简介:包括长期的感染,自体免疫的疾病和癌症,很长期的人的疾病的致病经常包含坚持的、未解决的煽动性的回答。决定尖锐煽动性的回答的变换进一个长期的过程的分子的机制难倒研究人员许多年了。最近的研究揭示那B7-H1(CD274,PD-L1),一个最新识别的co-stimulatory分子,拥有天真的T房间的合作刺激和激活的受动器T房间的抑制的双功能。异常细胞的表示和B7-H1的deregulated功能在长期的病毒、细胞内部的细菌的感染期间被报导了,以及在许多自体免疫的疾病和癌症。重要地,B7-H1的双功能的解除管制看起来与被联系一延长,由为激活诱惑天真的T房间并且阻抑的不完全的有免疫力的反应激活受动器T房间。而且,指向B7-H1信号的策略的开发提供一条新、有希望的途径操作与长期的发炎联系的破坏疾病。因此,B7-H1可以在煽动性的回答的慢性起一个批评immunoregulatory作用。
简介:规划death-1(PD-1),CD28家庭的一个成员,能否定地调整TCR由与它的血缘的ligands(PD-L1或PD-L2)交往的开始建筑群的发信号。PD-1/PD-L1小径起一个重要作用在下面调整适应有免疫力的回答的有效阶段和这条小径的封锁被证明提高抗病毒并且antitumoral免疫,建议让治疗的发展与病毒感染或恶意在病人改进T房间回答可能是一个潜在的目标。在现在的学习,有一个carboxyl终端他的标签的人的PD-1的细胞外的域(指定了为sPD-1)在Escherichiacoli被表示为包括身体。产品是在列上refolded,由使不能调动的金属亲密关系层析净化了,并且由西方的弄污描绘了。而且,有高纯净的可溶的PD-1与它的血缘的ligandPD-L1拥有了特定的有约束力的活动,并且分离常数是由Scatchard情节分析决定了的0.43nmol/L。这些结果建议从原核生物的房间的refoldedsPD-1可能具有对提高抗病毒和antitumoral免疫者回答的治疗学的兴趣。
简介:生来的杀手(NK)房间是骨头导出髓的淋巴细胞。他们生产cytokines调整获得的免疫的发展。鉴于他们在母亲胎儿的接口的累积,子宫的生来的杀手(uNK)房间也被认为在怀孕期间起必要作用。我们的结果在子宫的子宫内膜,肝,怒气和外部血由NK房间比较了cytokine分泌物侧面的差别,并且由uNK房间集中了于cytokines分泌物。在怀孕鼠标的子宫的子宫内膜的IFN-和TNF-的表达式是比在肝的那些低的,这被表明,但是他们在怀孕期间显著地增加。我们的学习证明uNK房间的数字在怀孕期间显著地被增加。他们比另外的导出器官的NK房间,和他们也分泌IL-4和IL-5的次要的数量的生产了更多的IFN-和TNF-。结果显示uNK房间生产的IFN-和TNF-保证了成功的怀孕进步。

简介:到病原体的暴露导致象巨噬细胞那样的介绍抗原的房间(APC)和树枝状的房间(DC)生产各种各样的内长的调停人,包括导出的arachidonic酸(AA)eicosanoids,cytokines,和氮的氧化物(没有)。激活的APC的许多分泌产品能以一种autocrine方式自己行动并且调制他们的功能。而且,在内长的bioactive分子之间跨相互作用为他们激活并且支撑有免疫力、煽动性的回答,并且调整有免疫力的动态平衡的能力与重要后果调整职业APC的函数。尽管为许多忽视了什么时候的年与他们在心血管的动态平衡,癌症和发炎的角色相比,在免疫学的eicosanoids的重要性正在变得更多定义。前列腺素(PG)的角色E2(PGE2),知道的最好和大多数之一很好学习了eicosanoids,具有特别兴趣。它由对他们分泌cytokines的区别,成熟和他们的能力起作用调制职业DC的活动。特别地在造血的cytokines之中,interleukin-10(IL-10)是显示immunostimulatory和immunoregulatory活动的一个多种的分子。因为它的反煽动性的性质,IL-10依附许多注意。它由myeloid起源的房间调制cytokines,可溶的调停人和房间表面分子的表示,特别地巨噬细胞和DC。我们以前报导PGE2是在骨头的IL-10的有势力inducer导出髓的DC(BM-DC),和导致PGE2的IL-10是BM-DC支持inflammatory显型的一个关键管理者。BM-DC可以被看作一个重要模型学习在内长的调停人之间的复杂相互作用,并且autocrineIL-10在导出AA的类脂化合物调停人,的crossregulation起一个枢轴的作用cytokines,并且没有,与有免疫力、煽动性的回答上的批评效果。细胞与分子的免疫学。2006;3(4):271-277。
简介:高血压生产为与疾病联系的死亡经常负责的pathophysiological变化。overactive高血压蛋白原酶血管收缩素系统在高血压和与高血压联系的目标机关损坏的发展起一个中央作用,是明显的。我们以前发现了新奇血管收缩素受体(AT1)vaccine-ATR12181在自发地高血压的老鼠(SHR)稀释了高血压(BP)的发展人的必要高血压的模型。我们的目的是决定高BP的这变细是否与由高血压的状态导致的目标机关损坏的预防被联系。SHR被在联合复杂的peptide-tetanus-toxoid的重复下的注射与Freund的助手从AT1A受体的extracelluar部分对肽(编码ATR12181)使免疫。64个星期长期的观察被执行。重复种痘导致了anti-ATR12181抗体的正式就职。在观察的结束,种牛痘表明的SHR降低肾损害的BP,减少的心脏的肥大和变细。在心和肾的c-fos和c-jun的mRNA层次在种牛痘的SHR被减少。因为自我抗原被使用,疫苗的安全被担心。然而,自体免疫的疾病的符号没在心和肾的节被观察。这些数据证明对AT1受体的细胞外的部分的域的那重复免疫能对高血压引起一个目标机关保护。对AT1受体的活跃免疫可以在高血压的治疗被看作有希望的新策略。
