Detection of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-12 Serum Levels in Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis
Background: Periodontitis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory disease characterized by destruction of tooth-supporting tissues. Environmental and genetic factors as well as the immune system participate in this process. Recent studies have attempted to elucidate the role of cytokine networks involved in periodontal diseases. Objective: To assess and compare the levels of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-...
متن کاملIntegrated signals between IL-13, IL-4, and IL-5 regulate airways hyperreactivity.
In this investigation, we have examined the integrated relationship between IL-13, IL-4, and IL-5 for the development of airways hyperreactivity (AHR) in a model of asthma in BALB/c mice. Sensitization and aeroallergen challenge of both wild-type (WT) and IL-13 gene-targeted (IL-13-/-) mice induced allergic disease that was characterized by pulmonary eosinophilia and AHR to beta-methacholine. A...
متن کاملComparative roles of IL-4, IL-13, and IL-4Ralpha in dendritic cell maturation and CD4+ Th2 cell function.
IL-4 and IL-13 play key roles in Th2 immunity and asthma pathogenesis. Although the function of these cytokines is partially linked through their shared use of IL-4Ralpha for signaling, the interplay between these cytokines in the development of memory Th2 responses is not well delineated. In this investigation, we show that both IL-4 and IL-13 influence the maturation of dendritic cells (DC) i...
متن کاملIL-25 promotes Th2 bias by upregulating IL-4 and IL-10 expression of decidual γδT cells in early pregnancy
Decidual immune cells (DICs), consisting of both innate and adaptive immune cells, have a pivotal role in maintaining immune tolerance for normal pregnancy. Our previous study demonstrated that interleukin (IL)-25 stimulates the proliferation of decidual stromal cells (DSCs) in an autocrine manner. However, the role of IL-25 in functional regulation of DICs is largely unknown. Flow cytometry wa...
متن کاملCytokines (IL-17, IL-23, and IL-33) in Systemic lupus erythematosus in Trinidad and Tobago.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most common autoimmune disease. It is characterized by the presence of hundreds of autoantibodies against many organs and tissues, including the presence of a large number of autoantibodies, which are specific to self-antigens mainly of nuclear origin such as Smith antigen, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), anti-Sjögren’s syndrome-related antigen A and B (SS...
