Mariman, R. (author), Kremer, S.H.A. (author), Koning, F. (author), Nagelkerken, L. (author)Probiotic bacteria express a wide range of molecular structures that bind to receptors on innate immune cells and mediate health-promoting effects in the host. We have recently demonstrated in a colitis model that favourable effects of the probiotic mixture VSL#3 may in part be due to the suppression of intestinal chemokine expression. To obtain...article 2014

(author), TNO Defensie en Veiligheid TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)Activated microglia are found in a variety of neuroinflammatory disorders where they have attributed roles as effector as well as antigen-presenting cells (APC). Critical determinants for the multifaceted role of microglia are the differentiation potential of microglia and their mode of activation. In this study, we have investigated the effects...article 2007

(author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)Objective: Apolipoprotein CI (apoCI) is expressed in the liver and in macrophages, and has several roles in lipid metabolism. Since macrophage apoCI expression might affect macrophage lipid homeostasis and atherosclerotic lesion development locally in the arterial wall, we investigated the effect of both systemic and macrophage apoCI on...article 2007

They comprise (membrane-type) matrix metalloproteinases [(MT-)MMPs], serine proteases, cysteine cathepsins, and membrane-bound aminopeptidases. Specific inhibitors regulate them. Major roles in initiating angiogenesis have been attributed to MT1-matrix...article 2006

(author), TNO Kwaliteit van Leven (author)Objective - Emerging evidence suggests that human blood contains bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells that contribute to postnatal neovascularization. Clinical trials demonstrated that administration of BM-cells can enhance neovascularization. Most studies, however, used crude cell populations. Identifying the role of different...article 2005

(author), Gaubius Instituut TNO (author)In the arterial wall, scavenger receptor class A (SRA) is implicated in pathological lipid deposition. In contrast, in the liver, SRA is suggested to remove modified lipoproteins from the circulation, thereby protecting the body from their pathological action. The role of SRA on bone marrow-derived cells in lipid metabolism and atherogenesis was...article 2000

(author), van Berkel, T.J.C. (author)Scavenger receptors, which include various classes, play an important role in atherogenesis by mediating the unrestricted uptake of modified lipoproteins, resulting in the massive accumulation of cholesteryl esters. Because macrophage-derived foam cells are considered to be an important feature in early atherogenesis, we investigated the role of...article 2000

Induction of somatic mutations but not methylated DNA adducts in λlacZ transgenic mice by dichlorvosPletsa, V. (author), Steenwinkel, M.-J.S.T. (author), van Delft, J.H.M. (author), Baan, R.A. (author), Kyrtopoulos, S.A. (author), Centraal Instituut voor Voedingsonderzoek TNO (author)In order to examine the in vivo genotoxic activity of dichlorvos, λlacZ transgenic mice (Muta(TM)Mouse) were treated i.p. with single (4.4 or 11 mg/kg) or multiple (5x11 mg/kg) doses of this agent and sacrificed 4 h or 14 days post-treatment for DNA adduct measurement or mutant frequency analysis, respectively. Neither methylated DNA adducts nor...article 1999

(author)Bone is subject to continuous remodeling throughout life. The age-related loss of (trabecular) bone, leading to senile osteopenia, is mainly due to impaired bone formation. Osteoblasts (OB) and osteoclasts (OC) have been identified as playing a crucial role in the process of bone turnover, but the contribution made by their precursors is not...article 1994
