متن کاملCytokine Signaling in Multiple Sclerosis and Its Therapeutic Applications
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common neurological disorders in young adults. The etiology of MS is not known but it is widely accepted that it is autoimmune in nature. Disease onset is believed to be initiated by the activation of CD4+ T cells that target autoantigens of the central nervous system (CNS) and their infiltration into the CNS, followed by the expansion of local and inf...
متن کاملNew Molecular Targets for Anti-Angiogenic Therapeutic Strategies
The concept of targeting tumor blood vessel formation, i.e. tumor angiogenesis, has long been accepted as a potential strategy for controlling tumor growth. Characterized by the ability to supply oxygen, growth factors, hormones and nutrients, tumor vasculature has been identified as a key factor for the maintenance and progression of many solid tumors. The development of tumor vasculature is r...
متن کاملAnti-angiogenic therapeutic strategies in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant vascular dysplastic disorder, characterized by recurrent nosebleeds (epistaxis), multiple telangiectases and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in major organs. Mutations in Endoglin (ENG or CD105) and Activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ACVRL1 or ALK1) genes of the TGF-β superfamily receptors are responsible for HHT1 and HHT2 res...
متن کاملAnti-Cytokine Strategies beyond Anti-Tumour Necrosis Factor-α Therapy: Pathophysiology and Clinical Implications.
Cytokines are small proteins produced by a broad range of cells important in cell signaling. They include interleukins, but also chemokines, interferons, and tumor necrosis factors (TNF). They play an important role for communication between cells of the innate and adaptive immune system. The cytokine network is complex and, therefore, therapeutic interventions are difficult. The first anti-cyt...
