The Role of NK Cells in Pig-to-Human Xenotransplantation by Gisella Puga Yung, Mårten K. J. Schneider, Jörg D. Seebach

“…Specific molecular strategies to overcome human anti-pig NK cell responses include (1) blocking of the molecular events leading to recruitment (chemotaxis, adhesion, and transmigration), (2) expression of human MHC class I molecules on pECs that inhibit NK cells, and (3) elimination or blocking of pig ligands for activating human NK receptors. …”

Olopatadine Suppresses the Migration of THP-1 Monocytes Induced by S100A12 Protein

“…Recently, olopatadine has been shown to bind to S100A12 which is a member of the S100 family of calcium-binding proteins, and exerts multiple proinflammatory activities including chemotaxis for monocytes and neutrophils. In this study, we examined the possibility that the interaction of olopatadine with S100A12 inhibits the proinflammatory effects of S100A12. …”
