This study was aimed to monitor water pullution of Uzuncayir Dam Lake using the changes of IL-6, IL1β and TNF-α levels in Capoeta umbla (Heckel, 1843) liver tissue at ten stations in March and September 2011. In this study C. umbla (Heckel, 1843) was used as the indicator organism. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interlekuin1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were determined in samples ...

The literature lacks consensus on the minimum microbial density required for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs). This study categorized densities of urine specimens from symptomatic UTI patients aged ≥ 60 years and correlated them with detected levels immune response biomarkers neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), interleukin-8 (IL-8), interleukin-1-beta (IL-1β). objective...

Chronic wounds that stall at the inflammatory phase of healing may create several life-threatening complications such as tissue damage, septicemia, and organ failures. In order to prevent these adverse clinical outcomes accelerate wound process, it is crucial monitor status in real-time so immediate therapeutic interventions can be implemented. addition, continuous monitoring drug overdose site...

periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease which represents a primarily anaerobic gram‑negative oral infection that results in gingival inflammation, loss of attachment, bone destruction. bacterial endotoxins in the form of lipopolysaccharides (lps) that are instrumentalin generating a host‑mediated tissue destructive immune response by mobilizing their defensivecells and releasing c...

Abstract Background Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is caused by the blockage of coronary arteries. it argued that there has an association between Interleukin-6 gene and occurrence atherosclerosis, artery disease, Due to short half-life high variability (IL-6), limited studies have been performed on serum levels interleukin-6 with disease. The aim this study investigate relationship IL-6 polymor...

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to investigate the immunomodulatory effect beta glucan in an experimental model intraabdominal bacteremia induced by S. aureus.MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirty Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into four groups. Staphylococcus aureus (SAB), treatment with cefazolin, glucan, both cefazolin and groups constituted respectively. 4 mg/kg 100 given after 12x...

conclusions these results suggest that toxins induce inflammatory responses, particularly through expression of chemokine. recombinant stx and native toxin induced apoptosis by balancing between different pro- and anti-apoptotic bcl-2 family-factors in epithelial cells. in this study, for the first time, recombinant and native stx induction of apoptotic factors and stimulation of immune respons...

Prolonged wearing of high heels can cause chronic injury and inflammation. Herein, we investigated the presence muscle injury, inflammation, neutrophil function in young women after a single bout stiletto dance class. Sixteen volunteers (23.4 ± 3.8 years; 61.7 8.1 kg; 23.4 2.3 kg/m2; 27.2 3.8% body fat) participated study. The plasma biomarkers matrix metalloproteinase 3 (MMP-3), damage (myoglo...

Background and aims: IL-22 is an alpha- helical cytokine. IL-22 binds to a heterodimeric cell surface receptor composed of IL-10R2 and IL-22R1subunits. IL-22R is expressed on tissue cells, and it is absent on immune cells. L-22 and IL-10 receptor chains play a role in cellular targeting and signal transduction to selectively initiate and regulate immune responses. The aim of this study was to i...
