Differentiated Human Alveolar Type II Cells Secrete Antiviral IL-29 (IFN-λ1) in Response to Influenza A Infection

TL;DR: The results suggest that IL-29 exerts IFN-β-independent protection in type II cells through direct activation of antiviral genes during IAV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superoxide Dismutase Mimetic, MnTE-2-PyP, Attenuates Chronic Hypoxia-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension, Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling, and Activation of the NALP3 Inflammasome

TL;DR: This study is the first to demonstrate activation of the NALP3 inflammasome with cleavage of caspase-1 and release of active IL-1 β and IL-18 in chronic hypoxic PH, as well as its attenuation by the SOD mimetic, MnTE-2-PyP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant proteins and reactive oxygen species are decreased in a murine epidermal side population with stem cell-like characteristics

TL;DR: The data indicate ROS and antioxidant levels are decreased in stem-like EpSPs, which exhibited less mitochondrial area, fewer peroxisomes and produced lower levels of ROS than Non-SPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mycobacterium tuberculosis increases IP-10 and MIG protein despite inhibition of IP-10 and MIG transcription.

TL;DR: The synergy between MTB and IFNγ in the induction of IP-10 and MIG protein appears to involve novel post-transcriptional events that incorporates non-canonical functions of NFκB and p38(mapk).
