HSPG 2 ( heparan sulfate proteoglycan 2 )
The transcribed mRNA is 14,294 bp (Cohen et al., 1993). An alternative transcript for unc-52, the homologous gene to perlecan in C. elegans, has been reported (Spike et al., 2002). In addition, a human alternative transcript was submitted to the NCBI (Accession Q8TEU3_HUMAN) as a sequence for a short version variant, miniperl, encoding a 240 amino acid protein of 25.942 kD. Expression of HSPG2 ...
متن کاملRegulation of eosinophil trafficking by SWAP-70 and its role in allergic airway inflammation.
Eosinophils are the predominant inflammatory cells recruited to allergic airways. In this article, we show that human and murine eosinophils express SWAP-70, an intracellular RAC-binding signaling protein, and examine its role in mediating eosinophil trafficking and pulmonary recruitment in a murine model of allergic airway inflammation. Compared with wild-type eosinophils, SWAP-70-deficient (S...
متن کاملFgr deficiency results in defective eosinophil recruitment to the lung during allergic airway inflammation.
Using a mouse model of allergic lung inflammation, we found that mice deficient of Fgr, a Src family tyrosine kinase highly expressed in myelomonocytic cells, fail to develop lung eosinophilia in response to repeated challenge with aerosolized OVA. Both tissue and airway eosinophilia were markedly reduced in fgr(-/-) mice, whereas mice with the sole deficiency of Hck, another Src family member,...
متن کاملRegulation of Allergic Inflammation and Eosinophil Recruitment in Mice Lacking the Transcription Factor NFAT
Transcription factors of the NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells) family regulate the expression of many genes encoding immunoregulatory cytokines and cell surface proteins during the immune response. The NFAT protein NFAT1 (NFATp) is expressed and functional in T cells, B cells, mast cells, and natural killer cells. Here we report a detailed analysis of the enhanced eosinophil responses ...
متن کاملC-C chemokine-induced eosinophil chemotaxis during allergic airway inflammation.
The production of eosinophil-specific chemotactic factors during allergic airway responses may be a pivotal event resulting in eosinophil accumulation, activation, and airway damage. Recent studies have identified specific chemokines that may play crucial roles in recruitment of eosinophils to the site of allergic reactions. In this study we have utilized an established model of schistosome egg...
