study the effects of low level laser diode on no production and healing of diabetic and cortisone acetate and normal wounded sd rats
nitric oxide (no) is a small molecule synthesized by most of mammalian cells with diverse biological activities including vasodilatation, host defense and wound healing. impaired wound healing is a common occurrence among diabetics and patients receiving glucocorticoid therapy. on the other hand the application of laser in biomedical area have been increased. thus, the current studies were desi...
15 صفحه اولInhibition of MAP kinase kinase prevents cytokine and prostaglandin E2 production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated monocytes.
Activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway has been shown to occur in monocytes following stimulation with LPS. However, the importance of this event for monocyte function is not clear. To address this issue, we used the novel MAP/ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitor, U0126. Stimulation of monocytes with LPS resulted in activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) ...
متن کاملDifferential effects of malignant mesothelioma cells on THP-1 monocytes and macrophages.
Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a highly fatal tumor arising from inner body membranes, whose extensive growth is facilitated by its week immunogenicity and by its ability to blunt the immune response which should arise from the huge mass of leukocytes typically infiltrating this tumor. It has been reported that the inflammatory infiltrate found in MM tissues is characterized by a high prevalenc...
متن کاملHepcidin Induces M1 Macrophage Polarization in Monocytes or THP-1 Derived Macrophages
Background: Macrophage polarization plays a critical role in determining the inflammatory states. Hepcidin is a key negative regulator of iron homeostasis and functions. Although hepcidin has been shown to affect ferroportin expression in macrophages, whether it affects macrophage polarization is still largely unknown. Objective: To address whether hepcidin ind...
متن کاملEffects of an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor on cytokine production by human monocytes/macrophages.
It has been reported that the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor simvastatin does not always effectively lower plasma LDL. This drug acts to monocytes/macrophages directly and inhibits cholesterol ester accumulation in these cells. However cytokine production in macrophages when simvastatin was administrated has not been described. In this study, we examined whether simvastatin affects cytokine produc...
