Expression of inflammatory cytokines in placentas from women with preeclampsia.
It is postulated that inadequate remodeling of the uterine spiral arteries in preeclampsia leads to focal ischemia and generation of inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF alpha) and interleukins (ILs), by the placenta. Our objective was to compare TNF alpha, IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 levels in placentas from patients with preeclampsia and normal term pregnancies. Beca...
متن کاملDifferences in the Expression of TLRs and Inflammatory Cytokines in Pre-Eclamptic Compared with Healthy Pregnant Women
Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is one of the most complex and life-threatening pregnancy disorders and is considered as a major cause of mortality among mothers and fetuses worldwide. Although the exact etiology of PE is not well known several lines of evidence support an immunological etiology for PE. Objective: To investigate the differences in the expression of TLRs 2, 4, 5, and 6 and a group...
متن کاملInflammatory Responses of Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Vitro Differ from Healthy Women
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 ...
متن کاملNovel expression and regulation of voltage-dependent potassium channels in placentas from women with preeclampsia.
Preeclampsia is associated with structural/functional alterations in placental and maternal vasculature. Voltage-dependant potassium channels encoded by KCNQ1-5 genes have been detected in several types of blood vessels where they promote vascular relaxation. Voltage-dependant potassium channel function can be modulated by KCNE1-5-encoded accessory proteins. The aim of this study was to determi...
متن کاملEvaluating the Serum Levels of Inflammatory Cytokines in Women with Various Causes of Infertility during Controlled Ovarian Stimulation Cycles
Introduction: Concentration of inflammatory cytokines in serum levels and their role in the success of reproductive cycles with female infertility factors is unknown, so the aim of this study was to evaluate the serum levels of inflammatory cytokines in women with different causes of female infertility during controlled ovarian stimulation cycles. Methods: In this case-control study, 25 infert...
