background: most of the cardiovascular diseases can be prevented by doing regular physical exercises and using herbal supplements.the present study is aimed at assessing ginger supplement and high?intensity interval training (hiit) on inflammatory indices contributing to atherosclerosis in overweight women. materials and methods: the present study is a randomized, experimental,and controlled on...

background: considering the existence of controversies about the predictive value of inflammatory markers for cardiovascular disease (cvd), we aimed to compare the level of high?sensitivity c?reactive protein (hs?crp) and interlukin?6 (il?6) level in chronic hemodialysis (hd) patients with and without cvd. materials and methods: in this historical cohort study, hd patients with and without cvd ...

background: the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease is complex and multifactorial. studies have led to the current concept that toll-like receptors represent key mediators of innate host defense in the intestine, and they are involved in maintaining mucosal as well as commensal homeostasis. we studied the possibility of simvastatin and antagonist of receptors of interleukin-1 for pharmac...

Introduction One of the factors influencing symptoms schizophrenia, which may indicate changes in cognitive functioning patients, is fluctuating level inflammatory cytokines. Objectives The aim review was to analyze available literature on importance selected [interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis α (TNF-α)] schizophrenia and ...

background: current treatments for joint diseases are moderately successful, but unfortunately are associated with significant side effects. this study was undertaken to investigate the combination effects of il-4 and prednisolone on tissue characteristics and production of matrix metalloproteinase-1(mmp-1) in il-lα-treated bovine nasal cartilage (bnc) explants. methods: bnc explants were cultu...

background: this work aimed to show and compare the degradation time of some of cartilage extracellular matrix components using an in vitro model for cartilage degradation induced by interleukin-1 alpha. it is known that elucidation of molecular events under interleukin-1 alpha induction of bovine nasal cartilage could obtain useful data to understand more about involving mechanisms for tissue ...

Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) characteristically affects previously healthy children, who experience a sudden and explosive onset of super-refractory status epilepticus preceded by febrile infection accompanied fulminant neurogenic inflammation. FIRES, however, can affect individuals all ages is subcategory new-onset refractory epilepticus. This definition FIRES excludes i...

conclusions our findings indicate that patients with the homozygous cc genotype in the il28b gene had a significantly higher rate of response to treatment than those with the tt or ct genotypes. nor does the il28b rs12979860 polymorphism affect the viral load. results the genotype frequencies of rs12979860 polymorphism in group 1 were cc (28.9%), ct (37.8%) and tt (33.3%) and in group 2 were cc...

cytokines play a part in pathogenesis of periodontitis via inflammation phenomenon. aggressive periodontitis (agp) is a multifactorial disease resulting in rapid tooth loss due to severe destruction of tooth supporting apparatus. recently, researchers have focused on genetic susceptibility of periodontitis through investigating the gene variations of cytokines and other components of immune res...
