extra-cellular levels (serum) of heat shock protein 70 is influenced by various stressors such as exercise and it has been shown that this protein affects the proinflammatory cytokines in human and animal samples. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of endurance training on serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines (tnf-?, il-1?, il-6 and hsp70) in trained and untrained rats. fo...

Background: Preeclampsia is a major cause of mortality and morbidity and is also a leading cause of preterm birth and intrauterine growth retardation. Several studies have reported abnormal levels of cytokines in women with preeclampsia. Objectives: To detect serum levels of various cytokines in pregnant women with and without preeclampsia in the third trimester of pregnancy. Methods: Thirty pa...

Background: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease with the growth of endometrial cells out of uterus and in the peritoneal cavity. T cell subsets participate in the establishment and progress of the disease by producing different cytokines. Objective: To investigate a group of cytokines related to Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg subsets within both peripheral blood...

Th1 lymphocytes produce cytokines such as IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α, TNF-β and GM-CSF and play an important role in the increase of delaying sensitivity and defense against intracellular pathogens. IFN-γ is the most important Th1 cell cytokine that induces the production of IgG, activation of macrophages,enhancing phagocytosis, and also increasing MHC class I and class II mo...

Abstract Background Previous studies found that S100A9 may involve in the pathophysiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). However, role was unclear CAP. The goal to explore correlations serum with severity and prognosis CAP patients based on a prospective cohort study. Methods A total 220 110 control subjects were recruited. Demographic clinical data collected. Serum inflammatory cytokin...

Background: Despite observed post Sulfur Mustard (SM) exposure hemolysis, serum bilirubin concentration doesn’t significantly increase in SM-exposed casualties. The concentration of serum bilirubin can be related to serum levels of inflammatory cytokines. Objectives: In this study, the relationship between the serum levels of Interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1β, IL-1Ra, Tumor Necrotizing Factor (TNF)-α ...
