چکیده
CYTOKINES play critical roles in the immune response, particularly in the self-defense system. Activated human monocyte/macrophage is a major source of interleukin-6 (lL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFa). I Interleukin-2 HL-2) is released primarily by activated T lymphocytes following antigen presentation.2 We conducted a study to monitor various cytokines (IL-6. TNF-a, and IL-2) after small bowel transplantation and evaluated whether or not the serum cytokine level could reflect the rejection of human small bowel allograft.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of two concurrent resistance-plyometric and small sided game methods on pro-inflammatory in youth soccer players. Methods: 30 youth soccer players with a range of 14 to 17 years of age were divided randomly in three groups, SSG (n=8), resistance-plyometric (n=11) and control (n=11). Height, weight, BMI and VO2max of the subjects were...

Background: The tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a cytokine that produced principally by monocyte/macrophages and T lymphocytes, respectively. TNFα is recognized as the primary mediator of immunity in inflammation reaction. One important application of Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 2 (TNFR2) is for the treatment of autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA).<br /...
