Dichloroacetate at therapeutic concentration alters glucose metabolism and induces regulatory t-cell differentiation in alloreactive human lymphocytes
(2013)Background: Most cancer cells rely on aerobic glycolysis. Dichloroacetate (DCA) inhibits aerobic glycolysis and is a promising relatively nontoxic anticancer compound. However, rapidly proliferating effector T-cells also ... -
Effect of storage time on the urine protein: creatinine ratio in alkaline ovine urine
(2021)The urine protein:creatinine (UPC) ratio is considered the reference method to assess proteinuria. Its diagnostic value in ovine medicine needs further elucidation. In population monitoring and/or for research purposes, ... -
In human alloreactive CD4+ T-cells, dichloroacetate inhibits aerobic glycolysis, induces apoptosis and favors differentiation towards the regulatory T-cell subset instead of effector T-cell subsets
(2016)Although kidney transplantation is the best therapy for end-stage renal disease, rejection remains a concern, and currently available immunosuppressive agents contribute to morbidity and mortality. Thus, novel immunosuppressive ... -
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase suppresses humoral alloimmunity via pathways that different to those associated with its effects on T cells
(2019)Chronic antibody-mediated rejection remains a major cause of late graft loss. Regarding cellular alloimmunity, the immunosuppressive properties of indoleamine 2,3-dioxy-genase (IDO) have been well investigated; however, ... -
Magnetic nanoparticles in medical diagnostic applications: Synthesis, characterization and proteins conjugation
(2016)Background: Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) used in biomedical applications should be discrete with small particle sizes, narrow size distribution and superparamagnetic. NPs can be tailored to target, through chemical bonds, ... -
Malignant mesothelioma cells secrete natriuretic peptides: Data and diagnostic clinical implications
(2020)Background and objective: Mesothelial cells and cardiomyocytes have shared embryonic mesodermal origin. Cardiomyocytes release BNP under stretch. We searched whether malignant mesothelioma cells also secrete BNP and if so, ... -
p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase impairment of innate immune cells is a characteristic feature of HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B
(2020)The mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 (MAPK) is implicated in the induction of immune responses by regulating the differentiation of T lymphocytes and production of cytokines. Our aim was to investigate p38MAPK ... -
Urate crystals induce NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent IL-1β secretion and proliferation in isolated primary human T-cells
(2015)Background: Urate through NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-dependent caspase-1 activation stimulates macrophages to secrete inteleukin-1β (IL-1β). Urate also enhances adaptive immunity ...
