Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and RANTES are chemotactic for graft infiltrating lymphocytes during acute lung allograft rejection.
Graft infiltrating lymphocytes (GILs) are crucial to rejection of lung allografts. However, chemotactic activities, chemokines responsible for GIL recruitment, and cells involved in chemokine production during lung allograft rejection have not been evaluated. This study determined whether chemotactic activity for GILs is upregulated, and whether the chemokines monocyte chemoattractant protein (...
متن کاملUrine Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1(UMCP-1) as a Biomarker of Renal Involvement in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Objective(s)Lupus nephritis (LN) is frequently associated with a poor long-term prognosis. Renal biopsy is the diagnostic method of choice in this condition. Urine biomarkers have been mentioned in the diagnosis of LN. The study,s purpose was to evaluate the performance of urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein 1(UMCP-1) as a biomarker of renal involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus.Mate...
متن کاملRenal and Urinary Levels of Endothelial Protein C Receptor Correlate with Acute Renal Allograft Rejection
The Endothelial Protein C Receptor (EPCR) is expressed on leukocytes, on endothelium of large blood vessels and to a lesser extent on capillaries. Membrane bound EPCR plays an important role in the activation of protein C which has anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective effects. After cleavage by a protease EPCR is also found as a soluble protein. Acute rejection of kidney allograf...
متن کاملUrinary excretion of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) progresses to renal insufficiency in >50% of patients and is characterized by interstitial inflammation and fibrosis in the end stage. In a rat model of ADPKD, monocytes accumulate within the renal interstitium in association with increased levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in cyst mural cells and increased excretion of thi...
متن کاملUrinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a marker of active renal vasculitis.
BACKGROUND Macrophage infiltration and cytokine production are important in the pathogenesis of crescentic glomerulonephritis in anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether urinary levels of chemokines, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and fractalkine, were useful tools for non-invasive assessment of renal vasculiti...
