Evaluation 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 کاملInhibition of muscle insulin-like growth factor I expression by tumor necrosis factor-alpha.
The role of TNF-alpha in muscle catabolism is well established, but little is known about the mechanisms of its catabolic action. One possibility could be that TNF-alpha impairs the production of local growth factors like IGF-I. The aim of this study was to investigate whether TNF-alpha can directly inhibit IGF-I gene and protein expression in muscle. First, we investigated whether the acute in...
متن کاملInhibition of osteoblast differentiation by tumor necrosis factor-alpha.
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) has a key role in skeletal disease in which it promotes reduced bone formation by mature osteoblasts and increased osteoclastic resorption. Here we show that TNF inhibits differentiation of osteoblasts from precursor cells. TNF-alpha treatment of fetal calvaria precursor cells, which spontaneously differentiate to the osteoblast phenotype over 21 days, in...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor alpha inhibits insulin-like growth factor I-induced hematopoietic cell survival and proliferation.
Proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNFalpha and IL-1beta, are both cytostatic and cytotoxic. In contrast, IGF-I promotes proliferation and survival of hematopoietic progenitor cells. In this report, we establish that both the cytostatic and cytotoxic activity of TNFalpha on murine myeloid progenitor cells is only evident in the presence of IGF-I. We first confirmed that IGF-I (100 ng/ml) increa...
متن کاملMechanisms of hemorrhage-induced hepatic insulin resistance: role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha.
Hemorrhage, sepsis, burn injury, surgical trauma and critical illness all induce insulin resistance. Recently we found that trauma and hemorrhage acutely induced hepatic insulin resistance in the rat. However, the mechanisms of this hemorrhage-induced acute hepatic insulin resistance are unknown. Here we report on the mechanisms of this hepatic insulin resistance. Protein levels and phosphoryla...
