Journal Article

Expression of adhesion molecules, platelet-activating factor, and chemokines by Kaposi's sarcoma cells.

TL;DR: The set of molecules identified in the present study is probably important in determining the prominent leukocyte infiltration observed in KS, and may amplify autocrine/paracrine circuits that sustain KS proliferation and contribute to recruitment of host vascular cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

TNF-alpha and the IFN-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10/CXCL-10) delivered by parvoviral vectors act in synergy to induce antitumor effects in mouse glioblastoma.

TL;DR: In an established in vivo glioma model, repeated simultaneous peritumoral injection of the IP-10- and TNF-α-delivering parvoviruses failed to improve the therapeutic effect as compared with the use of a single cytokine-del delivering vector, suggesting cytokine -mediated immunostimulation, rather than inhibition of vascularization, is likely responsible for the therapeutic efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemokines: a superfamily of chemotactic cytokines.

TL;DR: The spectrum of action of chemokines encompasses a large number of leukocyte populations, including monocytes, granulocytes, lymphocytes, NK and dendritic cells as discussed by the authors.
Journal Article

IL-2-regulated expression of the monocyte chemotactic protein-1 receptor (CCR2) in human NK cells: characterization of a predominant 3.4-kilobase transcript containing CCR2B and CCR2A sequences.

TL;DR: Sequence analysis as well as Northern blotting and RNase protection with different probes revealed that the CCR2 gene is expressed in activated NK cells and mononuclear phagocytes as a predominant long transcript, which is polyadenylated and present in the cytoplasm.
