il-32 and tnf? are important cytokines in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. il-32 has not been previously studied with respect to ms. here, we report il-32 and tnf? transcript levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of ms patients and control individuals by real time pcr. a significant difference in il-32 and tnf? mrna levels of patients as compared to controls was not observed. howeve...

Introduction: Glial activation and secretion of cytokines at the spinal level is known as part of chronic pain pathogenesis. Although changes in TNFα at the supraspinal level are reported during chronic pain, its exact role and site of action remain to be elucidated. We investigated the effect of microinfusion of TNFα into the LC in a rat model of neuropathic pain. Methods: Male Wistar rats...

Abstract Background Vedolizumab and anti-TNFα drugs are biologics that used to treat moderate severe ulcerative colitis (UC). In the UK, decision of which drug use at first-line is often based on a combination clinical factors price (based one-year cost analysis from NICE appraisal). The treatment pathway rarely considered. Therefore, we investigated whether choice biologic affects time-on-trea...

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a low-grade inflammatory state with increased serum levels of TNFα. The present study has compared the inflammatory responses to breast cancer cell lines in women with PCOS with healthy women. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from 50 women with PCOS and 50 healthy controls were cultured in the trans-well co-culture system. These cells were ...

objective(s)apelin is novel adipokine acting on apj receptor, regulated by insulin and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (tnf-alpha). plasma apelin levels are increased in obese subjects. the aim of this study was to investigate whether or not the aerobic exercise modifies the elevated plasma apelin levels in obese women.materials and methodstwenty obese women (bmi 32.2 ± 6.4 kg/m2) were selected by ...
