of several tumors including non-Hodgkin T-cell lymphomas (NHLs). Here we report that SS cells express a functionally ...
متن کاملGeneration of Recombinant , Enzymatically Active Human Thyroid
A full-length cDNA clone for human thyroid peroxidase (TPO) inserted into the mammalian cell expression vector pECE was stably transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Clones were assayed for human TPO mRNA, TPO protein, and TPO enzymatic activity. One subclone, expressing the highest TPO enzymatic activity, was used in further studies. FACS analysis of these cells preincubated in Ha...
متن کاملHuman Trophoblast Progenitor Cells Express and Release Angiogenic Factors
Trophoblast stem cells develop from polar trophoectoderm and give rise to the cells that generate the placenta. Trophoblast cells are responsible for the uterinal invasion and vascular remodeling during the implantation of the embryo. However this knowledge is not yet to be confirmed for trophoblast progenitor cells (TPCs). In this study, we aimed to demonstrate that human TPCs (hTPCs) express ...
