Tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced angiogenesis depends on in situ platelet-activating factor biosynthesis
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha, a potent inhibitor of endothelial cell growth in vitro, is angiogenic in vivo. Therefore, it was suggested that the angiogenic properties of this agent might be consequent to the production of secondary mediators. Since TNF-alpha stimulates the synthesis of platelet-activating factor (PAF) by monocytes and endothelial cells, we investigated the possible involv...
متن کاملEvaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
متن کاملSynergistic effect of platelet-activating factor and tumor necrosis factor-alpha on corneal myofibroblast apoptosis.
PURPOSE Elimination of myofibroblasts after repair of corneal injury is essential for the maintenance of corneal transparency. In the current study, the role of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in combination with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in corneal myofibroblast apoptosis was explored. METHODS Porcine corneal myofibroblasts (PCMs) were obtained from subcultured fibroblasts plated at...
متن کاملNuclear Factor B Dependency of Platelet-activating Factor-induced Angiogenesis
This study investigated the mechanisms of platelet-activating factor (PAF)-induced angiogenesis in a mouse model of Matrigel implantation. PAF induced a doseand time-dependent angiogenic response. Inhibitors of nuclear factor (NF) B expression or action, including antisense oligonucleotides to the p65 subunit of NF B (p65 antisense) and antioxidants such as -tocopherol and N-acetyl-L-cysteine, ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Aerobic Training on Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha, Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 alpha & Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene Expression in Cardiac Tissue of Diabetic Rats
Objective: The goal of this research was to determine the influence of 4 weeks aerobic training on gene expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the cardiac tissue of diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In an experimental study, 30 male wistar rats were partitioned into three groups (n=10), d...
