Venoms frequently co-opt host immune responses, so study of their mode of action can provide insight into novel inflammatory pathways. Using bee and wasp venom responses as a model system, we investigated whether venoms contain CD1-presented antigens. Here, we show that venoms activate human T cells via CD1a proteins. Whereas CD1 proteins typically...
IL-33: an alarmin cytokine with crucial roles in innate immunity, inflammation and allergy.
Published in Current Opinion in Immunology
IL-33 is a nuclear cytokine from the IL-1 family constitutively expressed in epithelial barrier tissues and lymphoid organs, which plays important roles in type-2 innate immunity and human asthma. Recent studies indicate that IL-33 induces production of large amounts of IL-5 and IL-13 by group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), for initiation of alle...

Connexin Channel-Dependent Signaling Pathways in Inflammation
Published in Journal of Vascular Research
Inflammation is a highly regulated process with common but also specific characteristics in each tissue affected. Recruitment of leukocytes from the blood to the injured tissue is an important early step in the inflammatory cascade. This review highlights the role of connexins (Cxs) in the regulation of both acute and chronic inflammatory processes...
