Hormones, Neurotransmitters, and T-Cell Development in Health and Disease
Author: Wilson Savino
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2889630269
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Thymus physiology and T-cell homeostasis are controlled by hormones, neurotransmitters, cytokines and other factors that modulate stromal-cell interactions, influence thymocyte development and selection processes, survival and migration, between others. In the context of this Research Topic on “Hormones, Neurotransmitters, and T cell development in Health and Disease”, authors discuss the control of thymus physiology by glucocorticoids (GC), growth hormone (GH) and sex hormones, norepinephrine (NE) and other molecules that seem impact upon thymocyte/microenvironmental interactions, like galectin-3 (Gal-3) ephrins (Eph), extracellular matrix proteins and integrins (like VLA-5). Moreover, some of them draw attention to about how diverse maturation steps and/or the interactions between stromal and thymocytes can be affected in pathological states like diabetes or infections. As shown schematically in the figure, this topic highlight the following notions: 1) GH shows counterregulatory effects against GC rather than influence directly T cell homeostasis; 2) Interactions between sex hormones and noradrenergic secretion may influence thymus homeostasis and involution; 3) Gal-3 are crucial to thymocyte-stromal cell interactions and influence thymic architecture. Moreover, Gal-3 seem to be involved in the regulation of steroidogenic pathway; 4) Ephrins are crucial to assembly the thymic connections between thymocytes and the epithelial network, but have a relative importance in supporting normal thymopoyesis; 5) Pathologic situations like diabetes, or infectious diseases caused by parasites or bacteria alters the normal development of T-lymphocytes and might influence tolerance process. DN: double-negative (CD4-CD8) thymocytes; DP: double-positive (CD4+CD8+) thymocytes; SP: simple-positive thymocytes; LT: T lymphocyte; FN: fibronectin; PVS: peri-vascular space; BM: bone marrow; DBT: diabetes; Eph: Ephrins.

Muscle Gene Therapy
Author: Dongsheng Duan
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 144191207X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Muscle disease represents an important health threat to the general population. There is essentially no cure. Gene therapy holds great promise to correct the genetic defects and eventually achieve full recovery in these diseases. Significant progresses have been made in the field of muscle gene therapy over the last few years. The development of novel gene delivery vectors has substantially enhanced specificity and efficiency of muscle gene delivery. The new knowledge on the immune response to viral vectors has added new insight in overcoming the immune obstacles. Most importantly, the field has finally moved from small experimental animal models to human patients. This book will bring together the leaders in the field of muscle gene transfer to provide an updated overview on the progress of muscle gene therapy. It will also highlight important clinical applications of muscle gene therapy.
