Decreased interleukin 27 expression is associated with active uveitis in Behçet’s disease
INSTRUCTION Interleukin 27 (IL-27) is an important regulator of the proinflammatory T-cell response. In this study, we investigated its role in the pathogenesis of Behçet's disease (BD). METHODS IL-27 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was examined by performing RT-PCRs. Cytokine levels in sera or supernatants of PBMCs, naïve CD4(+) T cells, dendritic cells (DCs) and DC/T cell...
متن کاملDecreased Cardiac Expression of Heat Shock Protein 27 is Associated with Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Rheumatic Heart Disease.
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) between rheumatic heart disease (RHD) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and RHD patients without AF, and its efficacy in predicting the occurrence of AF in RHD patients. METHODS Ninety-five patients were enrolled in our study, including 60 RHD patients with AF, and 35 RHD patients without A...

Regarding this, the present study was conducted to illuminate this relationship. Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, 3,066 participants employed in a study conducted by Azizi et al. aged ≥ 20 years were subjected to thyro...
متن کاملEvaluation of Interleukin17and Interleukin 23 expression in patients with active and latent tuberculosis infection
Objective(s): Tuberculosis is one of the most important infectious diseases with high mortality rates worldwide, especially in developing countries. Interleukin17 (IL-17) is an important acquired immunity cytokine, which is mainly produced by CD4+TH17 cells. It can recruit neutrophils and macrophages to the infected site in the lungs. IL-23 is one of the most important inducers of IL-17. In the...
متن کاملHigh Interleukin 27 Production is Associated with Early Clinical Stage and Localized Disease in Patients with Melanoma
BACKGROUND The immune response in patients with melanoma is an important focus of research due to the tumor's resistance and immunotherapy possibilities. IL-27 is one of the cytokines with antitumor properties. The role of IL-27 in the pathogenesis of melanoma is still unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the association between serum IL-27 levels and the clinical parameters of melanom...
