Journal ArticleDOI
Mast cell-derived exosomes induce phenotypic and functional maturation of dendritic cells and elicit specific immune responses in vivo.
Dimitris Skokos,Hany Goubran Botros,Christian E. Demeure,Joëlle Morin,Roger Peronet,Gerd Birkenmeier,Sarah Boudaly,Salaheddine Mécheri +7 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates a heretofore unrecognized collaborative interaction between MCs and DCs leading to the elicitation of specific immune responses, including 60- and 70-kDa heat shock proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Curcumin inhibits glyoxalase 1: a possible link to its anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activity.
Thore Santel,Gabi Pflug,Nasr Y. A. Hemdan,Nasr Y. A. Hemdan,Nasr Y. A. Hemdan,Angelika Schäfer,Marcus Hollenbach,Martin Buchold,Anja Hintersdorf,Inge Lindner,Andreas Otto,Marina Bigl,Ilka Oerlecke,Antje Hutschenreuter,Ulrich Sack,Ulrich Sack,Klaus Huse,Marco Groth,Marco Groth,Claudia Birkemeyer,Wolfgang Schellenberger,Rolf Gebhardt,Mathias Platzer,Thomas S. Weiss,Mookambeswaran A. Vijayalakshmi,Monika Krüger,Gerd Birkenmeier +26 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that inhibition of Glo1 by curcumin may result in non-tolerable levels of MGO and GSH, which, in turn, modulate various metabolic cellular pathways including depletion of cellular ATP and G SH content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interleukin-17-producing T helper cells in autoimmunity.
Nasr Y. A. Hemdan,Gerd Birkenmeier,Gunnar Wichmann,Ahmed M. Abu El-Saad,Thorsten Krieger,Karsten Conrad,Ulrich Sack +6 more
TL;DR: The current knowledge on T(H)17 in autoimmunity is summarized with emphasis on its differentiation factors and some mechanisms involved in initiating pathological events of autoIMmunity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Posttranslational modification of human glyoxalase 1 indicates redox-dependent regulation.
Gerd Birkenmeier,Christin Stegemann,Ralf Hoffmann,Robert Günther,Klaus Huse,Claudia Birkemeyer +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that Glo1 activity directly can be regulated by an oxidative posttranslational modification that was found in the native enzyme, i.e, glutathionylation, which is expected to be important factors within the context of redox-dependent regulation of glucose metabolism in cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebral small vessel disease-induced Apolipoprotein E leakage is associated with Alzheimer disease and the accumulation of amyloid [beta]-protein in perivascular astrocytes
Sabrina Utter,Irfan Y. Tamboli,Jochen Walter,Ajeet Rijal Upadhaya,Gerd Birkenmeier,Claus U. Pietrzik,Estifanos Ghebremedhin,Dietmar Rudolf Thal +7 more
TL;DR: The occurrence of apoE and immunoglobulin G in SVD lesions and in the perivascular space suggests that the presence of SVD results in plasma-protein leakage into the brain.
