Pentoxifylline and tumour necrosis factor-induced
Acute Gram-negative bacterial infections evoke characteristic pathophysiological responses, including changes in white blood cell counts, fever, haemodynamic disorders, and various coagulatory disturbances, which may result in respiratory distress syndrome, multiorgan failure and irreversible shock. It is generally accepted that endotoxins, the lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Gramnegative bacteria...
متن کاملRole of tumour necrosis factor in pathogenesis of radicular cyst.
BACKGROUND The radicular cyst is very common odontogenic cyst of the jaws, which is usually associated with a tooth with necrotic pulp. The cyst formation requires proliferation of the epithelial rest cells of Malassez present in the periodontal ligament. Proliferation of epithelial rest cells of Malassez is an essential event in the Pathogenesis of radicular cyst. The wall of the cyst contains...

متن کاملL-carnitine alleviates alcohol-induced liver damage in rats: role of tumour necrosis factor-alpha.
AIMS Excessive alcohol intake induces hepatic fatty infiltration, which has been suggested to sensitize the liver to further damage. To test this hypothesis, L-carnitine, a constitutional lipotropic compound, was administered to rats chronically treated with ethanol by liquid diet feeding for 10 weeks. RESULTS Ethanol administration caused marked steatosis, mild inflammation and elevated plas...
متن کاملRole of tumour necrosis factor-alpha receptor p75 in cigarette smoke-induced pulmonary inflammation and emphysema.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterised by a local pulmonary inflammatory response to respiratory pollutants and by systemic inflammation. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha has been implicated in systemic effects of COPD and operates by binding the p55 (R1) and p75 (R2) TNF-alpha receptors. To investigate the contribution of each TNF-alpha receptor in the pathogenesis of ...
