Endometriosis Classification and The Role of Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Polymorphisms as A Therapeutic Target
In the recent original research published on International Journal of Fertility and Sterility the association between tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) genetic polymorphisms and endometriosis in 150 Iranian patients suffered this disease. The authors notably found a lower frequency of TNF-α -863C/A allele A among the affected patients in comparison with healthy women, although this difference...
متن کاملEffect of Collagen Membrane on Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-α) Level in Wound Healing Process in Rats
This study aimed to measure the TNF-α level in rat blood serum during wound healing process using collagen membrane. Methods: 24 male Wistar rats were divided into two groups: treatment and control. A bone defect was created on the rat’s jaw using a 2 mm diamond bur. The defect was then covered with collagen membrane in the treatment group and without collagen membrane cover in control group. R...
متن کاملTUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR ALPHA (TNF-a)
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF, TNFSF2) is an important multifunctional cytokine that regulates inflammation, host defense, immune responses, and apoptosis. TNF exists as a membrane-bound 26kDa, type II integral membrane protein, and a 17kDa soluble homotrimeric TNF that is generated via proteolytic cleavage by TNF-a converting enzyme (TACE, ADAM17). Both the membrane-bound and soluble forms ...
متن کاملDevelopment of ELISA Systems for Measurement of Human Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha (TNF-α)
The aim of this study was to develop a human tumor necrosis factor alpha (hTNF-α) ELISA system because specific and sensitive measurement of low levels of circulating TNF-α is very important for enlightening the immunopathologial mechanisms associated with TNF-α. Monoclonal antibodies 6A4c and 8A6 were produced against hTNF-α and were used as the capture antibody and the tracer antibody respect...
متن کاملDoes tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) play a role in post-chemotherapy cerebral dysfunction?
Post-chemotherapy treated cancer patients frequently report cognitive difficulties. The biology of this phenomenon is poorly understood, with uncertainty about possible direct toxic effects on the brain, secondary effects from systemic inflammation, host factors/genetic predisposition to cognitive complaints, or hormonal changes influencing cognitive function. To elucidate possible mechanisms a...
