Role of cytokines in heart failure.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Heart failure is a complex neurohumoral and inflammatory syndrome. Studies have shown that proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1, interleukin-2, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor) are involved in cardiac depression and in the complex syndrome of heart failure. Understanding the involvement of these cytokines may enable us to reverse cardiac depression and heart failure with the use of monoclonal antibodies directed against specific cytokines that may block the downhill progression of heart failure.

Evaluation of intravenous injection of amniotic membrane stem cells to reduce inflammatory factors in heart failure
Background: Heart failure is one of the most common cardiovascular disorders and is considered a chronic, progressive and debilitating disorder. The medical treatment of this disease is accompanied by many problems. Today, stem cells are being used increasingly to reduce the problems of heart failure treatments. Since pro-inflammatory cytokines play an important role in the prognosis and progre...

The 4-ACGC isolated from BP was prepared to investigate the cardioprotective effects on attenuating chronic heart failure in vivo and in vitro. A chronic heart failure (CHF) rat model was established to investigate the cardioprotective effects of 4-ACGC. From this, several cardiac function indexes were recorded. The inflammatory markers including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Interleukin-6 (...

متن کاملTh1 and Th2 Cytokine Profiles in Malignant Pleural Effusion
Background: The alteration of Th1 and Th2 cytokine levels is the subject of controversy in pleural effusions caused by malignancy, a situation that favors a Th2 immune response. Objective: To examine the different levels of IL-4 and IL-10 (Th2 cytokines), and IL-2 and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) (Th1 cytokines) in malignant and non-malignant pleural effusions. Method: The cytokine levels in pleural fl...

Introduction: Diseases of heart failure are considered as one of the main challenges of health care systems. One of the main components of care models in heart failure is patient involvement. In this regard, the adaptation model (RAM) is one of the most popular and most widely used nursing patterns that specifically address compatibility issues. The purpose of this article is to review the adap...
