Biology of interleukin 1.
Interleukin 1 (IL 1) is a polypeptide that is produced after infection, injury, or antigenic challenge. Although the macrophage is a primary source of IL 1, epidermal, epithelial, lymphoid, and vascular tissues synthesize IL 1. When IL 1 gains access to the circulation, it acts like a hormone and induces a broad spectrum of systemic changes in neurological, metabolic, hematologic, and endocrino...
متن کاملBasic biology and clinical application of specific cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors.
In summary, COX-2 is a highly regulated gene product that catalyzes the local production of PGs in pathologic and physiologic situations (Figure 1). It is clear that COX-2 is the isoform responsible for production of the PGs that mediate inflammation, pain, and fever. However, the role for COX-2 in normal physiology is still being defined. Specific COX-2 inhibitors represent a significant conce...
متن کاملEffect of Vitamin D treatment on Interleukin-2 and Interleukin-4 Genes expression in Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of central nervous system. The etiology of MS is slightly known, but genetic and environmental factors are reported. Vitamin D regulates gene expression and affects target cell functions. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression variation of IL-2 and IL-4 genes under vitamin D supplementation in patients with mult...
متن کاملThe biology of interleukin-6.
B CELLS ARE the only eukaryotic cells that are able to produce antibody molecules. Their growth and differentiation into antibody producing cells require the presence of T cells and macrophages; the function of these cells was found to be replaced by soluble factors. 3 In the early i980s it was shown that at least two different kinds of factors were required in the regulation of B cell response...
