HMGB1 enhances the protumoral activities of M2 macrophages by a RAGE-dependent mechanism
(2016)
The monocyte-macrophage lineage shows a high degree of diversity and plasticity. Once they infiltrate tissues,they may acquire two main functional phenotypes, being known as the classically activated type 1 macrophages ...
Skewed signaling through the receptor for advanced glycation end-products alters the proinflammatory profile of tumor-associated macrophages
(2018)
Tumors are complex tissues composed of variable amounts of both non-cellular components (matrix proteins) and a multitude of stromal cell types, which are under an active cross-talk with tumor cells. Tumor-associated ...

Background: The clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been related to the presence of CagA protein. This protein is highly polymorphic and its oncogenic ability depends on the number and type ...
The emerging role of the receptor for advanced glycation end products on innate immunity
(2014)
Cells from innate immune system are activated by the engagement of germ-line encoded patternrecognition receptors (PRRs) in response to the microbial insult. These receptors are able to recognize either the presence of ...
Statins and portal hypertension: A new pharmacological challenge
(2012)
