Direct and Differential Suppression of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell Subsets by Sunitinib Is Compartmentally Constrained

TL;DR: It is concluded that compartment-dependent GM-CSF exposure in resistant tumors may account for the regionalized effect of sunitinib upon host MDSC modulation and hypothesize that ancillary strategies to decrease such regionalized escape will enhance the potency of sun itinib as an immunomodulator and a cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Act1, a U-box E3 Ubiquitin Ligase for IL-17 Signaling

TL;DR: It is proposed that Act1 mediates IL- 17–induced signaling pathways through its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity and that TRAF6 is a critical substrate of Act1, which indicates the importance of protein ubiquitination in the IL-17–dependent inflammatory response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrotyrosine Proteome Survey in Asthma Identifies Oxidative Mechanism of Catalase Inactivation

TL;DR: Analysis of catalase isolated from asthmatic airway epithelial cells revealed increased amounts of several protein oxidation markers, including chloro- and nitrotyrosine, linking oxidative modification to the reduced activity in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

The inducible kinase IKKi is required for IL-17-dependent signaling associated with neutrophilia and pulmonary inflammation

TL;DR: IKKi is a kinase newly identified as modulating IL-17 signaling through its effect on Act1 phosphorylation and consequent function, and is found that IKKi was required forIL-17-induced expression of genes encoding inflammatory molecules in primary airway epithelial cells, neutrophilia and pulmonary inflammation.
