Alexithymia and interleukin variations in somatoform disorder [PDF]
, 2007 Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate if somatoform disorders (SFD) are associated with changes in the normal serum levels of important interleukins, and further, to establish if these changes are related to the presence and severity

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010 The initial encounter of Leishmania with its host's immune system is important in the outcome of infection. Previous studies have shown that PBMCs from healthy volunteers (HV) exposed to Leishmania differ in IFN-γ production.

IL-13Rα2 is a Glioma-Restricted Receptor for Interleukin-13
Neoplasia, 2002 We have found that binding sites for interleukin-13 (IL-13) are overexpressed in a vast majority of high-grade astrocytomas (HGAs). These binding sites for IL-13 are distinct from the physiological receptor in that it does not bind IL-4. We also demonstrated that IL-13 receptor alpha 2 protein chain (IL-13Ralpha2), an IL-4-independent receptor for IL ...

Cytoplasmic tail of IL-13Ralpha2 regulates IL-4 signal transduction
, 2009 IL (interleukin)-4 and IL-13 are key cytokines in the pathogenesis of allergic inflammatory disease. IL-4 and IL-13 share many functional properties as a result of their utilization of a common receptor complex comprising IL-13Ralpha1 (IL-13 receptor ...

Characterization of signalling cross-talk between the EP2 and FP receptors in endometrial epithelial cells [PDF]
, 2009 Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that arise from the smooth-muscle uterine cells (myometrium) and are the most common uterine disorder occurring in as many as 30% of women over 35 years of age. Despite their frequent occurrence, the etiology of uterine

Next Generation PDE4 Inhibitors that Selectively Target PDE4B/D Subtypes: A Narrative Review
Dermatology and Therapy, 2023 For decades, topical corticosteroids have been the mainstay of treatment for mild-to-moderate inflammatory skin diseases, even though only short-term use is approved for these agents and systemic inflammation is not addressed.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Interleukin-13 and its receptors in colorectal cancer (Review)
Biomedical Reports, 2013 Interleukin (IL)-13 is an immunoregulatory cytokine secreted by numerous immune cells. Its functions are similar to those of IL-4 and they share a common receptor. This cytokine has been included in recent studies on human tumors and malignant diseases, evoking a scientific interest to investigate the role of IL-13 and its receptors as novel biomarkers

Serum levels of interleukin-2 in cancer patients: Preliminary considerations
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 1989 In order to investigate the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) in human neoplasms, we determined IL-2 and soluble IL-2 receptors (sIL-2R) in serum from 18 patients with lymphoma and 28 patients with solid tumors, with (15 cases) or without (13 cases ...
