Interleukin-18 does not modulate the acute-phase response.
IL-18 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine of the IL-1 family and it induces IL-1, TNF, and IL-6, all of which are endogenous pyrogens. The pyrogenic properties of recombinant IL-18 were studied in a rabbit model of fever. rIL-18 did not cause fever when injected intravenously into rabbits. Furthermore, the ability of rIL-18 to modulate other components of the acute-phase response was assessed. rIL-1...
متن کاملInterleukin-6 and the acute phase response.
systemic reaction characterized by fever, leukocytosis, increase in erythrocyte sedimentation rate, increases in Leucocytosis secretion of ACTH and glucocorticoids, activation of Complement activat complement and clotting cascades, decreases in serum levels of iron and zinc, a negative nitrogen balance, and by dramatic changes in the concentration of some plasma ,l' proteins. These proteins are...
متن کاملAcute exercise does not induce an acute phase response (APR) in Standardbred trotters.
The purpose of the study was to investigate whether acute strenuous exercise (1600- to 2500-m race) would elicit an acute phase response (APR) in Standardbred trotters. Blood levels of several inflammatory markers [serum amyloid A (SAA), haptoglobin, fibrinogen, white blood cell count (WBC), and iron], muscle enzymes [creatinine kinase (CK) and aspartate transaminase (AST)], and hemoglobin were...
متن کاملReduced complement activation during cardiopulmonary bypass does not affect the postoperative acute phase response.
OBJECTIVE In the present study the relationship was evaluated between perioperative inflammation and the postoperative acute phase response in patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) assisted by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). CPB circuits contained either non-coated- (UMS), Carmeda- (BPS) or Trillium-coated oxygenators (BAS). METHODS Prospectively, 71 CABG patients ...
متن کاملUrinary interleukin-18 does not predict acute kidney injury after adult cardiac surgery: a prospective observational cohort study
INTRODUCTION Urinary interleukin-18 (IL-18) measured during the immediate postoperative period could be a promising predictor of acute kidney injury following adult cardiac surgery. METHODS In a single-centre prospective observational cohort study, we enrolled 100 adult cardiac surgical patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass at a tertiary hospital. We measured the urinary concentration of...
