Tumour necrosis factor in synovial exudates
The actions of tumour necrosis factor (TNF) include resorption of bone and cartilage, suggesting a potential role in the pathogenesis of arthritis. TNF activity was looked for in synovial fluids from 137 patients with different rheumatic diseases. Unfractionated samples were tested in the L929 bioassay. Significant TNF activity that was neutralised by monoclonal antibody to TNF alpha occurred i...

متن کاملCarrageenan-induced acute inflammation in the mouse air pouch synovial model. Role of tumour necrosis factor
We used the mouse air pouch model of inflammation to study the interaction between cytokines, prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and cell migration during the various phases of acute local inflammation induced by carrageenan. In serum, the levels of interleukin 1 (IL-1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumour necrosis factor (TNF), serum amiloid-A (SAA) and Fe(++) were never different from controls, indicating ...
متن کاملTumour necrosis factor in serum and synovial fluid of patients with active and severe rheumatoid arthritis.
Fifteen serum samples and 29 synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were examined for the presence of tumour necrosis factor (TNF). The assay for TNF was based on the cytotoxic activity of this cytokine for human melanoma cells in tissue culture. High concentrations of TNF were found in serum samples of patients with severe RA, who had increased erythrocyte sedimentation rat...
متن کاملTumour necrosis factor-α in nasal allergy
Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) by radio-immunoassay to evaluate TNF-alpha in nasal allergy. There was no significant difference either between the mean concentrations of TNF-alpha in nasal secretions from the patients with perennial nasal allergy and those of normal subjects, or between the TNF-alp...
