Correlation of interleukin-2 and soluble interleukin-2 receptor with clinical activity of multiple sclerosis.
Concentrations of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R) in serum and CSF samples were measured in 63 patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) to evaluate their usefulness as markers of disease activity. CSF concentrations of IL-2 and sIL-2R were significantly higher in MS relapse compared with MS patients in remission or with control subjects. These concentrations correlated with...
متن کاملEffect of Vitamin D treatment on Interleukin-2 and Interleukin-4 Genes expression in Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of central nervous system. The etiology of MS is slightly known, but genetic and environmental factors are reported. Vitamin D regulates gene expression and affects target cell functions. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression variation of IL-2 and IL-4 genes under vitamin D supplementation in patients with mult...

متن کاملClinical value of soluble interleukin-2 receptor in infectious complications.
In this study, we investigated serum-soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2r) and neopterin (NPT) levels in five patients with severe postoperative infections. A total of 25 synchronous determinations of sIL-2r and NPT were performed. A marked increase in sIL-2r and NPT levels was observed, and the increase in sIL-2r was significantly correlated to that of NPT which is a marker of macrophage act...
متن کاملSoluble interleukin-2 receptor α and interleukin-2 serum levels in patients with basal cell carcinoma
INTRODUCTION Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is an immunogenic neoplasm and the imbalance in Th1/Th2 cytokines expression seems to play the major role in pathogenesis and clinical behaviour of the tumour. AIM To investigate the association of soluble interleukin 2α receptor (sIL-2Rα) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) serum concentrations with BCC. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study involved 110 individuals w...
