To study the effect and mechanism of Baitouweng decoction, mesalamine its combination with an enema in treatment ulcerative proctitis rats is objective study. The were divided into seven groups: Control (Normal), model (ulcerative proctitis), mesalamine, lowdose decoction combined medium-dose high-dose group. Except for control group, all induced a 5 % acetic acid solution proctitis. severity w...

Signaling through the IL-1-receptor type 1 (IL-1R1), IL-1 is required for initiation and maintenance of diverse activities of the immune system. A second receptor, IL-1R2, blocks IL-1 signal transduction. We studied expression of IL-1beta, IL-1R1, and IL-1R2 in 17 Hodgkin lymphomas (HL) by in situ hybridization (ISH). IL-1beta expressing cells, morphologically consistent with endothelial cells ...

background: approximately 10-14% of the clinically acknowledged pregnancies end with spontaneous abortion at caucasian population. possible immunologic causes of recurrent miscarriages have been extensively researched. the change in the cytokines balance synthesis in favor of those synthesized by th2 cells with an increase of interleukin 6 (il6) and interleukin10 (il10) secretion is considered ...

Proinflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1 and IL-6 exert pleiotropic effects on the neuro-immuno-endocrine system. Previously, we showed that IL-1 receptor antagonist-deficient (IL-1Ra(-/-)) mice show a lean phenotype due to an abnormal lipid metabolism. On the contrary, it was reported that IL-6(-/-) mice exhibit obesity after 6 months of age. This study sought to assess the roles...
