GPI — IL4
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Gratchev et al., Skin Pharmacol Appl Skin Physiol 2001
(Skin Diseases) :
Among polarized APC, effector macrophages are classically activated by mediators such as IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha or LPS ( M phi 1 ), while M
phi 2 are alternatively
activated by
IL-4 , IL-10 or PGE ( 2 )
Jaffar et al., J Immunol 2007
(Asthma...) :
In vitro studies showed that
PGI ( 2 ) did not
affect IL-4 and IL-5 production or the level of IFN-gamma by the T cells
von Kleist et al., Immunobiology 1990
:
LPS, IL6, and
IL4 caused induction of up to 15 % Fo+ and Ia+ M
phi after a 4 d culture period
Marcinkiewicz et al., Cell Immunol 1993
:
Unexpectedly,
IL-4 release was strongly
inhibited by exogenous
PGI2 , while remaining unaffected by PGE2
Chakkalath et al., J Immunol 1994
:
Results indicated that L. major infected M
phi enhanced the proliferation and
IL-4 secretion of Th2 T cells in response to stimulation with their cognate Ag
Sasaki et al., Blood 1997
(Hematologic Neoplasms...) :
Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate ( PMA ),
interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-3, IL-6, granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor ( GM-CSF ), thrombopoietin (TPO), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)
enhanced PGI2-R mRNA expression
Kodelja et al., Immunobiology 1997
:
However, well characterized M phi subsets such as IFN-gamma induced, classically activated ( ca ) M
phi or
IL-4/glucocorticoid induced , alternatively activated ( aa ) M phi have not been thoroughly examined for a positive or negative association with angiogenesis
