Regulation of Type 2 Immunity in Myocardial Infarction
Type 2 immunity participates in the pathogeneses of helminth infection and allergic diseases. Emerging evidence indicates that the components of type 2 immunity are also involved in maintaining metabolic hemostasis and facilitating the healing process ...

Interleukin-2 drives cortisol secretion in an age-, dose-, and body composition-dependent way
Background: Interleukin-2 (IL-2), one of the proinflammatory cytokines, is used in the treatment of certain malignancies. In some studies, transient i ncreases in cortisol and ACTH secretion occurred.

Predictability of IL-28B-polymorphism on protease-inhibitor-based triple-therapy in chronic HCV-genotype-1 patients: A meta-analysis [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the predictability of interleukin-28B single nucleotide polymorphism rs12979860 with respect to sustained virological response (SVR) in chronically hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype-1 patients treated with a protease-inhibitor and pegylated interferon-$\alpha$ (Peg-INF-$\alpha$) based triple-therapy.

A qualitative analysis of a A$β$-monomer model with inflammation processes for Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
We introduce and study a new model for the progression of Alzheimer's disease incorporating the interactions of A$\beta$-monomers, oligomers, microglial cells and interleukins with neurons through different mechanisms such as protein polymerization, inflammation processes and neural stress reactions.
