Newest firstGraft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a secondary complication of bone marrow transplantation, leads to the development of a systemic inflammatory illness in the host, resulting in high mortality and morbidity. Current therapies lack prophylactic effectiveness and often fail to achieve an optimal immunological balance between inflammation and immunosuppression. In this study, we investigated the effects of palmitoylet…
Open article record in new tab ↗Regulatory T cells (Tregs) have multiple roles in the tumor microenvironment (TME), which maintain a balance between autoimmunity and immunosuppression. This research aimed to investigate the interaction between cancer stemness and Regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the breast cancer tumor immune microenvironment. Breast cancer stemness was calculated using one-class logistic regression. Twelve main cell clusters were…
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with T cell activation, but no studies have examined the combined effects of T cell activation and deficits in T regulatory (Treg) cells on the severity of acute phase MDD. Using flow cytometry, we determined the percentage and median fluorescence intensity of CD69, CD71, CD40L, and HLADR-bearing CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ cells, and cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1), CD152…
Open article record in new tab ↗The generation of functional regulatory T cells (Tregs) is essential to keep tissue homeostasis and restore healthy immune responses in many biological and inflammatory contexts. Cannabinoids have been pointed out as potential therapeutic tools for several diseases. Dendritic cells (DCs) express the endocannabinoid system, including the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. However, how cannabinoids might regulate fu…
Chronic inflammation is considered to be a silent killer because it is the underlying cause of a wide range of clinical disorders, from cardiovascular to neurological diseases, and from cancer to obesity. In addition, there are over 80 different types of debilitating autoimmune diseases for which there are no cure. Currently, the drugs that are available to suppress chronic inflammation are either ineffective or o…
Background Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are getting increased attention as one of the main regulatory cells of the immune system. They are induced at sites of inflammation and can potently suppress T cell functions. In the current study, we demonstrate how activation of TRPV1 vanilloid receptors can trigger MDSCs, which in turn, can inhibit inflammation and hepatitis. Methodology/principal findings Pol…
