The purpose of this study was to explore the role of cyclin E and c fos in Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) induced gastric precancerosis. The expression of cyclin E and c fos in mucosa of gastric antrum was determined by RT PCR and immunohistochemistry staining in Mongolian gerbil with H. pylori induced gastric precancerosis. Cyclin E mRNA levels were increased 2 2 fold 25 weeks ( P

The brain pericyte is a unique and indispensable part of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and contributes to several pathological processes in traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which pericytes are regulated in the damaged brain are largely unknown. Here, we show that the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) induces the appearance of CD11b+ pericytes after TBI. These CD11b+ pericyte subsets are characterized by increased permeability and pro-inflammatory profiles compared to CD11b- pericytes. Moreover, histones from NETs by Dectin-1 facilitate CD11b induction in brain pericytes in PKC-c-Jun dependent manner, resulting in neuroinflammation and BBB dysfunction after TBI. These data indicate that neutrophil-NET-pericyte and histone-Dectin-1-CD11b are possible mechanisms for the activation and dysfunction of pericytes. Targeting NETs formation and Dectin-1 are promising means of treating TBI.
