Journal ArticleDOI

Novel signal transduction pathway utilized by extracellular HSP70: role of toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exogenously added HSP70 possesses potent cytokine activity, with the ability to bind with high affinity to the plasma membrane, elicit a rapid intracellular Ca2+ flux, activate NF-κB, and up-regulate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in human monocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleotide sequence of human monocyte interleukin 1 precursor cDNA.

TL;DR: The cDNA nucleotide sequence suggests that IL-1 is initially translated as a precursor molecule that is subsequently processed into the 15,000-20,000 Mr protein usually associated with IL- 1 activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unphosphorylated STAT3 accumulates in response to IL-6 and activates transcription by binding to NFκB

TL;DR: U-STAT3 sustains cytokine-dependent signaling at late times through a mechanism completely distinct from that used by P-STAT2, and is likely to be important in physiological responses to gp130-linked cytokines and growth factors that activate STAT3, and in cancers that have constitutively active P- STAT3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Negative cross-talk between hematopoietic regulators: GATA proteins repress PU.1.

TL;DR: Interactions between PU.1 and GATA proteins play a critical role in the decision of stem cells to commit to erythroid vs. myeloid lineages, suggesting that normal hematopoietic lineage development is under threat.
