Upregulation of SOCS1 and SOCS3 mRNA levels in pediatric patients with henoch-schoenlein purpura

چکیده
Suppressors of Cytokine Signaling (SOCS) family members are inhibitors of cytokine signaling pathways. Emerging evidence suggests the involvement of SOCS1 and SOCS3 in a variety of diseases, including allergy, autoimmune diseases, and inflammation. This study aimed to investigate the expression of SOCS1 and SOCS3 in the development of Henoch-Schoenlein Purpura (HSP) in children. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) were isolated from children with HSP (HSP group, n=20) and healthy children (control group, n=15). The mRNA levels of SOCS1 and SOCS3 in PMBC were detected by Real Time Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). The results showed that the mRNA levels of SOCS1/3 were up-regulated in HSP group compared to control group (P<0.01). These data suggest that SOCS1 and SOCS3 mRNA levels are upregulated in children with HSP.

متن کاملProtein-losing enteropathy associated with Henoch-Schönlein purpura
The gastrointestinal manifestations of Henoch-Schönlein purpura include abdominal pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, intussusception, and perforation. Protein-losing enteropathy is rarely associated with Henoch-Schönlein purpura. Two pediatric patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura who developed protein-losing enteropathy are reported. Tc-99m human serum albumin scintigraphy is useful in the dete...
متن کاملT cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing molecule 1 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in Henoch Schonlein purpura.
The T cell immunoglobulin- and mucin domain-containing molecules (Tim) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of immune diseases. In this study, we used quantitative real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction to examine the Tim 1 mRNA expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from Henoch Schonlein purpura patients. The results showed that Tim1 mRNA expression was signifi...
