The Role of an Anti-Inflammatory Diet in Conjunction to COVID-19

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the use of anti-inflammatory dietary approaches to prevent severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) or lessen COVID-19 effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

STING1 in sepsis: Mechanisms, functions, and implications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the regulation and function of the STING1 pathway in sepsis and highlight it as a suitable drug target for the treatment of lethal infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

microRNAs and Inflammatory Immune Response in SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Narrative Review

TL;DR: This review aimed to directly address ncRNA role in SARS-CoV-2-immune system crosstalk upon COVID-19 infection, particularly focusing on inflammatory pathways and cytokine storm syndromes.

Endothelium-protective, histone-neutralizing properties of the polyanionic agent defibrotide.

TL;DR: In this article, the FDA-approved polyanionic agent defibrotide (a pleiotropic mixture of oligonucleotides) directly engages histones and thereby blocks their pathological effects on endothelium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bleeding Complications in Patients With Perioperative COVID-19 Infection Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A Single-Center Matched Case-Control Study

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated a possible significant correlation between perioperative COVID-19 infection and hemorrhagic complications compared to non-COVID19 patients and found that COVID infection is confirmed to markedly increase the postoperative risk.

TH1 and TH2 cells: different patterns of lymphokine secretion lead to different functional properties.

TL;DR: Two types of cloned helper T cells are described, defined primarily by differences in the pattern of lymphokines ynthesized, and the different functions of the two types of cells and their lymphokine synthesis are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

From inflammation to sickness and depression: when the immune system subjugates the brain

TL;DR: In response to a peripheral infection, innate immune cells produce pro-inflammatory cytokines that act on the brain to cause sickness behaviour, which can lead to an exacerbation of sickness and the development of symptoms of depression in vulnerable individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

IL-17 and Th17 Cells.

TL;DR: The investigation of the differentiation, effector function, and regulation of Th17 cells has opened up a new framework for understanding T cell differentiation and now appreciate the importance of Th 17 cells in clearing pathogens during host defense reactions and in inducing tissue inflammation in autoimmune disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gout-associated uric acid crystals activate the NALP3 inflammasome

TL;DR: It is shown that MSU and CPPD engage the caspase-1-activating NALP3 (also called cryopyrin) inflammasome, resulting in the production of active interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 in mice deficient in the IL-1β receptor.
