Adult Still's disease: New horizons
Still's disease in children (systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis - JIA) and adult Still's disease (ASD) are considered as systemic autoinflammatory diseases of unknown etiology, which are based on similar immunopathogenetic mechanisms associated with ...

Kawasaki Disease and Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis – Two Ends of the Same Spectrum
Kawasaki disease (KD) and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) are two distinct systemic inflammatory diseases of childhood. Each diagnosis is based on criteria, but numerous clinical features are overlapping. As no specific diagnostic tests are

Fetal skin as a pro-inflammatory organ: Evidence from a primate model of chorioamnionitis. [PDF]
BackgroundIntrauterine infection is a primary cause of preterm birth and fetal injury. The pro-inflammatory role of the fetal skin in the setting of intrauterine infection remains poorly characterized. Whether or not inflammation of the fetal skin occurs

Molecular and functional characterization of chicken interleukin 1 receptor 2 (chIL-1R2)
: Interleukin-1 receptor type 2 (IL1R2) is a decoy receptor for exogenous IL-1. However, its functional role in chicken immunity is poorly understood. Herein, chicken IL-1R2 (chIL-1R2) was identified and functionally characterized in vivo and in vitro ...

Interleukin-1 and interleukin-1 antagonism [PDF]
The polypeptide cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) affects nearly every tissue and organ system. IL-1 is the prototype of the pro-inflammatory cytokines in that it induces the expression of a variety of genes and the synthesis of several proteins that, in turn, induce acute and chronic inflammatory changes.
