IL-22-Producing RORγt-Dependent Innate Lymphoid Cells Play a Novel Protective Role in Murine Acute Hepatitis
Retinoid-related orphan receptor (ROR) γt is known to be related to the development and function of various immunological compartments in the liver, such as Th17 cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). We evaluated the roles of RORγt-expressing cells in mouse acute hepatitis model using RORγt deficient (RORγt(-/-)) mice and RAG-2 and RORγt double deficient (RAG-2(...
متن کاملRorγt+ innate lymphocytes and γδ T cells initiate psoriasiform plaque formation in mice.
Psoriasis is a common, relapsing inflammatory skin disease characterized by erythematous scaly plaques. Histological manifestations of psoriasis include keratinocyte dysregulation and hyperproliferation, elongated rete ridges, and inflammatory infiltrates consisting of T cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. Despite the availability of new effective drugs to treat psoriasis, the...
متن کاملImmune-stimulating complexes induce an IL-12-dependent cascade of innate immune responses.
The development of subunit vaccines requires the use of adjuvants that act by stimulating components of the innate immune response. Immune-stimulating complexes (ISCOMS) containing the saponin adjuvant Quil A are potential vaccine vectors that induce a wide range of Ag-specific responses in vivo encompassing both humoral and CD4 and CD8 cell-mediated immune responses. ISCOMS are active by both ...
متن کاملMembers of the immunoglobulin superfamily in bacteria.
We report a prediction that two prokaryotic proteins contain immunoglobulin superfamily domains. Immunoglobulin-like folds have been identified previously in prokaryotic proteins, but these share no recognizable sequence similarity with eukaryotic immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) folds, and may be the result of the physics and chemistry of proteins favoring certain common folds. In contrast, t...
متن کاملRole of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Controlling Maintenance and Functional Programs of RORγt+ Innate Lymphoid Cells and Intraepithelial Lymphocytes
Mucosal retinoic receptor-related orphan receptor (ROR)γt-expressing innate lymphoid cells (ILC) play an important role in the defense against intestinal pathogens and in promoting epithelial homeostasis and adaptation, thereby effectively protecting the vertebrate host against intestinal inflammatory disorders. The functional activity of RORγt(+) ILC is under the control of environmental cues....
