The aim of our study is to elucidate changes in the content pro-inflammatory interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) anti-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-10 (IL-10) blood serum guinea pigs dynamics experimental periodontitis immobilization stress.The combined pathology (experimental stress) accompanied by a pronounced progression proinflammatory group - TNF-α IL-6 against ba...

We have characterized a novel, captured and fully functional viral interleukin (IL)-10 homologue ((OvHV)IL-10) from the gammaherpesvirus ovine herpesvirus 2. Unlike IL-10 homologues from other gammaherpesviruses, the (OvHV)IL-10 peptide sequence was highly divergent from that of the host species. The (OvHV)IL-10 gene is unique amongst virus captured genes in that it has precisely retained the o...

The balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine expression is essential for an efficient immune response the regulation of cancer development progression. This study analyzed genetic variation in IL-1?, IL-6 IL-10 genes possible associations with colorectal (CRC) liver metastases (CRLM). We examined mRNA three gene variants: IL-1? (rs1143627), (rs1800872) (rs1800795), 198 CRC, 65 CRLM p...

Background: Euphorbia plants are traditionally used in folk medicine for infections, inflammation, and cancer. Objectives: To investigate the effects of the butanolic extracts of Euphorbia micorociadia and Euphorbia osyridea on specific transcription factors and cytokines expression of T cell subsets. Methods: Activated mouse splenocytes were cultured in the presence of non-cytotoxic concentrat...

BACKGROUND IL-10 can play a vital role in immune response against HBV. Three biallelic SNPs from the transcription start site control the transcription of the IL-10 gene. An association between susceptibility to HBV and IL-10 polymorphisms has been suggested in patients with HBV infection. OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to study the association between polymorphisms in interleukin-...
