Background: Salivary gland tumors are among malignancies that have high recurrence rate. Immune responses in salivary gland tumors have not been well elucidated. T helper type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cytokines have been reported to play a role in the outcome of head and neck cancers. Objective: To evaluate the serum levels of interferon gamma (IFN- γ), as the hallmark of Th1 cytokines, and interleukin-...

interleukin-4 (il-4) is produced by t-helper cells type 2 (th2) and induces ige synthesis. t-helper cells type 1 (th1) produce interferon-gamma (ifn-gamma) which suppresses th2 and reduces il-4 induced ige production. in this :;tudy , we demonstrated that the levels of specific ige in the serum of atopic children (n=20) were elevated while il-4 production was increased and ifn-gamma secretion w...

Spleen cell populations depleted of both B and T lymphocytes produce interleukin 4 (IL-4) in response to stimulation with immunoglobulins bound to the surface of culture dishes. In the presence of interleukin 3 (IL-3), plate-bound (PB) IgE and PB-IgG1, IgG2a, and IgG2b are excellent stimulants, whereas PB-IgA and PB-IgM fail to stimulate IL-4 production. In the absence of IL-3, PB-IgE stimulate...

Objective(s):Although recent investigations have shown chronic inflammation and inflammation-associated diseases might be ameliorated by exercise; little is known about the relation between exercise training with anti/pro-inflammatory cytokines. Materials and Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted to compare interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-13, interferon gamma (IFN-γ) le...

Objective: To observe the efficacy of Montelukast combined with sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) in treatment children obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) complicated allergic rhinitis (AR).
 Methods: This is a prospective study. A total 102 OSAHS admitted to Hunan Children’s Hospital from April 2020 2021 were selected and randomly divided into two groups: group two-drug combi...

objective: macrophages influence their environment and surrounding immune cells as soon as stimulators affect them. different sources of macrophages induce different reactions in their neighboring immune cells,which result in non-uniform immunologic outcomes. in this experimental research, we compare the behavior of peritoneal macrophages to lipopolysaccharide (lps) stimulation from balb/cmice ...

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in apoptosis, differentiation and proliferation. The intensity of IL4 response depends upon binding to its receptor, IL-4R. The therapeutic efficiency of interleukins can be increased by generating structural mutants having greater stability. In the present work, attempts were made to increase the stability of human I...
