Colon cancer stem cells dictate tumor growth and resist cell death by production of interleukin-4.

TL;DR: The data suggest that colon tumor growth is dictated by stem-like cells that are treatment resistant due to the autocrine production of IL-4, which strongly enhances the antitumor efficacy of standard chemotherapeutic drugs through selective sensitization of CD133(+) cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low vitamin D serum level is related to severe fibrosis and low responsiveness to interferon-based therapy in genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C

TL;DR: Low vitamin D is linked to severe fibrosis and low SVR on interferon (IFN)‐based therapy and G1 CHC patients had low 25(OH)D serum levels, possibly because of reduced CYP27A1 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells suppress mast cell degranulation and allergic responses through OX40-OX40L interaction.

TL;DR: The demonstrated crosstalk between Treg cells and MCs defines a previously unrecognized mechanism controlling MC degranulation, which may contribute to the severity of allergic responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrophil extracellular traps mediate transfer of cytoplasmic neutrophil antigens to myeloid dendritic cells toward ANCA induction and associated autoimmunity.

TL;DR: It is shown that myeloid DCs uploaded with and activated by NET components induce ANCA and autoimmunity when injected into naive mice, providing the first demonstration that NET structures are highly immunogenic such to trigger adaptive immune response relevant for autoIMmunity.
