Critical role of CXCL4 in the lung pathogenesis of influenza (H1N1) respiratory infection

1757 views | Apr 02 2018

Guo L et al. identified CXCL4 as a vital immunoregulatory chemokine essential for protecting mice against influenza A virus infection, especially as it affects the development of lung injury and neutrophil mobilization to the inflamed lung. [Read the Full Post]

Adiponectin promotes human jaw bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell chemotaxis via CXCL1 and CXCL8

0 views | Apr 01 2018

Pu Y et al. supported the above results. Our data suggest that APN can promote h-JBMMSC chemotaxis by up-regulating CXCL1 and CXCL8. [Read the Full Post]

Zhang H et al. identified the CXCL2/MIF-CXCR2 axis as an important mediator in MDSC recruitment and as predictors and potential therapeutic targets in BC patients. [Read the Full Post]

mTORC2 mediates CXCL12-induced angiogenesis

1979 views | Jan 07 2018

Ziegler ME et al. identified mTORC2 as a critical signaling nexus downstream of CXCL12/CXCR4 that represents a potential link between mTORC2, metabolic regulation, and angiogenesis. [Read the Full Post]

Signaling factors and pathways of α-particle irradiation induced bilateral bystander responses between Beas-2B and U937 cells

0 views | Apr 12 2017

Fu J et al disclosed novel signaling cascades of macrophage-mediated bilateral bystander responses that the release of TNF-α and IL-8 regulated by MAPK and NF-κB pathways synergistically increased cellular injury after α-particle irradiation. [Read the Full Post]
