Original Source: Lipid-Cytokine-Chemokine Cascade Drives Neutrophil Recruitment in a Murine Model of Inflammatory Arthritis.
A large and diverse array of chemoattractants control leukocyte trafficking, but how these apparently redundant signals collaborate in vivo is still largely unknown. We previously demonstrated an absolute requirement for the lipid chemoattractant leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) and its receptor BLT1 for neutrophil recruitment into the joint in autoantibody-induced arthritis. We now demonstrate that BLT1 is required for neutrophils to deliver IL-1 into the joint to initiate arthritis. IL-1-expressing neutrophils a...

Chemokines chemotactic cytokines CXCR CXCL
Chemokines, or chemotactic cytokines, and their receptors have been discovered as essential and selective mediators in leukocyte migration to inflammatory sites and to secondary lymphoid organs. Besid...
Neutrophil elastase (NE) is a serine protease, expressed mainly by neutrophils, that is capable of degrading a variety of structural proteins of the extracellular matrix. Infiltration of activated n...
Although the human cytokines interleukin-2 (IL-2) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha are approved marketed for tumor therapy, their use is rather limited due to severe systemic side effects. Targ...
Cytokine Tumour Necrosis Factor (TNF)
TNF is a compound that is classified as a cytokine which plays a central role in the cellular mechanisms of apoptosis or cell death. However, there are a number of different kinds of TNF, just under...

Regulation of neutrophil trafficking from the bone marrow.
Neutrophils are an essential component of the innate immune response and a major contributor to inflammation. Consequently, neutrophil homeostasis in the blood is highly regulated. Neutrophil number i...
