Up-regulation of IL-17 is associated with bioactive IL-8 expression in Helicobacter pylori-infected human gastric mucosa.
Helicobacter pylori (HP)-associated gastritis is characterized by an increased number of acute and chronic inflammatory cells secreting cytokines that contribute to maintain and expand the local inflammation. Locally induced IL-8 is believed to play a major role in the HP-associated acute inflammatory response. Factors/mechanisms that regulate IL-8 induction are, however, not fully understood. ...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most common autoimmune disease. It is characterized by the presence of hundreds of autoantibodies against many organs and tissues, including the presence of a large number of autoantibodies, which are specific to self-antigens mainly of nuclear origin such as Smith antigen, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), anti-Sjögren’s syndrome-related antigen A and B (SS...
متن کاملIL-1β (+3953 C/T) and IL-8 (-251 A/T) Gene Polymorphisms in H. pylori Mediated Gastric Disorders
Background: Previous studies imply that IL-1 and IL-8 gene variations may play a crucial role in the genetic predisposition to different gastric disorders upon H. pylori infection. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the potential association between the prevalence of certain polymorphic sites and the risk of gastric disorders in Iranian population. Methods: One hundred and forty ...
متن کاملIL-21 is highly produced in Helicobacter pylori-infected gastric mucosa and promotes gelatinases synthesis.
Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is associated with gastric inflammation and ulceration. The pathways of tissue damage in Hp-infected subjects are complex, but evidence indicates that T cell-derived cytokines enhance the synthesis of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) that contribute to mucosal ulceration and epithelial damage. In this study, we have examined the role of the T cell cytokine IL-2...
متن کاملProduction of IL-17
Th17 cells are important mediators of autoimmunity, yet the mechanisms by which they are controlled are not fully understood. Studies in mice, including a recent article in Nature Immunology by Yang et al., show that IL-2 is an important inhibitory factor for the differentiation of Th17 cells, inducing phosphorylation of STAT5, which outcompetes STAT3 binding at the IL-17 locus. In humans howev...
