Plasma Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase and Arginase Type I May Contribute to Decreased Blood T-Cell Count in Hemodialysis Patients
(2012)
Background: Acquired immunity is impaired in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and decreased T-cell number may contribute. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and arginase type I (ARG) catabolize tryptophane and arginine, respectively, ...
Uric acid induces caspase-1 activation, IL-1 beta secretion and P2X7 receptor dependent proliferation in primary human lymphocytes
(2013)
Background: Urate through Nacht Domain, Leucine-Rich Repeat, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NALP3) dependent caspase-1 activation stimulates macrophages to secrete inteleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta). Purinergic receptor ...
Serum osteoprotegerin is markedly increased and may contribute to decreased blood T cell count in hemodialysis patients
(2013)
Acquired immunity is impaired in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and decreased T cell number may contribute. Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) are expressed in cells of the ...
Inhibition of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in mixed lymphocyte reaction affects glucose influx and enzymes involved in aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis in alloreactive T-cells
(2013)
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immunity. T-cell proliferation and differentiation to effector cells require increased glucose consumption, aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis. The effect of IDO on ...
Damage-associated molecular patterns derived from mitochondria may contribute to the hemodialysis-associated inflammation
(2014)
Inflammation is common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are released during cell necrosis or apoptosis and induce inflammation. Cell apoptosis is increased in HD ...
The Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase Inhibitor 1-methyl-tryptophan Suppresses Mitochondrial Function, Induces Aerobic Glycolysis and Decreases Interleukin-10 Production in Human Lymphocytes
(2012)
Background: Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immunity. It is known that IDO induces T-cell differentiation to regulatory T-cells (Treg) through tryptophan depletion and/or kynurenine pathway products. ...
Urate crystals induce NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent IL-1 beta 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-1 beta (IL-1 beta). Urate also enhances adaptive ...
