IL-21 Modulates Release of Proinflammatory Cytokines in LPS-Stimulated Macrophages through Distinct Signaling Pathways by Su-nan Li, Wei Wang, Shou-peng Fu, Jian-fa Wang, Hong-mei Liu, Shan-shan Xie, Bing-run Liu, Yang Li, Qing-kang Lv, Zhi-qiang Li, Wen-jing Xue, Bing-xu Huang, Wei Chen, Ju-xiong Liu

“…Western blot analysis showed that IL-21 clearly inhibited ERK and IκBα phosphorylation and NF-κB translocation in LPS-stimulated macrophages, but it increased STAT3 phosphorylation. Flow cytometric and Western blot analysis showed that IL-21 decreased M1 macrophages surface markers expression of CD86, iNOS, and TLR4 in LPS-stimulated cells. …”

Conflitti del lavoro, lavoro in conflitto. Trasformazioni aziendali globali e nuove forme di fragilità e precarizzazione by Fulvia D’Aloisio

“…As some scholars think, the ‘old fashioned’ conflict has not totally disappeared, rather it has changed its sense and value, flowing towards a different configuration. The work reduction, started in Melfi from 2011, when the factory began the decline of its production and resorting to layoffs, has radically changed the work condition and the perception of the future. …”
