OX40-OX40L Interaction Promotes Proliferation and Activation of Lymphocytes via NFATc1 in ApoE-Deficient Mice
BACKGROUND Our previous studies have shown that OX40-OX40L interaction regulates the expression of nuclear factor of activated T cells c1(NFATc1) in ApoE(-/-) mice during atherogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether OX40-OX40L interaction promotes Th cell activation via NFATc1 in ApoE(-/-) mice. METHODS AND RESULTS The lymphocytes isolated from spleen of ApoE (-/-) mice wer...
متن کاملOX40:OX40L Axis: Emerging Targets for Immunotherapy of Human Disease
Recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms through which T cells are activated have led to new therapeutic approaches in the treatment of immunological disorders. An emerging target for selective immune intervention has been the manipulation of T cell costimulatory pathways. Impressive results in animal models have shown that the tumor-necrosis-factor receptor (TNFR) family member, ...
متن کاملInterruption of the Tnfrsf4/Tnfsf4 (OX40/OX40L) pathway attenuates atherogenesis in low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice.
OBJECTIVE Atherosclerosis is a chronic (auto-)inflammatory disease and T cell activation is an important factor in this process. Tnfrsf4 (OX40) and Tnfsf4 (OX40 ligand) are members of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and TNF receptor family and OX40/OX40L mediated signaling is important in co-activation of T cells and facilitates B-T cell interaction. In this study we assessed the role of the OX...
متن کاملGinkgolide B Reduces Atherogenesis and Vascular Inflammation in ApoE−/− Mice
AIMS To investigate whether ginkgolide B (a platelet-activating factor inhibitor) affects vascular inflammation in atherosclerosis-prone apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)) mice. METHODS AND RESULTS Human platelets were used to evaluate the effects of ginkgolide B on platelet aggregation and signal transduction. Ginkgolide B attenuated platelet aggregation and inhibited phosphatidylinosito...
متن کاملMap3k8 Modulates Monocyte State and Atherogenesis in ApoE-/- Mice.
OBJECTIVE Map3k8 (Cot/Tpl2) activates the MKK1/2-ERK1/2, MAPK pathway downstream from interleukin-1R, tumor necrosis factor-αR, NOD-2R (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like 2R), adiponectinR, and Toll-like receptors. Map3k8 plays a key role in innate and adaptive immunity and influences inflammatory processes by modulating the functions of different cell types. However, its role in at...
