HIF-1α and VEGF Immunophenotypes as Potential Biomarkers in the Prognosis and Evaluation of Treatment Efficacy of Atherosclerosis: A Systematic Review of the Literature by Dimitra P. Vageli, Panagiotis G. Doukas, Dimitrios Georgiou, Michailangelos P. Prokopiou, Nefeli E. Ladaki, Androniki Papadopoulou, Sotirios G. Doukas, Konstantina Zacharouli, Konstantinos P. Makaritsis, Maria Ioannou

“…Results: We included 34 original studies investigating 650 human specimens, 21 different cell lines, and 9 animal models. Increased HIF-1α in vascular smooth muscle cells, macrophages, or endothelial cells, under hypoxia, chronic loss of nitric oxide (NO), or reduced micro ribonucleic acid (miRNA)-17 and miR-20, is associated with the upregulation of pro-inflammatory molecules, such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), increased migration inhibitory factor of macrophages, glycolytic flux, lipid accumulation, necroptosis via miR-383, and adverse effects in atherosclerosis and plaque vulnerability. …”

High risk of asthma among early teens is associated with quantitative differences in mite and cat allergen specific IgE and IgG4: a modified Th2 related antibody response revisited... by Thomas A. Platts-Mills, Behnam Keshavarz, Jeffrey M. Wilson, Sheryl L. Rifas-Shiman, Samuel M. Ailsworth, Joanne E. Sordillo, Lisa Workman, Martin Chapman, Jonas Lidholm, Emily Oken, Diane R. Gold

“…Summary: Background: Although proteins derived from cats are an important contributor to indoor allergen exposure in relation to asthma, it has been known for at least twenty years that some children who live in a house with a cat can become clinically tolerant to these animals. In 2001, we reported that children exposed to high levels of cat allergens made high levels of IgG4 antibodies to the cat allergen Fel d 1, and we coined the term “a modified Th2 response”. …”
