CD40/CD154 blockade inhibits dendritic cell expression of inflammatory cytokines but not costimulatory molecules.
Blockade of the CD40/CD154 pathway remains one of the most effective means of promoting graft survival following transplantation. However, the effects of CD40/CD154 antagonism on dendritic cell (DC) phenotype and functionality following transplantation remain incompletely understood. To dissect the effects of CD154/CD40 blockade on DC activation in vivo, we generated hematopoietic chimeras in m...
متن کاملGCSF receptor regulates antigen uptake and expression of cytokines and costimulatory molecules in dendritic cells.
RNA interference (RNAi), a process that specifically silences target gene expression, is a powerful technique to modulate cellular functions. In this study, we identified two small interference RNA (siRNA) sequences that can specifically and efficiently silence the expression of the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (GCSF-R) gene and achieved stable knockdown of GCSF-R using pFIV l...
متن کاملSimvastatin inhibits the expression of inflammatory cytokines and cell adhesion molecules induced by LPS in human dental pulp cells.
AIM To investigate the effect of simvastatin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated inflammatory cytokines, cell adhesion molecules and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) transcription factors in human dental pulp cells (HDPCs). METHODOLOGY The effect of LPS and simvastatin on human dental pulp cell (HDPCs) viability was measured using a 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2, 5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide (...
متن کاملGlucuronoxylomannan, a microbial compound, regulates expression of costimulatory molecules and production of cytokines in macrophages.
Glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) is a microbial compound that can modulate the immune response. We investigated (1) the receptors involved in uptake of GXM on monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) from healthy donors, (2) the effects of GXM on expression of specific receptors, (3) the effects of GXM mediated by pattern-recognition receptors, and (4) GXM modulation of MDM accessory and secretory function...
متن کاملInflammatory cytokines, but not bile acids, regulate expression of murine hepatic anion transporters in endotoxemia.
Endotoxin-mediated cholestasis stems from impaired hepatobiliary transport of bile acids and organic anions due to altered expression and activity of transporters, including Oatp, Mrp, Ntcp, and Bsep. However, the mechanisms by which the Oatp and Mrp genes are down-regulated are largely unknown. Using in vivo and in vitro murine models of inflammation, we examined the role of cytokines and bile...
