An immune cell-selective interleukin 4 agonist.
Interleukin 4 (IL-4) is a pleiotropic cytokine. Of the cell types responsive to IL-4, T cells express one IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) type, IL-4Ralpha/IL-2Rgamma (class I IL-4R), whereas endothelial cells express another type, IL-4Ralpha/IL-13Ralpha (class II IL-4R). It was hypothesized that IL-4 variants could be generated that would be selective for cell types expressing the different IL-4Rs. A ser...
متن کاملImpaired mucosal immune responses in interleukin 4-targeted mice.
Interleukin 4-targeted (IL-4-/-) mice are defective in T helper (Th)2 cytokine production as determined after nematode infection. As Th2 cells appear to be selectively induced by oral immunization we investigated the ability of IL-4-/- mice to respond to perorally administered antigen. We found that IL-4-/- mice failed to respond to soluble protein antigens given perorally together with cholera...
متن کاملA review of Biology and clinical use of Mesenchymal stem cell: an immune -modulator progenitor cell
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which also called mesenchymal stromal cells, are multipotent stem cell. Human MSCs typically are positive for the surface markers CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, CD106, and also negative for hematopoietic markers CD34 and CD45.These cells can be isolated from postnatal bone marrow, adipose tissue, placenta, and scalp tissue, as well as from various fetal tissues. ...
متن کاملWrestlers’ immune cells produce higher interleukin-6 and lower interleukin-12 and interleukin-13 in response toin vitro mitogen activation
Objective(s):Although recent investigations have shown chronic inflammation and inflammation-associated diseases might be ameliorated by exercise; little is known about the relation between exercise training with anti/pro-inflammatory cytokines. Materials and Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted to compare interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, interferon gamma (IFN-γ) le...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 Expressed By Neoplastic Cells Provokes an Anti-Metastatic Myeloid Immune Response
OBJECTIVE Interleukin-4 (IL-4) can induce macrophages to undergo alternative activation and polarize toward an M2-like or wound healing phenotype. Tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) are thought to assume M2-like properties, and it has been suggested they promote tumor growth and metastasis through effects on the tumor stroma, including extracelluar matrix remodeling and angiogenesis. IL-4 also...
