A Brief History of IL-1 and IL-1 Ra in Rheumatology [PDF]
The history of what, in 1979, was called interleukin-1 (IL-1), orchestrator of leukocyte inter-communication, began many years before then, initially by the observation of fever induction via the endogenous pyrogen (EP) (1974) and then in rheumatology on the role in tissue destruction in rheumatoid diseases via the induction of collagenase and PGE2 in ...

The Epistatic Interrelationships of IL-1, IL-1 Receptor Antagonist, and the Type I IL-1 Receptor [PDF]
Abstract Mice lacking the gene for the IL-1R antagonist (IL-1ra) show abnormal development and homeostasis as well as altered responses to infectious and inflammatory stimuli. A reduction in the level of IL-1 signaling, either by deletion of the receptor or increased expression of IL-1ra, does not affect development or homeostasis ...

Effects of IL‐1 receptor accessory protein on IL‐1 binding [PDF]
Interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) is an important pro‐inflammatory cytokine that exerts its diverse biological functions by binding to a receptor complex consisting of two transmembrane proteins, type I IL‐1 receptor (IL‐1RI) and IL‐1 receptor accessory protein (IL‐1RAcP).

Anti-GBM glomerulonephritis involves IL-1 but is independent of NLRP3/ASC inflammasome-mediated activation of caspase-1 [PDF]
IL-1b and IL-18 are proinflammatory cytokines that contribute to renal immune complex disease, but whether IL-1b and IL-18 are mediators of intrinsic glomerular inflammation is unknown.

Early production of IL-22 but not IL-17 by peripheral blood mononuclear cells exposed to live Borrelia burgdorferi: the role of monocytes and interleukin-1 [PDF]
If insufficiently treated, Lyme borreliosis can evolve into an inflammatory disorder affecting skin, joints, and the CNS. Early innate immunity may determine host responses targeting infection. Thus, we sought to characterize the immediate cytokine storm

IL-1 is a well-characterized proinflammatory cytokine that is involved in host defense and autoimmune diseases. IL-1 can promote activation of T cells, including Th1 cells, Th2 cells and Th17 cells, and B cells, suggesting that IL-1 may contribute to the development of various types of T-cell-mediated diseases.

Раціоналізація підходів до ведення епізіотомної рани
Епізіотомія - це хірургічна маніпуляція, що стала однією з найчастіших хірургічних процедур у світі. За рекомендаціями Всесвітньої організації охорони здоров’я, загальна частота епізіотомій не повинна перевищувати 10% вагінальних пологів.

The role of interleukin genes in the course of depression
Research studies conducted in recent years have confirmed that in the absence of medical illnesses, depressive disorders are associated with upregulation of many inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-aplha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 and 6 (IL ...

Molecular mechanisms of IL-18BP regulation in DLD-1 cells: pivotal direct action of the STAT1/GAS axis on the promoter level [PDF]
Interleukin (IL)-18, formerly known as interferon (IFN)-γ-inducing factor, is a crucial mediator of host defence and inflammation. Control of IL-18 bioactivity by its endogenous antagonist IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP) is a major objective of ...
