[ 1 ] - Aqueous Humor and Serum Concentrations of Soluble MICA and MICB in Glaucoma Patients
Background: Immune reactions have been reported to be involved in the destruction of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in glaucoma. Objective: To investigate the role of major histocompatibility complex class I-related chain A and B (MICA and MICB) molecules in the pathogenesis of glaucoma. Methods: Aqueous humor and serum samples from 15 glaucoma patients and 45 patients with cataract, undergoing ...
[ 2 ] - Serum TNF-α, IL-10 and IL-2 in Schizophrenic Patients Before and After Treatment with Risperidone and Clozapine
Background: Schizophrenia is a disorder of the executive function of both sensory and central nervous system. Recent studies suggest that immune mechanisms play a role in the pathophysiology of this disease. The variations in cytokine concentrations have been associated with psychopathology and treatment of schizophrenia. Objective: To investigate the changes in serum concentrations of TNF- α, ...
[ 3 ] - تأثیر مصرف خوراکی غضروف کوسه ماهی بر تعداد و فعالیت سلول های تنظیم کننده T در بیماران مبتلا به سرطان معده
Background and purpose: Gastric cancer is the third most common cancer in Iran and the second leading cause cancer-related death worldwide. Shark cartilage prevents angiogenesis in vivo and in vitro, however, its role on angiogenesis or anti-tumor responses in human is not clear yet. We studied the effects of oral treatment of shark cartilage on peripheral Treg frequency and TGF-β as suppressor...
[ 4 ] - پاسخ‌های ایمنی Th1 و Th2 در عفونت Hymenolepis Nana
زمینه و هدف : با وجود مطالعات زیادی که روی حیوانات آزمایشگاهی انجام گرفته و نقش لنفوسیت‌های Th2 در ایمنی بر علیه کرم‌ها موثر دانسته شده، اما مطالعات جدیدتری که روی موش انجام شده، سلول‌های Th1 را نیز در بعضی از عفونت‌های ناشی از کرم مثل Hymenolepis nana دخیل دانسته‌اند. در مطالعه حاضر به منظور روشن شدن نقش لنفوسیت‌های Th1 و Th2 در ایمنی برعلیه Hymenolepis nana در سرم افراد آلوده به این انگل با ...
[ 5 ] - Inflammation, a Key Factor in Cancer Ambush
Inflammatory condition is the consequence of defensive mechanism of immune system against viral and bacterial infection, tissue injury, UV radiation, stress and etc. Persistently acute inflammation leads to chronic phase which is characterized by production of pro-inflammatory mediators from T cells. These molecules (e.g. IL-6, TNF-&alpha, IL-1&beta and IL-17) are mostly pleiotropic cytokines i...
