متن کاملEvaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
متن کاملEffect of ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol supplementations on serum leptin, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and serum amyloid A levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Objective: Diabetes mellitus Type 2 is one of the most widespread chronic metabolic diseases. In most cases, this type of diabetes is associated with alterations in levels of some inflammatory cytokines and hormones. Considering anti-inflammatory properties of plant extracts rich in ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E), anti-diabetic properties of these two well-known anti...
متن کاملSerum tumor necrosis factor alpha increased during remission with Etanercept
Results TNF-a was measurable in 39 serum samples and in all SF samples. Only 19% of serum samples had greater TNF-a levels than controls. The most elevated levels of serum TNF-a were found in patients during clinical remission with Etanercept. In one patient with seropositive polyarticular disease, Etanercept administration for 6 months resulted in important elevation of serum TNF-a, regardless...
متن کاملEvaluation of relationship between the level of inflammatory cytokines Interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha with virologic response to treatment in patients with HIV
Background: Despite the considerable advances in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) treatment and management, finding the cure for this disease has been hindered by emerging challenges such as virus resistance and treatment failures. The purpose of this study is to compare the cytokine profiles of patients with successful treatment and patients with unsuccessful treatment to gain a bette...
