The intensity and duration of an inflammatory response depends on the balance of factors that favor perpetuation versus resolution. At sites of inflammation, neutrophils adherent to other cells or matrix components are exposed to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha). Although TNFalpha has been
Tumor necrosis factor activates nuclear transcription factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) by inducing serine phosphorylation of the inhibitory subunit of NF-kappaB (IkappaBalpha), which leads to its ubiquitination and degradation. In contrast, pervanadate (PV) activates NF-kappaB and induces tyrosine
Differentiation between posttherapy radiation necrosis and recurrent tumor in humans with brain tumor is still a difficult diagnostic task. The new PET tracers (18)F-fluoro-ethyl-l-tyrosine (FET) and (18)F-fluorocholine (N,N-dimethyl-N-(18)F-fluoromethyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium [FCH]) have shown
The cytotoxic activities of 2 novel distamycin-A derivatives, FCE 24517 and FCE 25450A, alone and in combination with tumor-necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), were studied. Both drugs, especially FCE 25450A, analyzed extensively here, inhibited the growth of HL60 promyelocytic cells, and human SV80 and
We have previously shown that interleukin (IL-)10-induced proliferation of the murine mast cell line D36, was dependent upon the activation of PI 3-kinase and p70 S6 kinase. Conversely, we were able to show that this pathway was not involved in the signal transduction pathway mediating IL-10
Carboxamide-methylated light chain (G1L) from human serum IgG inhibited the secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), one of the inflammatory cytokines, from adherent splenocytes and thioglycolate-induced peritoneal macrophages. The inhibition of TNF-alpha secretion by G1L was associated with
Several inflammatory effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) are known to be mediated through activation of a nuclear transcription factor NF-kappaB, but how TNF activates NF-kappaB is incompletely understood. In the present report, we examined the role of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK) in
Neutrophils up-regulate beta2 integrins like CD11b/CD18 in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Up-regulation of beta2 integrins causes neutrophils to adhere to surfaces, and to release superoxide anion (O2-). When neutrophils are exposed to LPS plus plasma under conditions not favorable for
Atherosclerosis develops from cascades of inflammatory processes. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and monocyte chemotatic protein-1 (MCP-1) play important roles in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Mycophenolic acid (MPA) has an anti-inflammatory effect. We have investigated whether MPA regulates
A Chlorella powder was tested in 118 in vitro enzyme assay systems. The powder showed potent inhibitions of peptidase cathepsin S, thromboxane A(2) synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 in a dose-concentration manner with IC(50)+/-standard error of the mean values of 3.46+/-0.93 microg/ml, 3.23+/-0.69
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN), or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) triggered the rapid, stable phosphorylation of a 75-Kd protein (p75) when incubated with permeabilized HL60 human myeloid
Transduction of Tat-tagged fusion proteins confirmed a hypothesis based on pharmacologic inhibitors (Fuortes, M., M. Melchior, H. Han, G.J. Lyon, and C. Nathan. 1999. J. Clin. Invest. 104:327-335) that proline-rich tyrosine kinase (Pyk2) plays a critical role in the activation of adherent human
OBJECTIVE
Although tumor necrosis factor alpha is implicated as an important mediator of the inflammatory response in acute pancreatitis, its role in other pathologic features of the disease remains unknown. We investigated the role for tumor necrosis factor alpha in cytoskeletal responses and the
The saimiri transforming protein oncogene, called STP-A, of herpesvirus saimiri (HVS) subgroup A is not required for viral replication but is required for lymphoid cell immortalization in culture and lymphoma induction in primates. Here we report that STP-A interacts with cellular tumor necrosis
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the timing of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) intervention and the complications of cerebral radiation necrosis (CRN) in patients with brain metastases of lung adenocarcinoma who received tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)
