background: dendritic cells (dcs) are professional antigen presenting cells that have an important role in the initiation of immune response. the use of maturation factors in dendritic cell differentiation provides a promising approach in immunotherapy. objective: in this study, we compared tumor necrosis factor-α, polyribocytidylic acid, lipopolysacharide and cpg oligonucleotides in inducing d...

Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) is ubiquitous in the human body and plays a significant role various physiological pathological processes. However, TNF-α-induced diseases remain poorly understood with limited efficacy due to intricate nature of their mechanisms. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation, prevalent type epigenetic modification mRNA, primarily occurs at post-transcriptional level ...

tumor necrosis factor- α (tnf-α) plays an important role in diverse cellular events such as septic shock, induction of other cytokines, cell proliferation and apoptosis. tumor necrosis factor (tnf)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (trail) is currently attracting great interest as a potential anticancer drug. trail could selectively induce apoptosis in tumor cells in vitro and in vivo by a deat...

In the recent original research published on International Journal of Fertility and Sterility the association between tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) genetic polymorphisms and endometriosis in 150 Iranian patients suffered this disease. The authors notably found a lower frequency of TNF-α -863C/A allele A among the affected patients in comparison with healthy women, although this difference...

recent studies have established that sex hormones directly or indirectly affect t and b cells and macrophages by manipulating the production of cytokines. in this study the possibility of the effect of 5a-dht on macrophage (mφ) nitric oxide (no) release via interleukin-l, 6 (ll-1β, il-6) or tumor necrosis factor-a (tnfα) was investigated. the endogenous cytokines il-1β, il-6 and tnf-α were neut...

background: inflammatory response following surgical trauma has long been a matter of study. results, however, have been varied. we sought to assess changes in the levels of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in patients undergoing laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy and their impact on the clinical outcome of patients concerning the postoperative pain score. methods: the study i...
