Tissue injury, such as incisional wound, results in an inflammatory response as well as acute to chronic mechanical and thermal pain. It is now understood that there is a strong contribution of these immune cells to the pain phenotype.
CD11b+Ly6G- myeloid cells mediate mechanical inflammatory pain hypersensitivity.

View SamplesNew and effective therapeutical options are available for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. One of such treatments is rituximab, and chimeric anti-CD20 antibody that selectively depletes the CD20+ B cell subpopulation.
Identification of candidate genes for rituximab response in rheumatoid arthritis patients by microarray expression profiling in blood cells.

View SamplesToxoplasma strains have been shown to modulate host cell transcription. We have found a type II Toxoplasma gene, GRA15, which activates the nuclear translocation of the NF-kappaB p65 transcription factor.

View SamplesWe sought to find a gene-expression multigene predictor of response to infliximab therapy in Rheumatoid Arthritis patients. Using internal and external cross-validation systems we have built and validated an 8-gene predictor for response to infliximab.
An eight-gene blood expression profile predicts the response to infliximab in rheumatoid arthritis.

We also compared unbent and bent PtaZFP2-overexpressing poplars. The applied strain is quantitatively controlled (Coutand & Moulia, 2000, JExpBot; coutand et al., 2009, Plant Physiology) -
The zinc finger protein PtaZFP2 negatively controls stem growth and gene expression responsiveness to external mechanical loads in poplar.
Treatment
View SamplesThe Toxoplasma type I ROP16 kinase directly activates the host STAT3 and STAT6 transcription factors and regulates the expression of many host genes. However, many of genes lack known STAT3/6 transcription factor binding sites in their promoter regions.
Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry 16 kinase promotes host resistance to oral infection and intestinal inflammation only in the context of the dense granule protein GRA15.
