In vitro Superoxide Production by Peripheral Neutrophils from Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease by O. H. Nielsen, D. Berild, I. Ahnfelt-Rønne

“…The enhanced oxygen derived free radical production previously reported in active IBD, and especially in CD intestinal lesions, may either be due to an accumulation of productive phagocytes or to a change of the inflammatory profile of these cells when migrating into intestinal lesions, possibly due to interaction with other mediators (e.g. adhesion molecules and interleukins).…”

Virus Infection-Induced Bronchial Asthma Exacerbation by Mutsuo Yamaya

“…Viral infections also enhance the production of inflammatory mediators and substances in airway epithelial cells, mast cells, and other inflammatory cells, such as IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF, RANTES, histamine, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1. Viral infections affect the barrier function of the airway epithelial cells and vascular endothelial cells. …”

Specific receptor usage in Plasmodium falciparum cytoadherence is associated with disease outcome. by Lucy B Ochola, Bethsheba R Siddondo, Harold Ocholla, Siana Nkya, Eva N Kimani, Thomas N Williams, Johnstone O Makale, Anne Liljander, Britta C Urban, Pete C Bull, Tadge Szestak, Kevin Marsh, Alister G Craig

“…In this study we have examined the cytoadherence patterns of 101 patient isolates from varying clinical syndromes to CD36 and ICAM-1, and have used variant ICAM-1 proteins to further characterise this adhesive phenotype. Our results show that increased binding to CD36 is associated with uncomplicated malaria while ICAM-1 adhesion is raised in parasites from cerebral malaria cases.…”

The Role of 5-Lipoxygenase and Leukotrienes in Shock and Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury by Antonietta Rossi, Carlo Pergola, Salvatore Cuzzocrea, Lidia Sautebin

“…In particular, several data indicate that LTs regulate neutrophil trafficking in damaged tissue in shock and ischemia-reperfusion, mainly through the modulation of adhesion molecule expression. This concept may provide new insights into the interpretation of the protective effect of 5-LO inhibition, which may be useful in the therapy of pathological conditions associated with septic and nonseptic shock and ischemia-reperfusion injury.…”
