Chemokines are a superfamily of small chemotactic cytokines, which interact with their G‐
protein‐coupled receptors. These interactions regulate multiple physiological functions …

Interleukin 17–producing T helper cells (T H-17 cells) are important in experimental
autoimmune encephalomyelitis, but their route of entry into the central nervous system …

Epidemiological data, detailed molecular studies and recent genome-wide association
studies strongly suggest that ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are related …

Now available in a thoroughly revised Twelfth Edition, Wintrobe's Clinical Hematology
continues to be an industry leader with its ability to correlate basic science with the clinical …

Migration and trafficking receptors of Th17 cells to mucosal tissues have been unclear. We
report that Th17 cells preferentially migrate to the intestine and associated lymphoid tissues …

Psoriasis is a common immune-mediated chronic inflammatory skin disorder, but the
mechanisms of pathogenesis are still poorly understood. IL-23 is expressed in psoriatic skin …

Chemokines are essential for homeostasis and activation of the immune system. The
chemokine ligand/receptor pairing CCL20/CCR6 is interesting because these molecules …

Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium causes acute inflammatory diarrhea in humans.
Flagella contribute to intestinal inflammation, but the mechanism remains unclear since most …

IL-17-producing T cells (Th17) have been identified in mice as a distinct lineage of CD4+ T
helper cells. Since their discovery, efforts have been made in characterizing human Th17 …

Although hypothermia is one of the most robust neuroprotectants clinically available, its
underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Through microarray gene expression analysis, we …
