Enhanced triglyceride clearance with intraperitoneal human acylation stimulating protein in C57BL/6 mice.
Acylation stimulating protein (ASP), a novel adipocyte-derived autocrine protein, stimulates triglyceride synthesis and glucose transport in vitro in human and murine adipocytes. In vitro, chylomicrons increase ASP and precursor complement C3 production in adipocytes. Furthermore, in vivo, ASP production from human adipose tissue correlates positively with triglyceride clearance postprandially....
متن کاملIntestinal permeability is reduced and IL-10 levels are increased in septic IL-6 knockout mice.
Sepsis is associated with increased intestinal permeability, but mediators and mechanisms are not fully understood. We examined the role of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 in sepsis-induced increase in intestinal permeability. Intestinal permeability was measured in IL-6 knockout (IL-6 -/-) and wild-type (IL-6 +/+) mice 16 h after induction of sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture or sham operatio...
متن کاملComparing serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in acute pyelonephritis versus acute cystitis in 6 months to 12 years old children
Background and Objectives: Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) is a common disorder in pediatrics and early diagnosis is important. However, in young children diagnosis is problematic. A problem is variety in sign and symptoms and for exact diagnosis in some case we need expensive modalities. Thus, new way is needed. IL-6 at last decades was preferred to UTI diagnosis and upper/lower involvement dif...
متن کاملCurcumin and Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Curcumin has been shown to have numerous cytotoxic effects on cancer stem cells (CSCs). This is due to its suppression of the release of cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and IL-1, which stimulate CSCs, and also to its effects at multiple sites along CSC pathways, such as Wnt, Notch, Hedgehog and FAK. In spite of its multiple actions targeting CSCs, curcumin has little toxicity a...
متن کاملSpecial issue on Interleukin-6 (IL-6)
Cytokines are essential modulators of the immune response. In the last decade there has been a number of cytokines considered targets for the development of biological therapies with the goal of blocking their activities and modulate the course of the immune response, primarily in the context of inflammatory diseases. IL-6 was first identified in the mid-1980s [1], but for almost two decades th...
