IL-8

[Cell Death & Disease] The PERK pathway inhibits global protein synthesis while allowing translation of specific mRNAs, such as the ATF4 transcription factor.

[Lung] Researchers investigated β2-adrenoceptor-mediated signaling pathways involved in the production of two pro-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8, in 16HBE14o- human bronchial epithelia.

[ACS Applied Materials & interfaces] The human lung A549 cells cultured on both stiff and soft polyurethane soft dendritic colloids membranes were found to be viable, capable of supporting the air–liquid interface cell culture, and maintained barrier integrity.

[Biomedical Materials] The authors demonstrated that the proliferation of keratinocytes and their secretion of cytokines and growth factors could be activated through appropriate electrical stimulation to benefit skin wound healing.

[Scientific Reports] Investigators analyzed expression of DNAM-1 in leukemic cells of AML patients. Interaction of DNAM-1 with its ligands CD112 and CD155 induced release of the immunomodulatory cytokines IL-6, IL-8 IL-10 and TNF-α by AML cells and DNAM-1 expression correlated with a more differentiated phenotype.

[Archives of Toxicology] In vitro studies, such as DMPO immune-spin trapping assay, and dihydroethidium fluorescence assay on A549 and BEAS-2B cells demonstrated increased oxidative stress due to cobalt exposure.
