Cellular interactions in the tumor microenvironment: the role of secretome [PDF]
Over the past years, it has become evident that cancer initiation and progression depends on several components of the tumor microenvironment, including inflammatory and immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, adipocytes, and extracellular matrix ...

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.

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy: facts and insights [PDF]
Asphyxia may cause a hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy due to an insufficient supply of oxygenated blood to the brain, which leads to a cerebral palsy. The transition state between both is called neonatal encephalopathy.

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.

Short-term one-lung ventilation does not influence local inflammatory cytokine response after lung resection [PDF]
Background: One-lung ventilation (OLV) is a ventilation procedure used for pulmonary resection which may results in lung injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the local inflammatory cytokine response from the dependent lung after OLV and its ...

A Fast Second-Order Explicit Predictor-Corrector Numerical Technique To Investigating And Predicting The Dynamic Of Cytokine Levels And Human Immune Cells Activation In Response To Gram-Positive Bacteria: Staphylococcus Aureus [PDF]
This paper develops a second-order explicit predictor-corrector numerical approach for solving a mathematical model on the dynamic of cytokine expressions and human immune cell activation in response to the bacterium staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). The proposed algorithm is at least zero-stable and second-order accurate.

Interleukin-17A and interleukin-23 in morphea
Morphea is a disease included in the group of scleroderma type autoimmune diseases. Interleukin (IL)-17A may play a role at every stage of its pathogenesis. The study aimed at evaluation of IL-17A and IL-23 (as the main cytokine which is supposed to stimulate and maintain synthesis of IL-17) in pathogenesis of morphea.The studies were performed on 41 ...

Salivary and crevicular fluid interleukins in gingivitis [PDF]
Introduction: Gingivitis is a frequent inflammatory process of the gum tissue that is mainly caused by the accumulation of plaque. The immune response against inflammatory processes is regulated in part by cytokines.
