Allelic polymorphisms at the H-2A and HLA-DQ loci influence the response of murine lymphocytes to the Mycoplasma arthritidis superantigen MAMB C Cole
Division of Rheumatology, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City 84132, USA
Infect Immun 65:4190-8. 1997..Allelic polymorphisms at MHC loci might therefore influence susceptibility to autoimmune disease by affecting immunoreactivity to specific superantigens...
Isolation and partial purification of macrophage- and dendritic cell-activating components from Mycoplasma arthritidis: association with organism virulence and involvement with Toll-like receptor 2Barry C Cole
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, 30 North 1900 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA
Infect Immun 73:6039-47. 2005..Three active components were also found by reverse-phase chromatography. We suggest that macrophage activation by M. arthritidis could play a significant role in the inflammatory response induced in the host by this organism...
Presence of Lps(d) mutation influences cytokine regulation in vivo by the Mycoplasma arthritidis mitogen superantigen and lethal toxicity in mice infected with M. arthritidisH H Mu
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, Salt Lake City 84132, USA
Infect Immun 69:3837-44. 2001..arthritidis organisms. Our results suggest that MAM interacts with the lipopolysaccharide signaling pathway, possibly involving TLR4 or a combinatorial Toll complex...
Engagement of Toll-like receptors by mycoplasmal superantigen: downregulation of TLR2 by MAM/TLR4 interactionH H Mu
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, 30 North 1900 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA
Cell Microbiol 7:789-97. 2005..These results indicate that the SAg, MAM, interacts with both TLR2 and TLR4 and that TLR4 signalling might downregulate the MAM/TLR2 inflammatory response...
TLR2 and TLR4 differentially regulate B7-1 resulting in distinct cytokine responses to the mycoplasma superantigen MAM as well as to disease induced by Mycoplasma arthritidisHong Hua Mu
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, 30 North 1900 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA
Cell Microbiol 8:414-26. 2006..Thus, TLR-mediated regulation of B7-1 results in diverse cytokine profiles in C3H sub-strains, and that the interaction of MAM with different TLR(s) may differentially affect cytokine responses and ultimately, M. arthritidis disease...
Inflammatory lipoproteins purified from a toxigenic and arthritogenic strain of Mycoplasma arthritidis are dependent on Toll-like receptor 2 and CD14Akira Hasebe
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, 30 North 1900 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA
Infect Immun 75:1820-6. 2007..However, mass spectrometry of fragments revealed that the 41-kDa moiety, which binds to serum apolipoprotein A-1, had similarity with the recently described MlpD lipoprotein of M. arthritidis...
Characterization and partial purification of a macrophage-stimulating factor from Mycoplasma hominisMorgan R Peltier
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Medicine and Dentistry Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA
Am J Reprod Immunol 54:342-51. 2005..The mechanism by which M. hominis, an organism lacking cell walls, increases the production of proinflammatory cytokines is unknown...
A microbial TLR2 agonist imparts macrophage-activating ability to apolipoprotein A-1Akira Hasebe
Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, 30 North 1900 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84132, USA
J Immunol 177:4826-32. 2006....
Characterization of the macrophage-stimulating activity from Ureaplasma urealyticumMorgan R Peltier
Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Medicine and Dentistry Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, 125 Patterson Street, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA
Am J Reprod Immunol 57:186-92. 2007..Therefore, we performed a series of experiments to understand better the bacterial factor(s) that are responsible for the proinflammatory effects of U. urealyticum...
