Interleukin-8 potentiates the effect of interleukin-1-induced uterine contractions.
The aim of this research was to study the effect of exogenous interleukin (IL)-8, IL-1 and IL-8 + IL-1 on uterine contractions in rabbits.

متن کاملInterleukin 12 potentiates the curative effect of a vaccine based on interleukin 2-transduced tumor cells.
The purpose of these studies was to determine whether systemic administration of recombinant interleukin 12 (rIL-12) is able to potentiate an initial, but insufficient T-cell antitumor response. Mice challenged with carcinoma cells engineered to release interleukin 2 (IL-2) and displaying such a response received single or multiple i.p. injections of rIL-12. This combination of systemic rIL-12 ...
