The role of chemokines in neutrophil biology.
Neutrophils are the first to be recruited to a site of infection or a diseased site. Among various inflammatory mediators, CXC chemokines including IL-8 (CXCL8), MIP-2 (CXCL2), and KC (CXCL1) are the most critical for such recruitment. Neutrophils have been considered as effector cells that kill bacteria or destroy affected tissues mainly through the production of reactive oxygen species. Recen...
متن کاملP163: The Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Human Amniotic Membrane Epithelial Cells-Derived Condition Media
The human amniotic membrane known as the innermost single epithelial-covered layer provides many applications such as applicable anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. These immunomodulatory effects belongs to the epithelial cells, a type of epiblast-derived fetal stem cells which currently used for regenerative medicine and transplantation. These cells are collected by author-prepared faci...
متن کاملChemokines in inflammatory bowel disease.
C hemokines (chemotactic cytokines) are small (7–10 kDa) heparin binding proteins that govern the migration of circulating leucocytes to the sites of inflammation. Chemokines, currently numbering more than 50, are classified into four supergene families based on cysteine residues: CXC, CC, C, and CX3C chemokines (table 1). Chemokines are distinguished from other cytokines by acting on the G pro...
متن کاملChemokines in inflammatory bowel diseases.
Uncontrolled activation of mucosal effector cells has been identified as the main pathogenic mechanism involved in the initiation and perpetuation of mucosal inflammation in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The sustained activation of these cells leads to the aberrant production of various pro-inflammatory mediators, which co-ordinated action amplifies the inflammatory process. In this settin...
متن کاملChemokines in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies.
The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) represent a heterogeneous group of acquired muscle diseases. The three best-studied subgroups: dermatomyositis (DM), polymyositis (PM), and sporadic inclusion body myositis (IBM), differ considerably both clinically and pathophysiologically. DM is a chiefly humoral endotheliopathy often associated with characteristic skin manifestations. In PM and IB...
