Systemic Reduction of Interleukin-4 or Interleukin-10 Fails to Reduce the Frequency or Severity of Experimental Cytomegalovirus Retinitis in Mice with Retrovirus-Induced Immunosuppression [PDF]
Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) are key cytokines whose increased production during systemic HIV infection has been associated with decreased cellular immunity during AIDS.

Interleukin-8 in health and disease
Cytokines are among the main factors involved in indirect cell-to-cell communication in physiological and pathological conditions. In this way, cytokines are soluble and tissue-resident easily detectable biomarkers for the diagnosis and the prediction of

From Adult to Adolescent: Alignment in Clinical Trials and Outcomes in Axial Spondyloarthritis
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases encompassing axial and peripheral forms, with up to 20% of patients developing symptoms before age 16. Despite this substantial pediatric burden, treatment options for juvenile‐onset SpA (JSpA), particularly those with axial disease (axJSpA), remain limited.

Impact of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition on post- coronary artery bypass interleukin 6 release [PDF]
Background: Angiotensin 1 converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). This benefit may result from an anti- inflammatory action.

PAPP-A and osteoprotegerin, together with interleukin-8 and RANTES, are elevated in the peritoneal fluid of women with endometriosis [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether pregnancy-associated plasma protein A, glycodelin, osteoprotegerin, and soluble CD163 are possible peritoneal fluid markers for endometriosis and to compare them with the established chemokine ...

Objectives We aimed to determine whether the short‐term response to biologics in biologic‐naïve psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is better in patients initiating biologic treatment early in the disease course. Methods PsA patients who started biologic therapy from the year 2000 to 2025 were included for analysis. Patients considered in the early treatment (ET)

Plasma interleukin 8 concentrations in obese subjects with impaired glucose tolerance.
Background Interleukin 8 (IL-8) is a cytokine with atherogenic properties. In vitro studies revealed that it is produced and secreted by human adipocytes. We recently reported that plasma IL-8 is increased in obese subjects with normal glucose tolerance (

We propose a suture‐complementary approach that integrates optical skin clearing with a strain‐programmable luminescent adhesive patch. Hyaluronic acid promotes transdermal delivery of tartrazine to improve optical clearing and stabilizes its interaction with a photosensitizer. Optical clearing increases the penetration depth of visible light into skin,

A common functional variant on the pro-inflammatory Interleukin-6 gene may modify the association between long-term PM10 exposure and diabetes [PDF]
Air pollutants have been linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypothesized to act through inflammatory pathways and may induce interleukin-6 gene (IL6) in the airway epithelium. The cytokine interleukin-6 may impact on glucose homeostasis.
