Cytokines and implantation.
There is strong evidence that cytokines and growth factors play an important role as local mediators of the actions of steroids on the endometrium to prepare it for implantation. These factors have also been shown to act in both an autocrine and paracrine manner to regulate the development of preimplantation embryos in several species. Attempts to define the function of each cytokine have invol...
متن کاملSynovial fractalkine plays important role in cytokines’ related knee edema variation in rat arthritis model
Introduction: The systemic and local content of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines play substantial roles in pathophysiology of arthritis. This study was purposed to verify the roles of synovial TNF-α, IL-6 and fractalkine (Fkn) in edema changes during different stages of Complete Freund’s Adjuvant (CFA)-induced knee arthritis in rats. Methods: 168 male Wistar rats were divided i...
متن کاملEmbryonic implantation: cytokines, adhesion molecules, and immune cells in establishing an implantation environment.
Successful implantation is an absolute requirement for the reproduction of species, including humans. The process by which a foreign blastocyst is accepted by the maternal endometrium is complex and requires interplay of many systems. Implantation occurs during the putative implantation window, in which the maternal endometrium is ready to accept the blastocyst, which on the other hand, also pl...
متن کاملCytokines, chemokines and growth factors in endometrium related to implantation.
The complexity of the events of embryo implantation and placentation is exemplified by the number and range of cytokines with demonstrated roles in these processes. Disturbance of the normal expression or action of these cytokines results in complete or partial failure of implantation and abnormal placental formation in mice or humans. Of known importance are members of the gp130 family such as...
متن کاملMolecular factors in human implantation: adhesion molecules, proteases and cytokines.
Successful human reproduction remains an enigma, but this is slowly changing in the current era of expanding scientific knowledge. The discovery of various molecular factors such as adhesion molecules, proteases and cytokines have in recent years been at the forefront of medical research. The growing importance of immunology in particular has led to novel new immuno-modulatory therapies and inc...
