..."Rather, high AD female monolayers had increased expression of CCL5, a β chemokine, that is induced by the presence of C. jejuni, which is known to lead to both epithelial damage and inflammation in vitro51,52. CCL5 is reportedly elevated in inflammatory bowel diseases, and blocking the CCL5/CCR5 axis through CCR5 antagonists can effectively reduce inflammation in mouse models of disease53. This highlights the importance of accounting for both sex and psychological state when evaluating epithelial responses, as chemokine and cytokine profiles will vary based on host demographics"...
