Interleukin-8 plays a significant role in IgE-mediated lung inflammation.
Interleukin (IL)-8 is a potentially important cytokine in allergic respiratory responses since it is released by many resident lung cells, and it is a potent granulocyte chemoattractant. Therefore, we induced an immunoglobulin (Ig)E-mediated response in human lung samples and studied whether IL-8 was produced in sufficient quantities to promote human neutrophil and eosinophil migration across n...
متن کاملShp2 plays an important role in acute cigarette smoke-mediated lung inflammation.
Cigarette smoke (CS), the major cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, contains a variety of oxidative components that were implicated in the regulation of Src homology domain 2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (Shp2) activity. However, the contribution of Shp2 enzyme to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease pathogenesis remains unclear. We investigated the role of Shp2 enzyme...
متن کاملSurface wettability plays a significant role in gecko adhesion underwater.
Although we now have thousands of studies focused on the nano-, micro-, and whole-animal mechanics of gecko adhesion on clean, dry substrates, we know relatively little about the effects of water on gecko adhesion. For many gecko species, however, rainfall frequently wets the natural surfaces they navigate. In an effort to begin closing this gap, we tested the adhesion of geckos on submerged su...
متن کاملInterleukin-5 modulates interleukin-8 secretion in eosinophilic inflammation.
Serum and BALF (bronchoalveolar lavage fluid) IL-8 levels and serum levels were investigated in Toxocara canis infected guinea-pigs and the role of IL-5 as a modulator of cytokine secretion was studied. Serum levels increased early in infected animals, exceeding control levels 4 h after infection, peaked between days 6 and 18, and continued to exceed control levels after 48 days of infection. S...
متن کاملEssential involvement of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in acute inflammation.
Neutrophil infiltration into inflammatory sites is one of the hallmarks of acute inflammation. Locally produced chemotactic factors are presumed to mediate the sequence of events leading to the infiltration at inflammatory sites. Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a novel leukocyte chemotactic activating cytokine (chemokine), is produced by various types of cells upon stimulation with inflammatory stimuli a...
