Proinflammatory Liver and Antiinflammatory Intestinal Mediators Involved in Portal Hypertensive Rats
Proinflammatory (TNF-alpha , IL-1beta, and NO) and antiinflammatory (IL-10, CO) levels were assayed in serum, liver, and small bowel in order to verify a hypothetic inflammatory etiopathogeny of portal hypertension that could be the cause of its evolutive heterogeneity. Male Wistar rats were divided into one control group (n=11) and one group with a triple stenosing ligation of the portal vein ...
متن کاملCorrelation between proinflammatory cytokines and antiinflammatory mediators and the severity of disease in meningococcal infections.
Pro- and antiinflammatory cytokines and mediators were measured in 39 patients with acute life-threatening meningococcal infections classified into 3 groups: A, meningitis without shock (n = 20); B, meningitis with shock (n = 9); and C, shock without meningitis (n = 10). The plasma concentrations of proinflammatory endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8...
متن کاملDifferential expression patterns of proinflammatory and antiinflammatory mediators during atherogenesis in mice.
OBJECTIVE Recent advances support the current view of atherosclerosis as an inflammatory process that initiates and promotes lesion development to the point of acute thrombotic complications and clinical events. ApoE-deficient mice are a valuable model for studying the involvement of inflammatory mediators during atherogenesis. In this study, we investigated the correlation between atherosclero...
متن کاملRelease of proinflammatory and prothrombotic mediators in the brain and peripheral circulation in spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We reported previously that stroke risk factors prepared the brain stem for the development of ischemia and hemorrhage and induced the production of tumor necrosis factor following an intrathecal injection of lipopolysaccharide, a prototypic monocyte-activating stimulus. This study evaluates whether blood or brain cells of hypertensive rats produce more proinflammatory an...
متن کاملPortal Hypertensive Complications of Liver Cirrhosis
Liver cirrhosis is defined as a progressive, fibrosing process resulting in nodule formation and microvascular distortion. The number of elderly patients with cirrhosis has been increasing owing to improved management in the younger population of both cirrhosis and its associated complications. Moreover, many centres are hesitant to transplant patients beyond 65 years of age; this limitation in...
