salivary levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α in patients undergoing hemodialysis

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α and Interleukin-1- β Polymorphisms in Pre-Eclampsia

Background: Pre-eclampsia is the most common critical condition during pregnancy. Plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1-beta (IL-1β) increase in pregnant women with pre-eclampsia, compared to normal pregnant women. Objective: To investigate the polymorphisms of IL-1β (C+3954T), TNF-α (G- 308A), and (G-238A) in preeclemptic women northeastern Iran. Me...

the effects of obesity on local and circulating levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 in patients with chronic periodontitis

background and aims. the aim of this study was to evaluate the possible effects of obesity on the local (salivary) and systemic tnf-α and il-6 levels in patients with chronic periodontitis (cp). materials and methods. this study included 88 subjects assigned to four groups of 22 subjects each, as follows: group o+p+ (patients with obesity and cp), group o-p+ (patients with normal weight and cp)...

Pioglitazone treatment decreases follicular fluid levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of pioglitazone on controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), IVF outcomes, and follicular fluid (FF) cytokine concentrations in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS Eighty-six infertile patients with PCOS resistant to clomiphene citrate were randomized to receive pioglitazone (30 mg/day) or placebo on the starting day of oral contraceptive (...

MODULATION OF INTERLEUKIN-1Β (IL-1Β ), TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR–Α (TNF-Α) AND INTERLEUKIN-10 (IL-10 ) GENES EXPRESSION FOLLOWING CONCURRENT TRAINING IN WOMEN WITH TYPE2 DIABETES

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of concurrent training on pre-inflammatory (IL-1β, TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines gene expression in women with type2 diabetes. Methods: 18-patients (age30-38, >130 glycemic index) were selected, randomly, and divided into control (n=6) the concurrent training(diabetes, n=6) and the concurrent training (healthy...

Salivary and serum interleukin 1 beta, interleukin 6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha in patients with leukoplakia and oral cancer

OBJECTIVES The aim of study was to compare salivary and serum concentrations of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in patients with oral leukoplakia, oral cancer and healthy controls. STUDY DESIGN Eighty eight patients (28 with oral cancer, 29 leukoplakia, and 31 healthy controls) were included in this study. Cytokine concentrations were m...
