Human mid-gestation amniotic fluid contains interleukin-16 bioactivity [PDF]
CD4-positive cells are detectable in the human fetal gastrointestinal tract from 11 weeks of gestation. Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is a chemoattractant for CD4(+) cells and, via fetal swallowing of amniotic fluid, could mediate the influx of CD4(+) cells ...

Correlation analysis of fluctuations in the Serum interleukin-38, soluble RAGE and FIAF levels in prognosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) [PDF]
Background: To explore the changes in the serum interleukin-38, soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (soluble RAGE) and Fasting-Induced Adipose Factor (FIAF) levels in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to ...

Truncated Chicken Interleukin-1β with Increased Biologic Activity [PDF]
Chicken interleukin-1β (ChIL-1β) is synthesized as a precursor molecule that unlike its mammalian counterpart, lacks a typical caspase-1 cleavage site. Therefore, it was unclear if proteolytic cleavage of ChIL-1β can occur and if cleavage might modulate ...

IL‐38 attenuates myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury by inhibiting macrophage inflammation
Background Reperfusion therapy is the most effective approach to resolve coronary occlusion, but myocardial injury caused by excessive inflammation during myocardial ischemia–reperfusion will also pose a new threat to health. Our prior study revealed the

Prevention of arthritis by interleukin 10-producing B cells [PDF]
In this study we have shown that activation of arthritogenic splenocytes with antigen and agonistic anti-CD40 gives raise to a B cell population that produce high levels of interleukin (IL)-10 and low levels of interferon (IFN)-{gamma}. Transfer of these
