Circulating natural killer cells in psoriasis.
BACKGROUND Psoriasis is an immunologically mediated, probably autoimmune, disease in which T-helper type 1 cytokines play an important role. Established autoimmune diseases, with similar mechanistic characteristics to psoriasis, include multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes mellitus and systemic lupus erythematosus. Natural killer (NK) and natural killer-T (NK-T) cells are c...
متن کاملEvaluation of in vitro Effect of Pyocyanine Pigment on Interleukin-2 Secretion from Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells in Cancer Patients
Background and Objective: The pyocyanine pigment in Pseudomonas aeruginosa stimulates blood cells to secrete IL-2. IL-2 cytokine is an activator of cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells. These cells destroy the target cells of patients with cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of pyocyanine on the IL-2 secretion from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in patients with b...
متن کاملNatural Killer Cells in Psoriasis
Psoriasis is one of the most common immune-mediated disorders. There is evidence that it is mediated by Th1 and, more recently, Th17 cells. The cytokine pattern, particularly the dominance of TNF , implicates the innate immune system in psoriasis pathogenesis. Of the many components of the innate immune system known to be involved in psoriatic lesions, natural killer and natural killer T cells...
متن کاملSpring Meeting of the Irish Association of Dermatologists. Friday 24th April 2009
Obesity has emerged as a major co-morbidity in patients with psoriasis. In a case control study we found that patients with psoriasis had significantly higher body mass indices (BMI) compared to controls (p = 0.004). Increased adiposity and weight gain were strong risk factors for the development of psoriasis in the Nurses Health study 1. Multivariate analysis demonstrated a clear, graded assoc...
متن کاملThe State of Peripheral Blood Natural Killer Cells and Cytotoxicity in Women with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Unexplained Infertility
Objective : The prognostic value of peripheral natural killer (pNK) cells, as a screening test in women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and unexplained infertility is still a matter for discussion. The aim of this study was to compare the percentage of circulating CD56+NK cells, CD69 and perforin markers between women with unexplained infertility and RPL with healthy control group. Material...
