febrile collected from members of both groups and serum samples were prepared. interleukin 1β concentrations were measured using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) kit. we found that there was a difference in serum levels of interleukin 1β between fc and control  group but  it was not  significant. this result may be due to  the low number  of samples  or  the  result  of  i...

Human Rhinovirus (HRV) is associated with acute exacerbations of chronic respiratory disease. In healthy individuals, innate viral recognition pathways trigger release of molecules with direct anti-viral activities and pro-inflammatory mediators which recruit immune cells to support viral clearance. Interleukin-1alpha (IL-1α), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) have critical r...

objective(s):the neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (cgrp) has long been postulated to play an integral role in the pathophysiology of migraine. earlier studies showed that cgrp can stimulate the synthesis and release of nitric oxide (no) and cytokines from trigeminal ganglion glial cells. the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of 17β-estradiol in regulation of cgrp exp...

Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is a common gynecological disease with limited therapeutic options. Dulaglutide long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog some anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory properties; however, its action on IUA remains uncertain. The purpose of the experiments in this study was to explore effect dulaglutide elucidate mechanism provide new ideas for clinical treatment...

objective: asphyxia  is  a  major  cause  of  acute  mortality  and  chronic  neurologic  disability  in  neonates. we sought to  define  the  predictive  values  of  serum  concentrations  of  interleukin-1β  in  newborns  with perinatal asphyxia to see if there is a relation between interleukin-1β (il-1β) levels to the short term neurological deficit.  methods: this was a prospective (case-co...

traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of disability and death from injury in the world. the interleukin-1 (il-1) is a family of cytokines that act as key mediators of the inflammatory response peripherally and centrally. based on many studies, researchers found that the il-1 is the well-known molecule in relation to acute tbi in the models of both focal and diffuse injuries. the il-1 family...

oxymatrine, a potent monosomic alkaloid extracted from chinese herb sophora japonica (sophora flavescens ait.). possesses anti-inflammatory activittyes.  this study was designed to investigate the effects of oxymatrine on nuclear factor–kappa b (nf-κb) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (mapk)-dependent inflammatory responses in lipopolysaccharide (lps)-activated microglia. in this paper, bv2...

OBJECTIVE Posttraumatic epilepsy (PTE) is a significant complication following traumatic brain injury (TBI), yet the role of genetic variation in modulating PTE onset is unclear. We hypothesized that TBI-induced inflammation likely contributes to seizure development. We assessed whether genetic variation in the interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) gene, IL-1β levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum,...
