Differences in lipopolysaccharide- and lipoteichoic acid-induced cytokine/chemokine expressionSimon J Finney
Unit of Critical Care, Respiratory Science, NHLI, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Dovehouse Street, London SW3 6LY, UK
Intensive Care Med 38:324-32. 2012..To investigate differences in cytokine/chemokine release in response to lipoteichoic acid (LTA) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and contributing cellular mechanisms, in order to improve understanding of the pathogenesis of sepsis...
Thioredoxin: friend or foe in human disease?Anne Burke-Gaffney
Unit of Critical Care, National Heart and Lung Institute Division, Imperial College Faculty of Medicine, Dovehouse Street, London SW3 6LY, UK
Trends Pharmacol Sci 26:398-404. 2005..In this article, we review the role of Trx in human disease and relate this to its redox activity and biological properties, and discuss the development and use of therapies that either inhibit or augment Trx activity...
Butanol-extracted lipoteichoic acid induces in vivo leukocyte adhesionSimon J Finney
Unit of Critical Care, National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, Dovehouse Street, London, SW3 6LY, United Kingdom
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 364:831-7. 2007..01) increased leukocyte adhesion measured at 60 min. In conclusion, Bu-LTA with intact alanine residues promotes beta2-integrin-dependent leukocyte adhesion in vivo...
TNF-alpha potentiates C5a-stimulated eosinophil adhesion to human bronchial epithelial cells: a role for alpha 5 beta 1 integrinAnne Burke-Gaffney
Applied Pharmacology and Unit of Critical Care, National Heart and Lung Institute Division, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, Dovehouse Street, London, SW3 6LY, United Kingdom
J Immunol 168:1380-8. 2002..Fibronectin, associated with HBEC, may act as a ligand for alpha(5)beta(1) integrin. Dual regulation of eosinophil priming may prevent inappropriate activation of eosinophils in the circulation...
