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 کاملTNF-alpha receptor antagonist, R-7050, improves neurological outcomes following intracerebral hemorrhage in mice.
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), the most common form of hemorrhagic stroke, exhibits the highest acute mortality and the worst long-term prognosis of all stroke subtypes. Unfortunately, treatment options for ICH are lacking due in part to a lack of feasible therapeutic targets. Inflammatory activation is associated with neurological deficits in pre-clinical ICH models and with patient deteriora...
متن کاملInhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha improves postischemic recovery of hypertrophied hearts.
BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha has been implicated in the pathogenesis of heart failure and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Effects of TNF-alpha are initiated by membrane receptors coupled to sphingomyelinase signaling and include altered metabolism and calcium cycling, contractile dysfunction, and cell death. We postulate that pressure-overload hypertrophy results in increased myoca...
متن کاملAcute Statin Treatment Improves Recovery after Experimental Intracerebral Hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We have previously demonstrated that 2-week treatment of experimental intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) with a daily dose of 2 mg/kg statin starting 24 hours post-injury exerts a neuroprotective effect. The present study extends our previous investigation and tests the effect of acute high-dose (within 24 hours) statin therapy on experimental ICH. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fift...
متن کاملExpression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha--converting enzyme and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in human myocarditis.
OBJECTIVES We determined whether tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) is expressed with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in myocarditis. BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme, which has recently been identified as belonging to the family of metalloproteinase disintegrin proteins, is responsible for the conversion of TNF-alpha precursor to its mature f...
