Endothelin-1 Signaling Promotes Fibrosis In Vitro in a Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia Model by Activating the Extrinsic Coagulation Cascade
Kambas, K.; Chrysanthopoulou, A.; Kourtzelis, I.; Skordala, M.; Mitroulis, I.; Rafail, S.; Vradelis, S.; Sigalas, I.; Wu, Y. Q.; Speletas, M.; Kolios, G.; Ritis, K. (2011)Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome can progress to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a serious pulmonary fibrotic disorder. Given the involvement of the extrinsic coagulation cascade in animal models of lung fibrosis, ... -
Fast and reliable mutation detection of the complete exon 11-15 JAK2 coding region using non-isotopic RNase cleavage assay (NIRCA)
Kambas, K.; Mitroulis, I.; Kourtzelis, I.; Chrysanthopoulou, A.; Speletas, M.; Ritis, K. (2009)The screening for JAK2 V617F mutation in patients with polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and idiopathic myelofibrosis offers crucial information for the final diagnosis of these disorders. Recently, several ... -
Genetic analysis of C5a receptors in neutrophils from patients with familial Mediterranean fever
Apostolidou, E.; Kambas, K.; Chrysanthopoulou, A.; Kourtzelis, I.; Speletas, M.; Ritis, K.; Mitroulis, I. (2012)Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease, characterized by MEFV gene mutations and self-limited recurrent episodes of fever and localized serositis. Complement system is a key regulator of the ... -
Regulation of the autophagic machinery in human neutrophils
Mitroulis, I.; Kourtzelis, I.; Kambas, K.; Rafail, S.; Chrysanthopoulou, A.; Speletas, M.; Ritis, K. (2010)The induction of the autophagy machinery, a process for the catabolism of cytosolic proteins and organelles, constitutes a crucial mechanism in innate immunity. However, the involvement of autophagy in human neutrophils ...
