Description
Summary:Additionally, DAMPs can initiate release of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), which when bound to its receptors recruits cytosolic adaptor proteins to form complex I (which contains RIPK1) and complex II. [...]local elevation of calcium ions allows of fusion of the aforementioned vesicles with the plasma membrane to form the repair patch (i.e., a “plug and patch” technique). First described by Jia et al., rhMG53 administration during rodent models of acute lung injury (ALI) resulted in preserved tissue architecture and pulmonic function. While this study demonstrated the MG53 is protective against over-ventilation induced ALI, and is generated by alveolar epithelial cells as well, it was unclear if rhMG53 administration resulted in all membranes being repaired, or if individual cell populations were being targeted.
