  • Genetics of Interleukin 1 Receptor-Like 1 in Immune and Inflammatory Diseases
    Current Genomics, 2010, 11, 591-606 591 Genetics of Interleukin 1 Receptor-Like 1 in Immune and Inflammatory Diseases Loubna Akhabir and Andrew Sandford* Department of Medicine, University of British Columbia, UBC James Hogg Research Centre, Providence Heart + Lung Institute, Room 166, St. Paul's Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC V6Z 1Y6, Canada Abstract: Interleukin 1 receptor-like 1 (IL1RL1) is gaining in recognition due to its involvement in immune/inflamma- tory disorders. Well-designed animal studies have shown its critical role in experimental allergic inflammation and human in vitro studies have consistently demonstrated its up-regulation in several conditions such as asthma and rheumatoid ar- thritis. The ligand for IL1RL1 is IL33 which emerged as playing an important role in initiating eosinophilic inflammation and activating other immune cells resulting in an allergic phenotype. An IL1RL1 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was among the most significant results of a genome-wide scan inves- tigating eosinophil counts; in the same study, this SNP associated with asthma in 10 populations. The IL1RL1 gene resides in a region of high linkage disequilibrium containing interleukin 1 receptor genes as well as in- terleukin 18 receptor and accessory genes. This poses a challenge to researchers interested in deciphering genetic associa- tion signals in the region as all of the genes represent interesting candidates for asthma and allergic disease. The IL1RL1 gene and its resulting soluble and receptor proteins have emerged as key regulators of the inflammatory proc- ess implicated in a large variety of human pathologies We review the function and expression of the IL1RL1 gene.

  • Interleukin-18 As a Therapeutic Target in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure
    Interleukin-18 as a Therapeutic Target in Acute Myocardial Infarction and Heart Failure Laura C O’Brien,1 Eleonora Mezzaroma,2,3,4 Benjamin W Van Tassell,2,3,4 Carlo Marchetti,2,3 Salvatore Carbone,2,3 Antonio Abbate,1,2,3 and Stefano Toldo2,3 1Department of Physiology and Biophysics, 2Victoria Johnson Research Laboratories, and 3Virginia Commonwealth University Pauley Heart Center, School of Medicine, and 4Pharmacotherapy and Outcome Sciences, School of Pharmacy, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, Virginia, United States of America Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a proinflammatory cytokine in the IL-1 family that has been implicated in a number of disease states. In animal models of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), pressure overload, and LPS-induced dysfunction, IL-18 regulates cardiomy- ocyte hypertrophy and induces cardiac contractile dysfunction and extracellular matrix remodeling. In patients, high IL-18 levels correlate with increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and with a worse prognosis in patients with established CVD. Two strategies have been used to counter the effects of IL-18:IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), a naturally occurring protein, and a neutralizing IL-18 antibody. Recombinant human IL-18BP (r-hIL-18BP) has been investigated in animal studies and in phase I/II clinical trials for psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis. A phase II clinical trial using a humanized monoclonal IL-18 antibody for type 2 diabetes is ongoing. Here we review the literature regarding the role of IL-18 in AMI and heart failure and the evidence and challenges of using IL-18BP and blocking IL-18 antibodies as a therapeutic strategy in patients with heart disease.

  • Interleukin-18 in Health and Disease

Upon stimulation with Ag plus IL-12, naïve T cells develop into IL-18 receptor (IL-18R) expressing Th1 cells, which increase IFN-γ production in response to IL-18 stimulation. Therefore, IL-12 is a commitment factor that induces the development of Th1 cells. In contrast, IL-18 is a proinflammatory cytokine that facilitates type 1 responses. However, IL-18 without IL-12 but with IL-2, stimulates NK cells, CD4+ NKT cells, and established Th1 cells, to produce IL-3, IL-9, and IL-13. Furthermore, together with IL-3, IL-18 stimulates mast cells and basophils to produce IL-4, IL-13, and chemical mediators such as histamine. Therefore, IL-18 is a cytokine that stimulates various cell types and has pleiotropic functions. IL-18 is a member of the IL-1 family of cytokines. IL-18 demonstrates a unique function by binding to a specific receptor expressed on various types of cells.

    HEALTH & ENVIRONMENT Seminar Series 2011 Preclinical and translational imaging in oncology, neurology and immunology Bernd Pichler, University of Tübingen, Germany AIT Austrian Institute of Technology May 4, 2011, 15:30-16:30 Tech Gate, Conference Room 0.3 (Ground Floor) Donau-City Str. 1, 1220 Vienna Abstract Preclinical imaging, and specifically molecular imaging methods such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) as well as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), experience enormous attention in the realm of basic biomedical and translational research. Modern imaging technologies hold a great potential to expand our current knowledge in many life science areas. Especially the prospect to obtain more detailed information in the field of oncology, neurology, immunology and infectious diseases in combination with the research of new and highly specific targets and biomarkers significantly enhances preclinical and translational research. The lecture will provide an overview of the strengths of different imaging technologies and will focus on scientific preclinical applications in oncology, neurology and immunology. It will also reveal our approaches and activities in biomarker and radiotracer development. Further, it will review the current state-of-the-art of combined PET/MRI for multiparametric imaging in basic science and clinical diagnostic. Biosketch Prof. Bernd Pichler is Chair of the Department of Preclinical Imaging and Radiopharmacy, Clinic of Radiology, University of Tübingen, Germany. Dr. Pichler studied electrical engineering with a focus on biomedical engineering and cybernetics at the Technical University of Munich. He finished his diploma thesis in 1997 at the Max-Planck-Institute for Physics, Munich and the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Technical University of Munich, in the field of detector development for small animal positron emission tomography.
