Impact of IL -9 and IL-33 in mast cells.
Cytokines serve as chemical communicators from one cell to another and most of them have pro-inflammatory activity. Mast cells have been recognised as important mediators of the pathogenesis of allergy and inflammation, suggesting a role for IL-33-mediated mast cell activation. IL-33 was recently identified as a ligand for the orphan IL-1 family receptor T1/ST2 and is mainly expressed by mast c...
متن کاملNotch regulates IL-10 production by T helper 1 cells.
T helper 1 (Th1) cells mediate powerful cellular immune responses. However, if unbalanced, Th1 immunity eventually may cause pathology. Recently, it has been shown that IL-10, an antiinflammatory cytokine strongly antagonizing Th1-mediated effects, can be produced by Th1 cells and is indeed essential for self-regulation of Th1 immunity. Here, we show that Notch induces IL-10 production in newly...
متن کاملCytokines (IL-17, IL-23, and IL-33) in Systemic lupus erythematosus in Trinidad and Tobago.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most common autoimmune disease. It is characterized by the presence of hundreds of autoantibodies against many organs and tissues, including the presence of a large number of autoantibodies, which are specific to self-antigens mainly of nuclear origin such as Smith antigen, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), anti-Sjögren’s syndrome-related antigen A and B (SS...
متن کاملSTCP-1 (MDC) CC chemokine acts specifically on chronically activated Th2 lymphocytes and is produced by monocytes on stimulation with Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13.
STCP-1 stimulated T cell chemoattractant protein-1 (STCP-1) (macrophage-derived chemokine; MDC), a recently described CC chemokine for chronically activated T lymphocytes, was found to act specifically on a subset of memory CD4 lymphocytes that displayed a Th2 cytokine profile. Also, STCP-1, thymus and activation regulated chemokine (TARC), eotaxin, and eotaxin-2 acted specifically on in vitro ...
متن کاملRegulation of T cell-dependent and -independent IL-12 production by the three Th2-type cytokines IL-10, IL-6, and IL-4.
The production of IL-12 by macrophages/dendritic cells (Mphi/DC) is mediated either by a T cell-dependent pathway that is induced primarily by the interaction of CD40 ligand (CD40L) on activated T cells with CD40 on IL-12-producing cells or by a T cell-independent pathway that is induced by bacteria or bacterial products and enhanced by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). In this study we investigate...
