The inflammasomes
by Couillin, Isabelle, Pétrilli, Virginie, Martinon, Fabio
fromPIR (Series)
The inflammasome was first described in 2002 as a molecular complex activating proinflammatory caspases and therefore regulating the maturation and biological activities of cytokines such as IL-1#xF062; and IL-18. This finding was substantiated by the identification of several m…
This book presents recent developments and research discoveries in the areas of inflammation and related chronic diseases. The first part of the book provides an introduction to inflammation with special reference to aspects that can be modified by nutrition and physical activit…

Although inflammation is one of the body's first responses to infection, overactive immune responses can cause chronic inflammatory diseases. Long-term low-grade inflammation has also been identified as a risk factor for other diseases. Diet, immunity and inflammation provides a…

Bradykinin is a type of plasma hormone that causes blood vessels to dilate, resulting in a drop in blood pressure, the contraction of muscles in the lungs, intestines, and uterus, and pain. The Kinin System reviews the molecular biology of the kinins through their roles in a com…

Multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a heterogeneous population of cells which reside in a variety of tissues. They differentiate into several mesodermal lineages, secrete a multitude of trophic factors and contribute to tissue homeostasis. MSCs are able to exert immuno…
