Role of Adhesion Molecules in Immune Response

Pentoxifylline Decreases Serum Level of Adhesion Molecules in Atherosclerosis Patients

Background: Inflammation is involved in development, progression, and complications of atherosclerotic disease. Clinical studies have indicated that the level of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), IL-18, and adhesion molecules correlates with the severity of atherosclerosis and can predict future cardiovascular events. Experimental studies have shown pentoxifylline (PTX) reduces these ...

Role of TNF priming and adhesion molecules in neutrophil recruitment to intravascular immune complexes.

Neutrophils play an important role in immune complex (IC)-mediated diseases, but the mechanisms underlying their recruitment to sites of IC deposition remain largely undefined. Furthermore, neutrophils encounter cytokines that prime their effector functions, yet the physiological relevance of priming to neutrophil functions is unclear. Using intravital microscopy, we demonstrate that TNF treatm...

role of cultural iran in promotion of multilaieralism in central asia and caucasus

cultural iran is a scope that is more extended than the political territories of iran as a political unit. this concept means that cultural geography(mehdi moghanlo-1383-1) of iran is greater than its political geography which, according to history, has a long history extending west-east from kandahar to the euphrates and north-south from the persian gulf to the caucasus including transoxiana a...
