Myeloid cell function in MRP-14 (S100A9) null mice.
Myeloid-related protein 14 (MRP-14) and its heterodimeric partner, MRP-8, are cytosolic calcium-binding proteins, highly expressed in neutrophils and monocytes. To understand the function of MRP-14, we performed targeted disruption of the MRP-14 gene in mice. MRP-14(-/-) mice showed no obvious phenotype and were fertile. MRP-8 mRNA but not protein is present in the myeloid cells of these mice, ...
متن کاملMeasurement of blood calprotectin (MRP-8/MRP-14) levels in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
OBJECTIVES The aim of the investigation was to compare blood calprotectin (MRP8/14, S100A 8/9) levels in patients with systemic-onset, polyarticular, RF-negative and oligoarticular subtypes of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), and to explore links between blood calprotectin levels and clinical and laboratory markers of JIA activity. MATERIAL AND METHODS Measurement of calprotectin in blood...
متن کاملImpact of Neutrophil-Secreted Myeloid Related Proteins 8 and 14 (MRP 8/14) on Leishmaniasis Progression
The myeloid-related proteins (MRPs) 8/14 are small proteins mainly produced by neutrophils, which have been reported to induce NO production in macrophages. On the other hand, Leishmania survives and multiplies within phagocytes by inactivating several of their microbicidal functions. Whereas MRPs are rapidly released during the innate immune response, their role in the regulation of Leishmania...
متن کاملCalprotectin in rheumatic diseases: a review
Calprotectin also known as MRP8/14 or S100A8/A9 is a heterodimeric complex of two S100 calcium-binding proteins: myeloid-related protein 8 (MRP-8 or S100A8) and MRP-14 (or S100A9). At present, according to many authors, it is considered that calprotectin MRP8/14 is a potentially more sensitive biomarker of disease activity in rheumatoid disease than conventional inflammatory indices such as the...
متن کاملAppearance of nuclear factors that interact with genes for myeloid calcium binding proteins (MRP-8 and MRP-14) in differentiated HL-60 cells.
Myeloid calcium binding proteins MRP-8 and MRP-14 were induced, and their genes were coordinately expressed, during differentiation of human leukemia HL-60 cells into macrophage-like cells after treatment with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (VD3). Both MRP-8 and MRP-14 mRNAs appeared on the day after VD3 treatment. Their level reached a peak on day 2, and then quickly declined. Nuclear factors that i...
