One of the CC chemokines, cutaneous T cell-attracting chemokine (CTACK/CCL27), is a skin-specific CC chemokine that is produced constitutively by keratinocytes and is highly up-regulated in inflammatory skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis and contact dermatitis. (2S)-2′-Methoxykurarinone (MOK)
BACKGROUND
Heme-oxygenase (HO)-1 acts as an inducible defense against oxidative stress and could play an important role in inflammation models, providing protection against oxidative stress and systemic inflammatory response. The objective of this study was to improve the role of HO-1 on systemic
Some anesthetics attenuate expression of endotoxin-induced production of proinflammatory genes. The anesthetic combination of ketamine/xylazine (K/X) decreases lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced liver injury in rats. However, the effects of K/X on gut function and gene expression are unknown. The
UNASSIGNED
To investigate the effect of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) on the apoptosis of human degenerated nucleus pulposus (NP) cells induced by tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and explore its possible molecular mechanism.
UNASSIGNED
The intervertebral disc tissues were derived from patients with
BACKGROUND
The adequacy of reporting the time element in adverse effects in articles on randomised clinical trials of cyclo-oxygenase-2 and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)alpha antagonists was surveyed.
METHODS
Prominent rheumatology and general/internal medicine journals were searched for all
During the acute-phase response to bacterial endotoxins [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)] in mice, the hepatic activity of haem oxygenase (HO) is increased. We investigated the effects of the potential humoral mediators of inflammation, interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumour necrosis factor (TNF), on hepatic HO
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is induced under various oxidative stress conditions, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) insult. Induction of HO-1 by LPS is reported to be mediated through interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), rather than other inflammatory cytokines in the mouse liver. However, we found that
The role of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha or cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) eicosanoids in dystrophinopathies has been evaluated by chronically treating (4-8 weeks) adult dystrophic mdx mice with the anti-TNF-alpha etanercept (0.5 mg/kg) or the COX-2 inhibitor meloxicam (0.2 mg/kg). Throughout the
Soluble human tumor necrosis factor (shTNFRI-Fc) and human heme oxygenase 1 (hHO-1) are key regulators for protection against oxidative and inflammatory injury for xenotransplantation. Somatic cells with more than 10 copy numbers of shTNFRI-Fc and hHO-1 were employed in somatic cell nuclear transfer
Increased expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) increases NO resistance in several cell types, although the biochemical mechanism for this protection is unknown. To address this issue, we have measured different molecular markers of nitrosative stress in three stably transfected cell lines derived
1. Previous studies have established that glucocorticoids inhibit airway smooth muscle DNA synthesis. The effects of a combination of the pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) on the inhibition of DNA synthesis by glucocorticoids in
Flavonoids have been suggested to protect against atherosclerosis via their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an enzyme that plays an important role in the vascular system, and its induction may provide a protective role against atherosclerosis. We hypothesize
Apoptosis during engraftment and inflammation induce poor islet xenograft survival. We aimed to determine whether overexpression of human heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) or soluble tumor necrosis factor-α receptor type I with human IgG1 Fc (sTNF-αR-Fc) in porcine islets could improve islet xenograft
OBJECTIVE
To examine the interaction between heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), a stress-induced antiinflammatory protein, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) in human peripheral blood monocytes.
METHODS
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from healthy donors or from patients with
Studies of vascular biology during the past decade have identified an expanding list of agonists and antagonists that regulate local hemostasis, inflammation, and reactivity in blood vessels. Interactions at the blood-endothelial interface are intricate and complex and have been postulated to play a
