2-Oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases control hepcidin gene expression
(2008)Background/Aims: Hepcidin is a liver-produced hormone that regulates systemic iron homeostasis. Hepcidin expression is stimulated upon iron overload or inflammation while iron deficiency, anemia and tissue hypoxia are ... -
Animal models in peritoneal dialysis
(2015)Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been extensively used over the past years as a method of kidney replacement therapy for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). In an attempt to better understand the properties of the ... -
Comparison of interleukin-6 and matrix metalloproteinase expression in the subretinal fluid and the vitreous during proliferative vitreoretinopathy: Correlations with extent, duration of RRD and PVR grade
(2014)Introduction: The full extent of IL-6 involvement in PVR pathophysiology has not yet been comprehensively investigated. The aim of this study was the comparison of the IL-6 effect on MMP expression between SRF and the ... -
Damage-associated molecular patterns derived from mitochondria may contribute to the hemodialysis-associated inflammation
(2014)Inflammation is common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are released during cell necrosis or apoptosis and induce inflammation. Cell apoptosis is increased in HD ... -
High serum levels of HIF-1 alpha in psoriatic patients correlate with an over-expression of IL-6
(2013)Angiogenesis has been considered to be an important step in the initiation and progression of chronic diseases such as psoriasis. The hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1 alpha), a critical hypoxia-induced factor that ... -
Interleukin-6 and matrix metalloproteinase expression in the subretinal fluid during proliferative vitreoretinopathy: Correlation with extent, duration of RRD and PVR grade
(2012)Purpose: To investigate interleukin (IL)-6 protein levels in the subretinal fluid (SRF) of patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR); to correlate the IL-6 ... -
Predictive and prognostic value of LPS-stimulated cytokine secretion in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer
(2013)Cancer patients usually develop malnutrition which may alter their innate immune system integrity. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical relevance of chemokine response after lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulation ...
