Perispinal TNF-alpha inhibition for discogenic pain.
OBJECTIVE To examine the potential of etanercept, a biological inhibitor of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF), delivered by perispinal administration, for the treatment of pain associated with intervertebral disc disease. METHODS Charts from 20 selected patients treated at our private clinic by perispinal delivery of etanercept 25 mg for severe, chronic, treatment-resistant discogenic pain w...
متن کاملCo-inhibition of NF-κB and JNK is synergistic in TNF-expressing human AML
Leukemic stem cells (LSCs) isolated from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients are more sensitive to nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) inhibition-induced cell death when compared with hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in in vitro culture. However, inadequate anti-leukemic activity of NF-κB inhibition in vivo suggests the presence of additional survival/proliferative signals that can compe...
متن کاملTNF-alpha in asthma.
Although only 5-10% of patients with asthma are relatively unresponsive to treatment with inhaled corticosteroids, refractory asthma represents an important condition, as these patients suffer considerable morbidity and mortality and consume a disproportionately large amount of health resource. Treatment options are limited and there is a large unmet clinical need for additional therapies. Tumo...
متن کاملCalpain inhibition impairs TNF-alpha-mediated neutrophil adhesion, arrest and oxidative burst.
Proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), are increased in many chronic inflammatory disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, and contribute to recruitment of neutrophils into areas of inflammation. TNF-alpha induces a stop signal that promotes neutrophil firm adhesion and inhibits neutrophil polarization and chemotaxis. Calpain is a calcium-dependent proteas...
متن کاملInhibition of TNF-alpha gene expression and bioactivity by site-specific transcription factor-binding oligonucleotides.
The present study investigated transcriptional inactivation of TNF-alpha gene by nuclear factor-binding oligonucleotides (ON) and their effects on pulmonary inflammatory responses in mice. PCR-based gene mutation and gel shift assays were used to identify specific cis-acting elements necessary for nuclear factor binding and transactivation of TNF-alpha gene by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS indu...
