the pathogenesis of bipolar i disorder (bp-i) involves immune-mediated mechanisms, especially an imbalance in pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokines in plasma or cerebrospinal fluid. interleukin-1 (il-1) gene cluster, coding some of these pro-inflammatory cytokines, might play a role in various neuropathologies related to neuron inflammation. the aim of the present study was to investigat...

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...
