Intestinal dysbiosis and innate immune responses in axial spondyloarthritis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Inflammatory innate and adaptive immune cell responses to commensal bacteria underlie the pathogenesis of human chronic inflammatory diseases. Intestinal dysbiosis has been described in patients with spondyloarthritis (SpA) and seems to be correlated with histologic and immunologic alterations. Purpose of this review is to discuss the relationship occurring between intestinal ...
متن کاملTLR2 – an innate immune checkpoint in multiple sclerosis
Our appreciation of the role of the innate immune system in the organ-specific autoimmunity is growing in parallel with better understanding of innate immunity and its function. Historically, more research had been devoted to adaptive immunity in initiating tissue damage in organ-specific autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS). MS is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the ce...
متن کاملPromoter hypermethylation in prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND The prostate gland is the most common site of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer mortality in American men. It is well known that epigenetic alterations such as DNA methylation within the regulatory (promoter) regions of genes are associated with transcriptional silencing in cancer. Promoter hypermethylation of critical pathway genes could be potential biomarkers and thera...
متن کاملReelin promoter hypermethylation in schizophrenia.
Reelin mRNA and protein levels are reduced by approximately 50% in various cortical structures of postmortem brain from patients diagnosed with schizophrenia or bipolar illness with psychosis. In addition, the mRNA encoding the methylating enzyme, DNA methyltransferase 1, is up-regulated in the same neurons that coexpress reelin and glutamic acid decarboxylase 67. We have analyzed the extent an...
متن کاملHIV-1 gp120 induces TLR2- and TLR4-mediated innate immune activation in human female genital epithelium.
Although women constitute half of all HIV-1-infected people worldwide (UNAIDS World AIDS Day Report, 2011), the earliest events in the female reproductive tract (FRT) during heterosexual HIV-1 transmission are poorly understood. Recently, we demonstrated that HIV-1 could directly impair the mucosal epithelial barrier in the FRT. This suggested that the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120 was bein...
