Interleukin-6, interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist levels in epileptic seizures
PURPOSE Data are accumulating to support the involvement of inflammatory mechanisms in the pathogenesis and course of epilepsy. METHODS The aim of this study was to examine seizure-induced changes in plasma concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in 23 patients with epilepsy undergoing a video-electroencephalography (E...
متن کاملInterleukin-1 receptor antagonist.
IL-1ra is the first described naturally occurring receptor antagonist of any cytokine or hormone-like molecule. IL-1ra is a member of the IL-1 family by three criteria: amino acid sequence homology of 26 to 30% to IL-1 beta and 19% to IL-1 alpha; similarities in gene structure; and common gene localization to human chromosome 2q14. Two structural variants of IL-1ra exist: sIL-1ra, a secretory m...
متن کاملHuman intestinal epithelial cells secrete interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and interleukin-8 but not interleukin-1 or interleukin-6.
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence that intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) are involved in the mucosal immune system. AIM To assess the pattern of cytokines secreted by IECs and lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMNCs). To achieve this, the expression and secretion of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), IL-6, and IL-8 in human primary colonic and ileal IECs and LPMNCs fr...
متن کاملAltered levels of interleukin-1 beta and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist in chronic myelogenous leukemia: clinical and prognostic correlates.
We have recently demonstrated that interleukin (IL)-1 beta levels are elevated in advanced chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and that IL-1 inhibitors can suppress CML clonogenic growth. To further assess the clinical implications of increased IL-1 beta expression in CML, we analyzed IL-1 beta and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) levels in leukocyte lysates from a series of CML patients and fr...
متن کاملInterleukin 1-β, Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist, and Interleukin 18 in Children with Acute Spontaneous Urticaria
UNLABELLED Very little is known about the role of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) in urticaria. MATERIAL AND METHODS Serum levels of IL-1β, IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA), and IL-18 were measured in 56 children with urticaria and in 41 healthy subjects. RESULTS Serum IL-1β did not differ between children with acute urticaria and controls. Children with single episode of...
