Prostaglandins, Histamine and Platelet Activating Factor: Different Mediators in Dithranol-Induced Skin Damage
Dithranol is a potent agent in treating psoriasis but its adverse effects on intact skin have limited its usage. There are many proposed mediators for its adverse effects including prostaglandins, histamine, platelet activating factor and free radicals. In this study we examined the effect of different agents (diazepam, terfenadine, indomethacin and garlic extract) on dithranol-induced skin dam...
متن کاملCirculating inflammatory mediators during start of fever in differential diagnosis of gram-negative and gram-positive infections in leukopenic rats.
Gram-negative and gram-positive infections have been considered the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with leukopenia following chemotherapy. However, discrimination between bacterial infections and harmless fever episodes is difficult. Because classical inflammatory signs of infection are often absent and fever is frequently the only sign of infection, the aim of thi...
متن کاملAnti-peptidoglycan antibodies and Fcγ receptors are the key mediators of inflammation in Gram-positive sepsis.
Gram-positive bacteria are an important public health problem, but it is unclear how they cause systemic inflammation in sepsis. Our previous work showed that peptidoglycan (PGN) induced proinflammatory cytokines in human cells by binding to an unknown extracellular receptor, followed by phagocytosis leading to the generation of NOD ligands. In this study, we used flow cytometry to identify hos...
متن کاملExosomes: Mediators of Immune Regulation
Extracellular Vesicles, including exosomes, are small membrane fragments released from many cell types, like Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs). They were recognized as a mechanism of intercellular communication. They can transfer proteins, lipids and nucleic acids to other cells. Thus, they have many physiological (angiogenesis, coagulation and tissue repair, etc.) and pathological (e.g. in autoimm...
متن کاملNeither platelet activating factor nor leukotrienes are critical mediators of liver injury after lipopolysaccharide administration.
The intravenous administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to rats results in liver lesions characterized by the infiltration of both platelets and neutrophils into the liver and by midzonal hepatocellular necrosis. The liver injury is dependent on neutrophils, platelets and the coagulation system, as removal or inhibition of any of these components inhibits the development of hepatocellular ne...
