Diabetes and Inflammation

Herz, 2004
In the last 50 years health care systems throughout the world have faced a new epidemic dual disease: cardiovascular disease (CVD)-diabetes mellitus. Nowadays, CVD is the leading cause of death in all western countries, and 60% of deaths for ischemic heart disease and stroke occur in developing countries with fixing resources.

Inflammation and Pregnancy

Reproductive Sciences, 2009
Inflammation is a process by which tissues respond to various insults. It is characterized by upregulation of chemokines, cytokines, and pattern recognition receptors that sense microbes and tissue breakdown products. During pregnancy, the balance of Th1 (cell-mediated immunity) and Th2 (humoral immunity) cytokines is characterized by an initial ...

Thiazolidinediones and inflammation

Lupus, 2005
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are selective ligands of peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor g increasingly used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Both in vitro and in vivo studies provide evidence that TZDs have anti-inflammatory properties. TZDs inhibit macrophage activation and decrease inflammatory cytokine expression and release in macrophage

Inflammation in hypertension

Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2006
In this review we summarize the recent evidence that highlights the involvement of low-grade inflammation in the development and pathophysiology of hypertension.Essential hypertension is characterized by increased peripheral vascular resistance to blood flow, due in large part to vascular remodeling. Vascular changes in hypertension are associated with

Suicide and Inflammation

2023
Suicide is a leading cause of death worldwide. Although the neurobiological dysfunction underlying suicidal behavior remains unclear, recent work suggests that the immune system may play a role in the pathophysiology of suicide. In this chapter, we discuss a nascent body of literature suggesting that peripheral and central nervous systems (CNS ...

Inflammation revisited: inflammation versus resolution of inflammation following myocardial infarction

Basic Research in Cardiology, 2014
Myocardial infarction (MI) is the main cause for the progression of the left ventricle towards congestive heart failure. The optimal healing after MI requires timely induction and resolution of inflammation. Primarily, there have been a number of strategies applied to inhibit the post-MI inflammation but approaches that focus on the resolution of ...

Placental Inflammation

Seminars in Neonatology, 2004
Placental inflammatory disorders represent a diverse and important category of pathological processes leading to fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. These processes can be divided into two broad subcategories, those caused by micro-organisms and those caused by host immune responses to non-replicating antigens.

Vascular inflammation

Journal of the American Society of Hypertension, 2007
Inflammation of the vessel wall is involved in all stages of the course of atherothrombotic disease, from the development of early lesions to the occurrence of clinical events. Significant advances in recent years have largely improved our understanding of this phenomenon and of its influence not only on atherogenesis, but also on other intimately ...
