Monoclonal anti-interleukin-5 treatment suppresses eosinophil but not T-cell functions.
Influx of eosinophils in airway mucosa and airway lumen is a hallmark of bronchial asthma. In-vitro data and animal studies indicate that the T-helper (Th) type-2 cell cytokine, interleukin (IL)-5, plays an important role in eosinophil maturation, differentiation, recruitment, and survival. The objective of this study was to determine whether intravenous treatment with monoclonal anti-IL-5 woul...
متن کاملS100A12 Suppresses Pro-inflammatory, but Not Pro-Thrombotic Functions of Serum Amyloid A
S100A12 is elevated in the circulation in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases and recent studies indicate pleiotropic functions. Serum amyloid A induces monocyte cytokines and tissue factor. S100A12 did not stimulate IL-6, IL-8, IL-1β or TNF-α production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells but low amounts consistently reduced cytokine mRNA and protein levels induced by serum amy...

متن کاملRepeated, but not acute, stress suppresses inflammatory plasma extravasation.
Clinical findings suggest that inflammatory disease symptoms are aggravated by ongoing, repeated stress, but not by acute stress. We hypothesized that, compared with single acute stressors, chronic repeated stress may engage different physiological mechanisms that exert qualitatively different effects on the inflammatory response. Because inhibition of plasma extravasation, a critical component...
