Immune cells regulate VEGF signalling via release of VEGF and antagonistic soluble VEGF receptor ‐1
In this study we aimed to characterize the effect of Zol and IL‐2 on VEGF signalling of blood‐derived immune cells in vitro. Upon stimulation with IL‐2, T cells and natural killer (NK) cells increase production of VEGF consecutively to the release of proinflammatory interferon (IFN)‐γ, and Zol accelerates this response specifically in γδ T cells. VEGF can, in turn, be antagonized by soluble VEGF receptor (sVEGFR)‐1, which is released depending on stimulatory conditions and the presence of monocytes. Additionally, malignant cells represented by leukaemia and lymphoma cell lines produce VEGF and some release sVE...

Immunomodulatory activity of glycodelin: Implications in allograft rejection
This study explores the immunosuppressive property of glycodelin for its possible use in preventing graft rejection. Because glycodelin is found only in certain primates, the hypothesis was investigated in an allograft nude mouse model. It is demonstrated that treatment of alloactivated mononuclear cells with glycodelin thwarts graft rejection. Glycodelin decreases the number of activated CD4+ and CD8+ cells and downregulates the expression of key proteins known to be involved in graft demise such as granzyme‐B, EOMES, IL‐2 and pro‐inflammatory cytokines (TNF‐α and IL‐6), resulting in a weakened cell‐mediated ...

New evidence of connections between increased O ‐GlcNAcylation and inflammasome in the oral mucosa of patients with oral lichen planus
In conclusion, the present study provides supportive evidence that increased O‐GlcNAcylation is associated with increased expression of NLRP3 inflammasome via the NF‐κB signaling pathway. These findings provide a new perspective on immunopathogenesis of OLP in relation to autoinflammation. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
