Increased circulating T‑helper 22 cells in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Recently, the newly determined interleukin (IL)‑22‑producing T-helper (Th) 22 cell has been implicated to be involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, its role in the pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has yet to be elucidated. A total of 30 patients with DCM and 30 healthy controls were enrolled in the present study. The levels of Th22, Th17 and Th1 cells in the p...

conclusions the hormonal levels were low in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. however, the prognostic significance of different hormonal deficiencies was not clear in our study populations who were receiving standard therapies for heart failure and had a relatively stable clinical condition. results except for testosterone level, the levels of gh, igf-1, t3, and t4 concentrations...
متن کاملIncreased circulating cytokines in patients with myocarditis and cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES To elucidate the potential role of cytokines in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy and myocarditis. BACKGROUND Experimental studies show that certain cytokines depress myocardial contractility and that tumour necrosis factor-alpha plays an important part in the pathogenesis of myocardial injury in animal models of viral and autoimmune myocarditis. METHODS Plasma interleukin 1-alp...
متن کاملAqueous 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 ...
