Interstitial Pneumonia in Dermatomyositis
Dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM) are types of autoimmune inflammatory muscle disease that mainly damage proximal limb muscles, with DM involving characteristic skin findings such as Gottron's sign and heliotrope eruption (Bohan & Peter, 1975a, 1975b). Interstitial pneumonia (IP) is often associated with DM/PM and is one of the important prognostic factors. Above all, rapidly progressi...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF DIFFERENT MEDIATORS ON FIBROBLAST PROLIFERATION
In this study, we have investigated the proliferative response of human dermal fibroblasts isolated from normal and psoriatic individuals to different cytokines. We found that IL-1, TNF (α) and EGF are stimulatory whereas IFN « and 1 both showed inhibitory activity on fibroblast proliferation. IL-6 a more recently described cytokine, showed no detectable effects on cell proliferation. Inve...
متن کاملEpimorphin expression in interstitial pneumonia
Epimorphin modulates epithelial morphogenesis in embryonic mouse organs. We previously suggested that epimorphin contributes to repair of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice via epithelium-mesenchyme interactions. To clarify the role of epimorphin in human lungs, we evaluated epimorphin expression and localization in normal lungs, lungs with nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), a...
متن کاملDesquamative interstitial pneumonia: relationship to interstitial fibrosis.
Patchefsky, A. S., Israel, H. L., Hoch, W. S., and Gordon, Gloria (1973). Thorax, 28, 680-693. Desquamative interstitial pneumonia: relationship to interstitial fibrosis. The clinical course and radiographic and pathological findings in 14 patients having the histological pattern of desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) have been studied. Four deaths occurred from cardiorespiratory failure ...
