The Jekyll and Hyde story of IL17-Producing γδT Cells
In comparison to conventional αβT cells, γδT cells are considered as specialized T cells based on their contributions in regulating immune response. γδT cells sense early environmental signals and initiate local immune-surveillance. The development of functional subtypes of γδT cells takes place in the thymus but they also exhibit plasticity in response to the activating signals and cytokines e...
متن کاملJekyll-Hyde neurotrophins: the story of proNGF.
Neurotrophins promote neuronal survival and differentiation by binding to two classes of cell surface receptors: members of the Trk-family receptor tyrosine kinases and p75(NTR), a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily. The discoveries that the unprocessed proneurotrophin peptide is both a preferential high-affinity ligand for p75(NTR) (with minimal affinity for trkA) and a p...
متن کاملThe inflammatory macrophage: a story of Jekyll and Hyde.
Recent investigations have highlighted new roles for the macrophage (Mphi) in the biology of inflammation. Selective depletion of Mphis from inflamed sites has confirmed their predominant role in immune-mediated damage. The components of this injury have been dissected. Mphis mediate death of stromal, parenchymal and other immune cells by engaging the death programme, resulting in apoptosis. In...

متن کاملMast cell, pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory: Jekyll and Hyde, the story continues.
IL-1 family members include inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. They can be beneficial or detrimental, not only in cancer, but also in inflammatory conditions. Mast cells (MCs) originate from CD34+/CD117+/CD13+ pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells, express c-Kit receptor (c-Kit-R), which regulates the proliferation and sustain the survival, differentiation and maturation of MCs. They ...
