概括
在危急疾病中,免疫细胞之间的葡萄皮质受体 (GCR) 信号传递有所不同. 多态核细胞 (PMN) 显示减少的GCR-α/β/γ,而外围血液单核细胞 (PBMC) 则增加了GCR-P和DUSP1.
科学领域:
- 免疫学
- 内分泌学
- 危急护理医学
背景情况:
- 葡萄糖皮质体 (GC) 信号传递对于严重疾病的免疫调节至关重要.
- 细胞特异性GC反应和替代GCR异型 (GCR-γ,GCR-P) 和标 (GILZ,DUSP1) 的作用尚不清楚.
研究的目的:
- 在重症患者的免疫细胞中研究GCR变异和GC调节基因 (GILZ,DUSP1) 的细胞特异表达模式.
- 探索这些变化的时间动态及其与炎症标志物的相关性.
主要方法:
- 在43名重症患者和25名健康对照人群中进行前性观察研究.
- 纵向抽取血液样本 (接收时间为4,8,14天).
- 在孤立的PMN和PBMC中对GCR变体 (GCR-α,GCR-β,GCR-γ,GCR-P) 和目标 (GILZ,DUSP1) 进行RT-PCR分析.
- 测量血清皮质醇,ACTH,IL-6和IL-10.
- 用于统计分析的混合效应建模.
主要成果:
- PMN显示GCR-α,GCR-β和GCR-γ的持续下调,其中GILZ保持稳定,GCR-P保持稳定.
- 与对照组相比,PBMC的GCR-P呈上调,而GCR-α,GCR-β,GCR-γ和GILZ则保持不变.
- DUSP1在PMN下调,在PBMC上调;IL-6与GILZ和DUSP1负相关.
结论:
- 在严重疾病期间,先天性 (PMN) 和适应性 (PBMC) 免疫细胞之间的GC反应显著分歧.
- GCR信号通路的细胞特异性变化可能是皮质醇差异性免疫反应的基础.

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Glucocorticoids
201
Glucocorticoids, a class of anti-inflammatory drugs, are pivotal in treating moderate to severe Crohn's disease by inducing remission. They exhibit their anti-inflammatory action by inhibiting the production of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1, and chemokines like IL-8. In addition, they reduce the expression of inflammatory cell adhesion molecules and inhibit gene transcription of nitric oxide synthase, phospholipase A2, cyclooxygenase-2...

Antiasthma Drugs: Inhaled Corticosteroids and Glucocorticoids
383
Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are anti-inflammatory drugs used primarily in treating persistent asthma and providing long-term maintenance. They target the bronchial mucosa, the lining of the airways, to control inflammation, a critical factor in asthma progression and exacerbation.
ICS work through a multifaceted mechanism of action. They suppress the inflammatory response caused by the proliferation of TH cells. They also reduce the transcription of the IL-2 gene, which is involved in the...

Receptor Downregulation in MVBs
2.1K
Multivesicular bodies (MVBs) are mature endosomes that sort ubiquitinated proteins and then fuse with lysosomes to degrade the sorted proteins. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its receptor (EGFR) form a complex that can be internalized through endocytosis, sorted into an MVB, and later degraded.
The EGFR can initiate signaling pathways that lead to cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Overexpression of EGFR stimulates cells to proliferate. Excessive EGFR...

Cell Specific Gene Expression
13.9K
Multicellular organisms contain a variety of structurally and functionally distinct cell types, but the DNA in all the cells originated from the same parent cells. The differences in the cells can be attributed to the differential gene expression. Liver cells, whose functions include detoxification of blood, production of bile to metabolize fats, and synthesis of proteins essential for metabolism, must express a specific set of genes to perform their functions. Gene expression also varies with...

Diversity in Cell Signaling Responses
6.7K
The physiological function of a cell and cellular communication are outcomes of a range of extrinsic signals, intracellular signaling pathways, and cellular responses. No two cell types express the same repertoire of signaling components. Receptors are highly selective for their cognate ligands, but once activated, they can alter multiple cellular processes such as DNA transcription, protein synthesis, and metabolic activity.

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway
9.2K
Several cytokine receptors have tightly bound Janus kinase or JAK proteins attached at their cytosolic tail. Small signaling molecules such as cytokines, growth hormones, or prolactins bind to the cytokine receptors and initiate their dimerization. The dimerization brings the cytosolic JAKs together that trans-phosphorylate and activates each other. The activated JAKs now phosphorylate cytosolic tails of the cytokine receptors, which serve as binding sites for adaptor proteins such as SH2...
