IL-21 Receptor Expression in Human Tendinopathy
The pathogenetic mechanisms underlying tendinopathy remain unclear, with much debate as to whether inflammation or degradation has the prominent role. Increasing evidence points toward an early inflammatory infiltrate and associated inflammatory cytokine production in human and animal models of tendon disease. The IL-21/IL-21R axis is a proinflammatory cytokine complex that has been associated ...
متن کاملIL-21 and IL-21 Receptor Expression in Lymphocytes and Neurons in Multiple Sclerosis Brain
IL-17-producing CD4(+) T cells (Th-17) contribute to the pathogenesis of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and are associated with active disease in multiple sclerosis (MS). In addition to IL-17, Th-17 cells can also express IL-21, IL-22, and IL-6 under Th-17-polarizing conditions (IL-6 and transforming growth factor-β). In this study we investigated IL-21 and IL-21 receptor (IL-21R) ex...
متن کاملUpregulated IL-21 and IL-21 receptor expression is involved in experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU)
PURPOSE Interleukin (IL)-21 has recently been shown to play a vital role in the development of many autoimmune diseases. Our study is designed to investigate the alteration and possible function of IL-21 in the development of an experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) model. METHODS EAU was induced in B10.RIII mice by subcutaneous injection of interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) ...
متن کاملIL 21 R ( interleukin 21 receptor )
The IL21R gene is comprised of 9 exons (+2 alternative first exons), spanning 48.4kb on chromosome 16p11 (Parrish-Novak, 2000). The human IL21R promoter region, contained within nucleotides -789 to +195 (relative to the start of exon 1a) induces the high levels of transcription in reporter assays (Ueda, 2002). A critical SP1 binding site is contained in the region from -80 to -20 and is essenti...
متن کاملRegulation of gene expression in human tendinopathy
BACKGROUND Chronic tendon injuries, also known as tendinopathies, are common among professional and recreational athletes. These injuries result in a significant amount of morbidity and health care expenditure, yet little is known about the molecular mechanisms leading to tendinopathy. METHODS We have used histological evaluation and molecular profiling to determine gene expression changes in...
