TCR-Mediated Notch Signaling Regulates Proliferation and IFN- Production in Peripheral T Cells

Peripheral T Cells Production in γ Proliferation and IFN - TCR - Mediated Notch Signaling Regulates

Histamine receptor H1 is required for TCR-mediated p38 MAPK activation and optimal IFN-gamma production in mice.

Histamine receptor H1 (H1R) is a susceptibility gene in both experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and experimental autoimmune orchitis (EAO), 2 classical T cell-mediated models of organ-specific autoimmune disease. Here we showed that expression of H1R in naive CD4+ T cells was required for maximal IFN-gamma production but was dispensable for proliferation. Moreover, H1R signaling at...

Activation of Wnt signaling reduces high-glucose mediated damages on skin fibroblast cells

Objective(s): High-glucose (HG) stress, a mimic of diabetes mellitus (DM) in culture cells, alters expression of a large number of genes including Wnt and NF-κB signaling-related genes; however, the role of Wnt signaling during HG-mediated fibroblast damage and the relationship between Wnt and NF-κB signaling have not been understood. In this study, we aimed to investigate the ffects of Wnt sig...

Involvement of Notch in activation and effector functions of γδ T cells.

Notch signaling plays a pivotal role in cell fate decision and lineage commitment of lymphocytes. Although the role of Notch in CD4(+) and CD8(+) αβ T cells is well documented, there are no reports on how Notch signaling regulates effector functions of γδ T cells. γδ T cells are a minor fraction in the peripheral blood but are known to play a major role in defense against pathogens and tumors. ...

ارزیابی پرولیفراسیون سلولی و بیان داخل سلولی اینترفرون گاما (IFN-Gamma) در بیماران مبتلا به بروسلوز

T cell proliferation is a standard method to evaluate cellular immune responses against intracellular infectious agents. Recently, intracellular cytokine assay is a valuable procedure for studying of the immune response to various stimuli such as intracellular microbes. The present study was undertaken to assess cell-mediated    immune responses in patients with acute ...
