BACKGROUND
Lymphocyte cytosolic protein 2, also known as Src homology 2 domain-containing leukocyte phosphoprotein of 76 kilodaltons (SLP-76), is an essential adaptor molecule in myeloid cells, where it regulates FcepsilonRI-induced mast cell (MC) and FcgammaR- and integrin-induced neutrophil
BACKGROUND
The spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) is recognized as a potential pharmaceutical target for the treatment of type I hypersensitivity reactions including allergic rhinitis, urticaria, asthma, and anaphylaxis because of its critical position upstream of immunoreceptor signaling complexes that
BACKGROUND
PEST-domain-enriched tyrosine phosphatase (PEP) is a protein tyrosine phosphatase exclusively expressed in hematopoietic cells. It is a potent negative regulator of T-cell receptor signalling that acts on receptor-coupled protein tyrosine kinases. PEST-domain-enriched tyrosine phosphatase
Experimental investigations on guinea-pigs were carried out to study the role of tyrosine in the prevention of anaphylaxis. It should be noted that the intensity of clinical manifestations of anaphylactic shock was reduced in 5 out of 24 L-tyrosine fed guinea-pigs (20.83%), while in 9 animals
No known therapies can prevent anaphylaxis. Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is an enzyme thought to be essential for high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) signaling in human cells. We tested the hypothesis that FDA-approved BTK inhibitors (BTKi's) would prevent IgE-mediated responses including
Cuminum cyminum L. (cumin) seed is used as a spice in various countries. Although several functions of the components in cumin seed have been reported, the anti-allergic effect of the water-soluble component in cumin seed has not been reported yet. In this study, we focused on the suppressive effect
Anaphylaxis is a rapid, life-threatening hypersensitivity reaction. Until recently, it was mainly attributed to histamine released by mast cells activated by allergen crosslinking (XL) of FcεRI-bound allergen-specific IgE. However, recent reports established that anaphylaxis could also be triggered
Mast cells function as the initiator of the allergic reaction and play a role in the innate immune system. Aggregation of the high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells triggers degranulation with the release of chemical mediators such as histamine, production of cytokines and
Whisky is matured in oak casks. Many nonvolatile substances (whisky congeners, WC) seep from the oak cask during the maturing process. In this study, three antiallergic agents (syringaldehyde, SA; lyoniresinol, Lyo; and ellagic acid, EA) were isolated from WC. Treatment with SA, Lyo, and EA reduced
Dual specificity phosphatase DUSP1 (otherwise known as mitogen-activated phosphatase 1 or MKP-1) dephosphorylates MAPKs, particularly p38, and negatively regulates innate immunity. Recent studies have shown that the DUSP1 gene is transcriptionally up-regulated by glucocorticoids (GCs) and that the
Several different risk factors and conditions may predispose to severe life-threatening anaphylaxis. Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is one such condition. Although many SM patients are suffering from mild or even no mediator-related symptoms, others have recurrent episodes of severe anaphylaxis, with
Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) is a newly assigned member of the Ig-immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif superfamily, and its functional role is suggested to be an inhibitory receptor that modulates immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif-dependent signaling
BACKGROUND
CD45, receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) are essential components of signaling through both the T cell receptor and the B cell antigen receptor. However, the functional significance of CD45 in the signaling pathway through the high-affinity immunoglobulin (Ig) E
Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is a key activator of signaling pathways downstream of multiple surface receptors implicated in asthma. SYK function has been extensively studied in mast cells downstream of the high-affinity IgE receptor, FcεR1. Preclinical studies have demonstrated a role for SYK in
There are limited treatment options for advanced interstitial lung disease (ILD). We describe a patient of ILD treated with mesenchymal stromal stem cell infusion. The index patient had end-stage ILD due to a combination of insults including treatment with radiotherapy and a tyrosine kinase
