Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine Profile and Mortality in Febrile Patients

Lancet, The, 1998
An anti-inflammatory cytokine profile on whole-blood stimulation in vitro is associated with fatal outcome of meningococcal disease. We investigated whether an anti-inflammatory cytokine profile in the circulation is associated with adverse outcome in other infectious diseases.We enrolled 464 consecutive patients (272 men, 192 women) who presented to ...

Activin as an anti-inflammatory cytokine produced by microglia

Journal of Neuroimmunology, 2007
The main objective of the present study was to determine if activin might inhibit microglial activation. In murine MG6 microglial cell cultures, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of these cells was mitigated by pretreatment with activin as assessed by compromised up-regulation of proinflammatory markers, including IL-18, IL-6 and iNOS.

Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines: Expression and Action in the Brain

Neuroimmunomodulation, 2001
Transforming growth factor-β₁ (TGF-β₁) and interleukin (IL)-10 gene expression is equivocal in normal brain and upregulated in over a dozen central and peripheral diseases/disorders. The patterns of specific expression of cytokines differ in these diseases.

Aptamers Against Pro- and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokines: A Review

Inflammation, 2017
Inflammatory disorders result from continuous inflammation in injured sites. Many molecules are involved in this process; the inhibition of which could prevent the inflammation.

Pro- and Anti-inflammatory Cytokines in Steatosis and Steatohepatitis

Obesity Surgery, 2010
Fatty liver disease is a problem in both bariatric patients and in patients with moderate obesity. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha has been frequently measured in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with or without diabetes, but less is known about interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10.Moderately obese patients (n = 80) with histologically proven steatosis (n

Anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive cytokines

2000
Abstract The action of cytokines is under the control of several negative regulation circuits. These include glucocorticoid hormones (see Fig. 1.3, Chapter 1 and Chapter 2), soluble cytokine receptors (see Chapter 5), and anti-inflammatory/immunosuppressive cytokines.

Anti-inflammatory cytokines in subclinical carotid atherosclerosis

Neurology, 2006
Some studies have shown correlations between selected proinflammatory factors and carotid atherosclerosis. It has not been established whether anti-inflammatory cytokines are associated with carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), an ultrasound surrogate marker of atherosclerosis.

Anti-inflammatory Cytokines: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing?

The American Journal of Medicine, 2012
We read with great interest the recent article by Cavusoglu et al showing that despite in vivo and in vitro evience for a “cardioprotective” role of interleukin (IL)-10, levated baseline plasma levels of IL-10 were a strong and ndependent predictor of long-term adverse cardiovascular utcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Cytokines as Targets for Anti‐inflammatory Agents

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009
Well over a decade ago a central role of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) was first described in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) when remarkable clinical benefit was demonstrated in patients with refractory disease were treated with using either a monoclonal antibody or a soluble receptor fusion protein.

IL-16 as an Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine in Rheumatoid Synovitis

The Journal of Immunology, 1999
Abstract T lymphocytes are a major component of the inflammatory infiltrate in rheumatoid synovitis, but their exact role in the disease process is not understood. Functional activities of synovial T cells were examined by adoptive transfer experiments in human synovium-SCID mouse chimeras.
