Tolerogenic versus Inflammatory Activity of Peripheral Blood Monocytes and Dend...
Carvalheiro, T; Rodrigues, A; Lopes, A; Velada, I; Ribeiro, A; Martinho, A; Inês, L; Pereira da Silva, JA; Pais, ML; Paiva, AAbnormalities in monocytes and in peripheral blood dendritic cells (DC) subsets have been reported in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We aim to clarify the tolerogenic or inflammatory role of these cells based on ICOSL or IFN-α and chemokine mRNA expression, respectively, after cell purification. The study included 18 SLE patients with active disease (ASLE), 25 with inactive disease (ISLE), and 30 healthy c...

Henriques, A; Inês, L; Carvalheiro, T; Couto, M; Andrade, A; Pedreiro, S; Laranjeiro, P; Morgado, JM; Pais, ML; Pereira da Silva, JA; Paiva, AWith the purpose of contributing to a better knowledge of the APCs functional activity in SLE, we evaluated the distribution and functional ability to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-12) of peripheral blood (PB) monocytes and DC (tDC), particularly myeloid (mDC) and CD14(-/low)CD16(+) DC subpopulations comparing them with those obtained from healthy individuals. The study was perfo...
