Macrophage nitric oxide synthase gene: two upstream regions mediate induction by interferon gamma and lipopolysaccharide

TL;DR: Delineation of these two cooperative regions explains at the level of transcription how IFN-gamma and LPS act in concert to induce maximally the mac-NOS gene and, furthermore, howIFN-Gamma augments the inflammatory response to LPS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human endothelial cells express CCR2 and respond to MCP-1: direct role of MCP-1 in angiogenesis and tumor progression.

TL;DR: Treatment of immunodeficient mice bearing human breast carcinoma cells with a neutralizing antibody to MCP-1 resulted in significant increases in survival and inhibition of the growth of lung micrometastases, indicating that M CP-1 can act as a direct mediator of angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances in graft-versus-host disease biology and therapy

TL;DR: This Review highlights the recent advances in understanding the pathophysiology of GVHD and its treatment, with a focus on manipulations of the immune system that are amenable to clinical application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Defensin-1, Defensin-2, and CAP37/Azurocidin as T-cell Chemoattractant Proteins Released from Interleukin-8-stimulated Neutrophils (∗)

TL;DR: The antimicrobial proteins, CAP37/azurocidin and defensins H NP-1 and HNP-2, are identified as potent neutrophil-derived chemoattractants for T-cells, which represent primordial antimicrobial peptides which may have evolved into acute inflammatory cell-derived signals that mobilize immunocompetent T- cells and other inflammatory cells.
