Branch-specific sialylation of IgG-Fc glycans by ST6Gal-I.

18 Oct 2009 Sialylated forms of the Fc fragment of immunoglobulin G, produced by the human alpha2-6 sialyltransferase ST6Gal-I, were identified as potent anti-inflammatory mediators in a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis and are potentially the active ... Read more...

[Extraintestinal manifestations in inflammatory bowel disease]

17 Oct 2009 Extraintestinal manifestations are relatively common in chronic inflammatory bowel disease and affect joints, skin, eyes and bile ducts. The most frequent rheumatologic manifestations are peripheral arthritis and axial arthropathies. Erythema ... Read more...

Increased expression of IL-33 in severe asthma: evidence of expression by airway smooth muscle cells.

13 Oct 2009 IL-33, a new member of the IL-1 cytokine family, promotes Th2 inflammation, but evidence on the implications of this cytokine in asthma is lacking. IL-33 would be mainly expressed by structural cells, but whether proinflammatory cytokines modulate ... Read more...
