Secretion of biologically active interferon-gamma inducible protein-10 (IP-10) by Lactococcus lactis
BACKGROUND Chemokines are a large group of chemotactic cytokines that regulate and direct migration of leukocytes, activate inflammatory responses, and are involved in many other functions including regulation of tumor development. Interferon-gamma inducible-protein-10 (IP-10) is a member of the C-X-C subfamily of the chemokine family of cytokines. IP-10 specifically chemoattracts activated T l...
متن کاملBiochemical characterization of a gamma interferon-inducible cytokine (IP-10)
An IFN-gamma-inducible protein, IP-10, has previously been described to belong to a gene family of chemotactic and mitogenic proteins, associated with inflammation and proliferation. Biochemical characterization of this predicted protein has been pursued through the development of polyclonal monospecific antisera to recombinant protein and synthetic peptides. These reagents establish that the I...
متن کاملNisin-inducible secretion of a biologically active single-chain insulin analog by Lactococcus lactis NZ9000.
Oral delivery of insulin to diabetic patients is highly desirable because it would be non-invasive and more closely mimic normal physiology, but this route of administration typically results in low bioavailability due to low pH and enzymatic degradation along the gastrointestinal tract. To explore an alternative approach that may mitigate these obstacles and also facilitate local synthesis of ...
متن کاملExpression of bioactive porcine interferon-gamma by recombinant Lactococcus lactis.
Lactococcus lactis is an immunomodulator and candidate live mucosal delivery vehicle for vaccine antigens and for biologically active molecules, including immunoregulatory cytokines such as interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). To provide a tool for investigating downregulation of allergic predisposition of pigs to experimental food allergy, porcine IFN-gamma was cloned and expressed as a fusion protei...
متن کاملRole of Interferon-γ-Inducible Protein (IP)-10/ (IP-10/CXCL10) in Ulcerative Colitis; A Review of the Present Status
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affecting the colonic mucosa; it is of unknown etiology (Baumgart & Carding, 2007). UC clinically displays bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain and weight loss, and often leads to a severe outcome since the therapeutic approaches, including corticosteroid and 5-aminosalicylic acid, are not always successful in inducing ...
