Interleukin-18 involvement in hypoxic-ischemic brain injury.
Inflammation is a critical factor for development of hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is a proinflammatory cytokine expressed in microglia and processed by caspase-1. Our aim was to characterize the expression of IL-18 and its receptor in relation to caspase-1 and IL-1beta after HI and to evaluate to what extent IL-18 contributes to HI brain injury. Seven-day-old rats ...
متن کاملInvolvement of interleukin-18 in patients on maintenance haemodialysis.
Maintenance dialysis induces a clinical state of immunodeficiency. The pathway of circulating T cells from haemodialyzed patients is changed and characterized by an increase of Th1 cells. The unbalanced T helper differentiation derives from an altered regulation of interleukin-12 (IL-12), which represents an important inducer of Th1. IL-18 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine expressed by a variety o...
متن کاملNeuroprotective role of nerve growth factor in hypoxicischemic injury. From brain to skin.
Hypoxic-ischemic injuries (HII) of the brain, optic pathways, and skin are frequently associated with poor neurological and clinical outcome. Unfortunately, no new therapeutic approaches have been proposed for these conditions. Recently, experimental and clinical studies showed that nerve growth factor (NGF) can improve neurological deficits, visual loss and skin damage after HII. Based on thes...
متن کاملThe Role of Proinflammatory Cytokine Interleukin-18 in Radiation Injury
Massive radiation-induced inflammatory factors released from injured cells may cause innate and acquired immune reactions that can further result in stress response signal activity-induced local and systemic damage. IL-1 family members IL-1β, IL-18, and IL-33 play key roles in inflammatory and immune responses and have been recognized to have significant influences on the pathogenesis of diseas...
