Editorial: Vascular Inflammation in Systemic Autoimmunity
The immune system evolutionarily arises to integrate distant tissues and coordinate responses toward environmental or endogenous threats in complex living beings (1). To this purpose, innate and adaptive immune cells exploit the vast network provided by the vasculature, which enables information exchange and physical communication between threatened tissues and tissues in charge of immune cell ...
متن کاملThe role of inflammation in vascular diseases.
When the body responds to an infectious insult, it initiates an immune response to eliminate the pathogen. The hallmark of the immune response is an inflammatory cascade that can also do extensive damage to host tissues. Inflammation is a major contributing factor to many vascular events, including atherosclerotic plaque development and rupture, aortic aneurysm formation, angiogenesis, and isch...
متن کاملHDL, PTX3, and vascular protection.
The superfamily of pentraxins consists of evolutionary conserved acute phase proteins characterized by the presence of a multimeric structural motif, the pentraxin domain (reviewed in1). C-reactive protein and serum amyloid P represent the short pentraxin arm of this family and are mainly produced by the liver. The long pentraxins were identified more recently as cytokine-inducible molecules ex...
متن کاملA neuropeptide in immune-mediated inflammation, Y?
Disturbances in crosstalk between the immune system and the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) can contribute to the pathogenesis of Th1-mediated autoimmunity. Recent studies indicate that neuropeptide Y (NPY) has a major role in the regulation of Th1 responses. The precise role of NPY has been an enigma, but a recent study provides a breakthrough, demonstrating that NPY has a bimodal role as a n...
