Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease characterized by synovial inflammation and joint damage. Although both T cells and B cells mediate the disease pathogenesis, proinflammatory cytokines are critically involved. The TNF superfamily member

Objective An altered phenotype and dysfunction of natural killer (NK) cells have been observed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The aim of this study was to determine whether dysregulated NK cells contribute to the pathogenesis of experimental

Increasing evidence suggests a regulatory role for leptin, an adipocyte-derived hormone, in immunity. Although recent studies indicated an essential role of leptin signaling in dendritic cell (DC) maturation, the molecular mechanisms by which leptin

Dendritic cells (DC) are highly mobile APC. The trafficking of both immature and mature DC is crucial for their functions, which depends mainly on chemotactic attraction and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) activity. MMP that are in a transmembrane fo

Hypoxia, a prominent characteristic of inflammatory tissue lesions and solid tumour microenvironments, is a crucial stimulus capable of modulating the expression of specific genes involved in leucocyte recruitment. Although studies have shown that hy

B cell-activating factor (BAFF), a member of tumor necrosis factor family cytokines, has been shown to enhance the maturation and survival of peripheral B cells. While BAFF is implicated in regulating B cell function and autoimmunity, its role in the

It has long been appreciated that some immunoglobulin (and T-cell receptor) gene segments are used much more frequently than others. The VHsegment V81x is a particularly striking case of overusage. Its usage varies with the stage of B-cell developmen
Regulation of apoptosis and cell cycle progression plays an essential role in the maintenance of B-cell homeostasis, because a fine balance of survival and expansion is critical for preventing lymphocytic disorders. Although remarkable progress in un

Increasing evidence indicates a role of leptin in immune response, but it remains largely unclear whether leptin signaling is involved in regulating NK cell development in the bone marrow (BM). In this study, we have characterized NK cell differentia
