Journal ArticleDOI

Mrp8 and Mrp14 are endogenous activators of Toll-like receptor 4, promoting lethal, endotoxin-induced shock

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mice lacking Mrp8-Mrp14 complexes are protected from endotoxin-induced lethal shock and Escherichia coli–induced abdominal sepsis, indicating new inflammatory components that amplify phagocyte activation during sepsi upstream of TNFα–dependent effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of dendritic cell differentiation and accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in cancer is regulated by S100A9 protein

TL;DR: It is reported here that STAT3-inducible up-regulation of the myeloid-related protein S100A9 enhances MDSC production in cancer and reveals a novel molecular mechanism of immunological abnormalities in cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

S100 proteins expressed in phagocytes: a novel group of damage-associated molecular pattern molecules

TL;DR: Analyzing the molecular basis of the specific effects exhibited by S100 proteins in greater detail bears the potential to elucidate important mechanisms of innate immunity, to establish valid biomarkers of phagocytic inflammation, and eventually to reveal novel targets for innovative anti‐inflammatory therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The endogenous Toll-like receptor 4 agonist S100A8/S100A9 (calprotectin) as innate amplifier of infection, autoimmunity, and cancer

TL;DR: S 100A8/S100A9 is not only involved in promoting the inflammatory response in infections but was also identified as a potent amplifier of inflammation in autoimmunity as well as in cancer development and tumor spread.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myeloid-related protein (MRP) 8 and MRP14, calcium-binding proteins of the S100 family, are secreted by activated monocytes via a novel, tubulin-dependent pathway.

TL;DR: The data provide evidence that the S100 proteins MRP8 and MRP14 are secreted after activation of protein kinase C via a novel pathway requiring an intact microtubule network and is associated with down-regulation of their de novo synthesis.
