Tumour 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...
متن کاملThe -308 promoter polymorphism in the tumour necrosis factor gene in patients with lichen planus.
The close chromosomal proximity of major histocompatibility complex and tumour necrosis factor genes may suggest the involvement of the latter in the pathogenesis of immunological diseases associated with HLA antigenes. The major histocompatibility complex antigens may play a certain role in the pathogenesis of lichen planus. Therefore we examined the -308 promoter polymorphism of tumour necros...
متن کاملErythema nodosum.
Erythema nodosum is the most frequent clinico-pathological variant of the panniculitides. The disorder is a cutaneous reaction consisting of inflammatory, tender, nodular lesions, usually located on the anterior aspects of the lower extremities. The process may be associated with a wide variety of diseases, being infections, sarcoidosis, rheumatologic diseases, inflammatory bowel diseases, medi...
متن کاملErythema Nodosum
Erythema nodosum is the most common and, in its classic form, the most easily recognized cause of inflammatory nodules on the legs. It is characterized by inflammatory, tender, nonulcerating, nonscarring nodules that are typically multiple and bilateral. The rather characteristic clinical presentation can be attributable to one of many causes or associated with a wide spectrum of systemic disea...
متن کاملE-selectin polymorphism in erythema nodosum secondary to sarcoidosis.
OBJECTIVE E-selectin is expressed on cytokine-stimulated endothelial cells and plays an important role in leukocyte-endothelium interactions and inflammatory cell recruitment. An A/C polymorphism at position +561 in the E-selectin gene, which yields an amino acid exchange from serine to arginine at position 128 in the epidermal growth factor-like domain, has been described. We have assessed whe...
