متن کاملMacrophage activation, chronic inflammation and gastrointestinal disease.
The involvement of macrophages in chronic inflammatory conditions has been the subject of considerable experimental investigation in recent years. Macrophages are able to secrete a wide range of biologically active compounds. They are important in the control of infection and, through their immunological and non-immunological receptors, macrophages interact with other cell types and a wide vari...

متن کاملInflammation and Cancer II. Role of chronic inflammation and cytokine gene polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal malignancy.
It is well established that cancer arises in chronically inflamed tissue, and this is particularly notable in the gastrointestinal tract. Classic examples include Helicobacter pylori-associated gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and inflammatory bowel disease-associated colorectal cancer. There is growing evidence to suggest that this association is not coincidental but may indeed be cau...
متن کاملChronic infl ammation and gastrointestinal cancer
Chronic infl ammation has been identifi ed as an important risk factor in the development of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract cancers, and the underlying molecular mechanisms have been studied extensively. Chronic infl ammation is able to trigger cellular events to promote malignant transformation of normal epithelial cells in the GI tract to cancer. Host infl ammation responses in carcinogenesi...
