Cytokines in hepatitis C-infected patients with or without opioid maintenance therapy [PDF]

Objective: Both chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and opioids cause altered blood levels of cytokines. Previous studies have investigated levels of selected groups of cytokines in patients on opioid maintenance treatment.

Schistosomiasis Burden and Its Association With Lower Measles Vaccine Responses in School Children From Rural Cameroon

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Background and Methods: Schistosomiasis is debilitating and reported to impair immune responsiveness of infected hosts. In Cameroon, mass drug administration (MDA) is used in schoolchildren to reduce transmission of S. haematobium and S. mansoni.

MiR‐513a promotes human erythroid differentiation by modulating c‐Jun

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During early human erythropoiesis, miR‐513a promoted erythroid differentiation in primary human CD34+ hematopoietic stem‐progenitor cells and human TF‐1 erythroleukemic cells by indirectly decreasing c‐Jun and phospho‐c‐Jun expression, which are associated with increased GATA1 expression.

DNA demethylation at specific CpG sites in the IL1B promoter in response to inflammatory cytokines in human articular chondrocytes

, 2009
Objective: to determine whether changes in the DNA methylation status in the promoter region of the gene encoding interleukin-1? (IL-1?) account for expression of IL1B mRNA after long-term treatment of human articular chondrocytes with inflammatory ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin and Cytokines

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1993
Biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin starts from guanosine triphosphate by the action of guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase I, which yields the first intermediate, 7,8-dihydroneopterin triphosphate. This compound is then converted by subsequent enzymes, 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin synthase and sepiapterin reductase, to tetrahydrobiopterin, the ...

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Measurement of Cytokines

Bio-Protocol, 2012
This protocol allows to measure the levels cytokines - such as VEGFs, CXCLs cytokines, PDGF or FGF - from fresh samples but also frozen tumors. The advantage of this method is to use very few micrograms of biological material and the protocol is carried ...
