  • Integrin αvβ6: An indicator of inflammation and ulcerative colitis

    Thu, 07 Sep 2023 19:22:08 GMTBy: beata@mblintl.com (Beata Boczkowska, Ph.D.)

    Integrins are heterodimeric cell surface receptors involved in cell-extracellular matrix and cell-cell adhesion. In addition, integrins convey two-way signaling between cells and their surroundings and participate in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration,survival, tissue invasion, and innate immunity. Mammalian cells have 18 distinct integrin α subunits and 8 β subunits, which can combine in various ways to form 24 different receptor heterodimers. Integrin αvβ6 is expressed exclusively by epithelial cells and functions as a receptor for extracellular matrix proteins such as fibronectin.  Read more

  • Correlation Between HLA Typing and Immune Monitoring in Human Disease

    Thu, 13 Jul 2023 16:05:43 GMTBy: beata@mblintl.com (Beata Boczkowska, Ph.D.)

    The HLA (human leukocyte antigen) system, also known as the human MHC (major histocompatibility complex), was named after its discovery with alloantibodies against leukocytes. The human MHC is located on the short arm of chromosome 6 (6p21) and spans 3,600 kilobases of DNA. It is divided into three regions, with HLA being one of the most diverse genetic systems in humans (1). Read more

  • IL-18 Therapies Targeting Inflammatory Disease

    Thu, 25 May 2023 16:43:35 GMTBy: beata@mblintl.com (Beata Boczkowska, Ph.D.)

    Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is an effective pro-inflammatory cytokine for the host defense against infections and controls the innate and acquired immune response. Both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells, including monocytes, macrophages, keratinocytes, and mesenchymal cells produce IL-18. IL-18 can increase Th1 responses and is critical for IFN-gamma production. IL-18 is regulated by IL-18BP by inhibiting the biological activity of IL-18, thereby reducing IFN-gamma production in turn suppressing the Th1 immune responses. The dysregulation of the IL-18/IL-18BP balance is associated with multiple biological effects and pathological outcomes (1). Both IL-18 and IL18BP are connected to developing psoriasis, atopic dermatitis (AD), lupus erythematosus (LE), and other inflammatory skin diseases. Still, IL-18 is more prominently involved with chronic inflammation and autoimmune disease such as inflammatory bowel diseases, type I diabetes mellitus, chronic liver disease, adult-onset Still’s disease, hemophagocytic syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.
