Detection of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-12 Serum Levels in Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis
Background: Periodontitis is a multifactorial chronic inflammatory disease characterized by destruction of tooth-supporting tissues. Environmental and genetic factors as well as the immune system participate in this process. Recent studies have attempted to elucidate the role of cytokine networks involved in periodontal diseases. Objective: To assess and compare the levels of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-...
متن کاملIL-4 Can Inhibit IL-17 Production in Collagen Induced Arthritis
Background: IL-4 is a cytokine that induces differentiation of naive helper T cells into Th2 cells. Once activated by IL-4, Th2 cells subsequently produce additional IL-4. Objective: To examine the effect of IL-4 on IL-17 production and its effect in Collagen- Induced Arthritis (CIA) mice. Method: In this study, a chicken collagen-II-induced experimental arthritis (CIA) model was used in DBA/1 ...
متن کاملContrasting effects of IL-4, IL-10 and corticosteroids on RANTES production by human monocytes.
RANTES is a chemokine produced in delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and allergic reactions, in which it may contribute to the recruitment of immune cells. Macrophages participate in the cellular infiltration in both conditions and they represent a potent source of RANTES. To understand the regulation of RANTES production by human monocytes, we analyzed the effect of cytokines and of corticost...
متن کاملInterleukin-4 (IL-4) Inhibits Secretion of IL-lfl, Tumor Necrosis Factor a, and IL-6 by Human Monocytes
Monocytes activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon y (IFNy) rapidly secrete a number of monokines with different functional properties. Interleukin-4 (IL-41, a T-cell derived cytokine, has been shown to reduce the production of monokines with cytostatic activity for tumor cells, chemotactic activity for monocytes, and factors that stimulate thymocyte proliferation. This latter activ...
متن کاملAssessment of Interleukins IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 in Acute Urticaria
BACKGROUND Urticaria is a skin disease that affects approximately 5% of the general population and manifests itself, not only as an acute but also as a chronic disease. The etiology of the disease varies as well as its clinical manifestations which extend from the presence of urticarial hives to the potentially mortal angioedema. There is a great interest to the disease not only due to its spec...
