TL;DR: This review analyzes recent knowledge on MMPs and their participation in angiogenesis through the modulation of the balance between pro- and anti-angiogenic factors and concludes that Matrix metalloproteinases participate in the disruption, tumor neovascularization, and subsequent metastasis.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that CXCR5 expression in T cells mediated correct T cell localization within TB granulomas, promoted efficient macrophage activation, protected against Mtb infection, and facilitated lymphoid follicle formation, and CD4+CX CR5+ T cells play a protective role in the immune response against TB.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in human patients with active TB and in nonhuman primate models of M. tuberculosis infection, neutrophils producing S100 proteins are dominant within the inflammatory lung granulomas seen during active TB.

TL;DR: The pharmacological regulation of the serotonergic system may modulate immune function and provide therapeutic alternatives for these diseases, including major depression, fibromyalgia, Alzheimer disease, psoriasis, arthritis, allergies, and asthma.

TL;DR: Dopamine (DA), a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS), has modulatory functions at the systemic level and is associated with such processes as respiratory burst, cytokine and antibody secretion, chemotaxis, apoptosis, and cytotoxicity.
