Treatment of hypertriglyceridemia and HIV: fenofibrate-induced changes in the expression of chemokine genes in circulating leukocytes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fenofibrate changed the expression of chemokine genes in circulating leukocytes of HIV-infected patients with hypertriglyceridemia. The data suggest that fenofibrate when effective in the treatment of lipoprotein abnormalities, may act as a modulator of systemic inflammation. This particular action, therefore, may also influence the clinical course of the disease.

Comparative Analysis of Expression of Chemokoine Receptors CXCR4, CXCR6, CCR1 and CX3CR in Human Adipose-Drived Mesenchymal Stem Cell with Valproic Acid
Introduction: Chemokine receptors are found on the surface of stem cells. There have been 19 distinct chemokine receptors described in mammals. Chemokines are major players in migration and homing. Therefore, changes in their levels or function can help us to increase the migratory potential of these cells. Valproic acid differs in structure from other drugs in common use. The way in which Va...

Trehalose is the non-reducing alpha-alpha-1, 1-linked glucose disaccharide. The biosynthesisprecursor of trehalose, trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P), is essential for plant development, growth,carbon utilization and alters photosynthetic capacity but its mode of action is not understood. In thecurrent research, 6 days old seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana (Columbia ecotype) were grown inliquid cultu...

Cytokines are important regulators of the immune system, and identifying fish cytokines has potential applications for the development of vaccines and/or immunostimulants application in fisheries. In order to understand the immune-related genes triggered by immunostimulants derived from pathogens, we investigated the effects of agonists (lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Poly I:C, and imiquimod) of thr...
متن کاملCharacterization of Immune Responses Induced by Combined Clade-A HIV-1 Recombinant Adenovectors in Mice
Background: Numerous evidences indicate that in some HIV-1 positive patients, the humoral and cellular immune responses are induced against HIV-1 proteins and this is inversely related to the progress of infection. Objective: The aim of this study was the evaluation of the Adenovectors containing HIV genes in induction of immune responses in mice. Methods: The HIV-1 genes including gag p24, rev...

Background: Experimental cryptorchidism is a common model for examining the expression and function of heat-induced spermatogenesis related genes in testis. In this study the expression of genes & proteins thatinvolved in programmed cell death after treatment of cryptorchidism was examined. Materials and Methods: To induce bilateral cryptorchid model immature mice were anesthetized and a small ...
