Tumor necrosis factor-α predicts response to cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with chronic heart failure.
BACKGROUND Pro-inflammatory cytokines contribute to the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF) and are up-regulated in affected patients. We investigated whether pro-inflammatory cytokines might predict the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). METHODS AND RESULTS: Plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 were assessed in 91 patients before CRT. Response ...
متن کاملThe relationship between tumor necrosis factor-α polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk: An updated meta-analysis
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and the development of gastric cancer, and to investigate whether it can be used as a biological marker for gastric cancer. In the current study, a new meta-analysis was performed to assess the association between TNF-α gene polymorphisms and gastric cancer susceptibility. Subgroup analyses bas...
متن کاملIs tumor necrosis factor-α friend or foe for chronic heart failure?
Although detrimental effects of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) have been reported in failing myocardium, clinical trials using TNF-α antagonists did not show the benefit of TNF-α inhibition in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). The double-edged effects of TNF-α/Toll-like receptors (TLRs)-related proinflammatory cytokines and downstream signal transduction, nuclear factor (NF)-κB activa...
متن کاملserum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukins in children with congenital heart disease
background: levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines in blood have a positive relationship with congenital heart disease (chd). we sought to assess the difference in serum cytokines levels between children with and without chd. methods: we recruited 60 patients with chd and 30 healthy children, from 2013 to 2014. patients with primary pulmonary hypertension; metabolic diseases; renal, endocrine...
متن کاملTumor necrosis factor- α, adiponectin and their ratio in gestational diabetes mellitus
Background: It has been suggested that inflammation might be implicated in the gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) complications, including insulin resistance. The aims of the current study were to explore maternal circulating values of TNF-α, adiponectin and the adiponectin/TNF-α ratio in women with GDM compared with normal pregnancy and their relationships with metabolic syndrome ...
