Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Biology of γδ T Cell Function in Humans, Mice, and Domestic Animals
TL;DR: This review consolidates some of these studies describing conserved γδ T cell functions in humans and mice with those in other animals to provide a consensus for the current understanding of γ Δ T cell function across species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Therapeutic Potential of Polyphenols from Epilobium Angustifolium (Fireweed).
Igor A. Schepetkin,Andrew Ramstead,Liliya N. Kirpotina,Jovanka M. Voyich,Mark A. Jutila,Mark T. Quinn +5 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on the biological properties and the potential clinical usefulness of oenothein B, flavonoids, and other polyphenols derived from E. angustifolium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oenothein B, a cyclic dimeric ellagitannin isolated from Epilobium angustifolium, enhances IFNγ production by lymphocytes.
TL;DR: It is shown that oenothein B stimulated innate lymphocytes, including bovine and human γδ T cells and NK cells, resulting in either increased CD25 and/or CD69 expression, and this data suggest an additional mechanism that could account, at least in part, for the immune enhancing properties of oenotin B.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex Role of γδ T-Cell-Derived Cytokines and Growth Factors in Cancer
Andrew Ramstead,Mark A. Jutila +1 more
TL;DR: Studies in both mice and humans that examine differential cytokine secretion by γδ T cells in response to tumors and tumor immunotherapy are reviewed, and the influence of these γ δ T-cell-derived factors on tumor growth is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of Toll-Like Receptor 2 (TLR2), TLR4, and MyD88 during Pulmonary Coxiella burnetii Infection
Andrew Ramstead,Amanda Robison,Anne Blackwell,Maria E. Jerome,Brett Freedman,Kirk Lubick,Jodi F. Hedges,Mark A. Jutila +7 more
TL;DR: The roles for TLR2, TLR4, and MyD88 in pulmonary C. burnetii infection are assessed and various roles for these receptors that are dictated by the site of infection are suggested.
