Extract of Reishi polysaccharides induces cytokine expression via TLR4-modulated protein kinase signaling pathways.
We have demonstrated that an extract of Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi or Ling-Zhi) polysaccharides (EORP) exerts immunomodulating activities by stimulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines from mouse spleen cells. Interestingly, via responding to LPS in genetic variation of murine macrophage HeNC2 and GG2EE cell lines, and using TLR4 Ab blockage in human blood-derived monocytic macrophages,...
متن کاملThrombin induces suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 expression in brain microglia via protein kinase Cdelta activation.
Microglia (brain macrophages) are activated upon brain damage. In this study, we demonstrated that thrombin, a pro-inflammatory stimulator of microglia, induced expression of suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCS) in microglia. RT-PCR analysis and Northern blot analysis showed that thrombin induced SOCS3 mRNA expression. Further experiments indicated SOCS3 expression was not affected by cyclo...
متن کاملCytokine signaling: Cytokine-inducible signaling inhibitors
Seven members of a family of cytokine-inducible proteins have been identified, a number of which have been shown to act as negative regulators of cytokine action. All of these proteins contain a central Src homology 2 domain, as well as conserved motifs in their carboxy-terminal regions.
متن کاملMethylation and mRNA expression levels of P15, death-associated protein kinase, and suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 genes in multiple myeloma
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status and mRNA expression levels of P15, death-associated protein kinase (DAPK), and suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1) genes in multiple myeloma (MM). Materials and Methods: The bone marrow samples of 54 MM patients were collected and the methylation status of the P15, DAPK, and SOCS1 gene promoter regions was dete...
متن کاملCytokine Regulation of G Protein Signaling in Airway Smooth Muscle
To elucidate the role of specific proinflammatory cytokines in regulating airway responsiveness, we examined the effects and mechanisms of action of IL-1 b , TNFa , and IL-2 on the b -adrenoceptor– and postreceptor-coupled transmembrane signaling mechanisms regulating relaxation in isolated rabbit tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) segments. During half-maximal isometric contraction of the tissues wi...
