Aqueous Humor Levels of Soluble Fas and Fas-ligand in Patients with Primary Open Angle and Pseudoex-foliation Glaucoma
Background: Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness and is usually associated with elevated intraocular pressure. In patients with primary open angle glau-coma the number of trabecular meshwork cells is decreased. Death of the trabecular meshwork cells may be a result of apoptosis. Objective: To investigate the aqueous humor levels of soluble Fas (sFas) and Fas-Ligand (sFasL) in ...
متن کاملIL-33 levels differentiate tuberculous pleurisy from malignant pleural effusions
Tuberculous pleural effusions (TPEs) and malignant pleural effusions (MPEs) are difficult to differentiate between in certain clinical situations. Interleukin (IL)-33 is a cytokine that participates in inflammatory responses and may have a role in pleural effusions. The present study aimed to investigate the concentrations and potential differential significance of IL-33 in patients with TPE an...

متن کاملPhysical training modulates proinflammatory cytokines and the soluble Fas/soluble Fas ligand system in patients with chronic heart failure.
OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the effects of physical training on circulating proinflammatory cytokines and the soluble apoptosis mediators Fas (sFas) and Fas ligand (sFasL) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). BACKGROUND Recent investigations have shown an overexpression of circulating proinflammatory cytokines and soluble apoptosis mediators in patients with CHF, which may be...
متن کاملSoluble FaS and FaS-ligand PlaSma levelS in Heart tranSPlant reciPientS treated witH neoral or tacrolimuS
The plasma levels of soluble antiapoptotic Fas (sFas) and proapoptotic Fas-ligand (sFasl) proteins were studied in heart transplant recipients at one-month follow-up. The patients were treated with Neoral (n=18) or Tacrolimus (n=12) and concomitant immunosuppressive drugs. The sFas and sFasl levels were detected by ElISA. The values were related to treatment with Neoral or Tacrolimus in stable ...
