چکیده

The aim of this study was to investigate expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in invasive pituitary adenomas (IPAs). The streptavidin peroxidase immunohistochemical method was employed to detect their expression in 40 cases of IPA and 40 of non-invasive pituitary adenoma (NIPA). TNF-α and IL-6 were found to be upregulated in IPA tissue compared with that of NIPA (P < 0.05). These proteins may therefore play important roles in the occurrence and progression of IPA.

The effect of continuous training and intermittent calorie restriction (ICR) on miR-146a gene expression and TNF-α and IL-6 levels in obese women

Background and Objective: Obesity is a multifactorial disease in which environmental and genetic factors are involved. Disrupting homeostasis of lipid metabolism can cause multiple disorders. Among different mechanisms that cause interpersonal differences in obesity, epigenetic factors play a key role in the expression of related genes. Also, the effect of continuous training with caloric restr...

Management of Pituitary Adenomas: Mononostril Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Surgery

Introduction: The endoscopic transsphenoidal approach for pituitary adenomas and other sellar lesions is quickly becoming the procedure of choice in their surgical management. The most common approach is binostril three-hand technique which requires a large exposure and subjects both nasal cavities to potential trauma. To reduce nasal morbidity, we employ a mononostril two-hand technique with t...

Spinacia oleracea L. extract attenuates hippocampal expression of TNF-α and IL-1β in rats exposed to chronic restraint stress

Background: Restraint stress causes inflammation in nervous system that leads to emersion of neurodegenerative diseases. Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) contains different agents with antioxidant, antiapoptosis, and hepatoprotective properties. This study examined the effect of spinach hydroalcoholic extract (SHE) on TNF-α and IL-1β expression in hippocampus of male Wistar rats exposed to chroni...
