GH has been of significant scientific interest for decades because of its capacity to
dramatically change physiological growth parameters. Furthermore, GH interacts with a …

Neuroendocrine hormones such as growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) have been
demonstrated to accelerate the recovery of the immune response after chemotherapy and …

CCL18 and CXCL12 are homeostatic chemokines with high constitutive concentrations in
serum. Elevated levels of CCL18 have been described in various diseases including …

Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling is transduced by the mitogen-activated
protein kinase (MAPK) cascade and the signal transducers and activators of transcription …

The chemokine CXCL12 induces prolonged focal adhesion kinase (FAK) phosphorylation
and sustained proadhesive responses in progenitor bone-marrow (BM) B cells, but not in …

Aims: We address the question of the expression and the role of the growth hormone/insulin-
like growth factor (GH/IGF) axis in the thymus. Methods: Using RT-qPCR, the expression …

The chemokine eotaxin/CCL11 is an important mediator of leukocyte migration, but its effect
on inflammatory cytokine signaling has not been explored. In this study, we find that CCL11 …

CXCR4 is expressed by basal keratinocytes (KCs), but little is known about its function in
inflamed skin. We crossed K14-Cre and CXCR4 flox/flox (f/f) transgenic mice, resulting in …

Background The use of bone marrow-derived human multipotent stromal cells (hMSC) in
cell-based therapies has dramatically increased in recent years, as researchers have …

Emerging evidences suggest the impact of autophagy on differentiation but the underlying
molecular links between metabolic restructuring and autophagy during monocyte …
