Interleukin‐8 in neonatal sepsis
Acta Paediatrica, 2001This study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy and kinetics of interleukin 8 (IL-8) as a test for early-onset bacterial infections (EOBI) in neonates and to examine whether IL-8 would allow unnecessary antibiotic therapy to be reduced. First, IL-8 was measured 378 times on admission, along with C-reactive protein (CRP), immature to total neutrophil ...

Interleukin 8 in Behçet's Disease
The Journal of Dermatology, 1994AbstractActivated peripheral polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and infiltration of PMNs into the lesions are characteristic findings of Behçet's disease (BD). A variety of cytokines, including interleukin 8 (IL‐8), have been shown to activate PMNs. To investigate the role of IL‐8 in the development of BD lesions, IL‐8 production in vivo and in vitro ...

Interleukin 8 in the Human Colostrum
Neonatology, 2002We investigated the postpartum changes in colostral interleukin (IL) 8 concentrations during the first 3 postpartum days and examined the IL-8 production of colostral cells at the levels of both protein and mRNA. Colostrum samples were obtained from healthy mothers after full-term delivery.

Amniochorion: A Source of Interleukin‐8
American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 1995PROBLEM: Preterm labor and premature rupture of the membranes are major complications of pregnancy. We have reported the possible role of amniochorionic membrane in the production of inflammatory cytokines and the early onset of labor. This study was conducted to detect the expression of IL‐8 mRNA and peptide production in cultured fetal membranes ...

Interleukin-8 and the chemokine family
International Journal of Immunopharmacology, 1995Two subfamilies of chemokines are distinguished depending on the arrangement of the first two of four conserved cysteines, which are either separated by one amino acid (CXC chemokines) or adjacent (CC chemokines). IL-8 and the other CXC chemokines act preferentially on neutrophils, while the CC chemokines (MCP-1, MCP-2, MCP-3, RANTES, MIP-1 alpha and ...

Interleukin 8 production and interleukin 8 receptor expression in human myometrium and leiomyoma
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2001Interleukin 8 is a potent chemoattractant cytokine that is expressed in a variety of human tumors and is known to induce mitogenesis. We aimed to investigate the production of interleukin 8 and the expression of its receptor in myometrium and leiomyoma, in which we hypothesized that interleukin 8 may contribute to cellular proliferation.Myometrial and ...

Studies have demonstrated that the pro-angiogenic cytokine interleukin-8 (IL-8) and the IL-8 receptors likely have a role in the growth and metastasis of various solid tumors. We hypothesized that in vivo neuroblastoma expresses IL-8 and the IL-8 receptors A and B, and that factors known to regulate IL-8 expression are present and active in the ...

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2000
Background. The chemokine interleukin‐8 is present in a variety of tumor types with suggested effects on proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. Elevated levels of interleukin‐8 are present in cyst fluids from malignant ovarian tumors. The origin and potential targets for this chemokine in ovarian tumors were investigated in this study.Methods ...

Neutrophil activation by monomeric interleukin-8
Cytokine, 1994Interleukin-8 (IL-8), a pro-inflammatory protein, has been shown by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and x-ray techniques to exist as a homodimer. An IL-8 analog was chemically synthesized, with the amide nitrogen of leucine-25 methylated to selectively block formation of hydrogen bonds between monomers and thereby prevent dimerization. This analog was
