Angiogenin, Angiopoietin-1, Angiopoietin-2, and Endostatin Serum Levels in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(2011)Background: Angiogenesis is a complex process, involving a great number of mediators. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases, holding a critical role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The objective ... -
Anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan antibodies and antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies in Greek patients with inflammatory bowel disease
(2001)OBJECTIVES: The combined measurement of perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (pANCA) and anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan antibodies (ASCA) has recently been suggested as a valuable diagnostic approach ... -
Calprotectin, Calgranulin C, and Other Members of the S100 Protein Family in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(2011)Background Since their discovery, S100 proteins have been associated with diverse diseases of inflammatory, degenerative, or malignant nature. Due to their participation in inflammation, they have also been studied with ... -
CUZD1 and Anti-CUZD1 Antibodies as Markers of Cancer and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
(2013)CUZD1, the CUB, and zona pellucida-like domains-containing protein 1, is a newly identified antigen of pancreatic autoantibodies (PAB) giving a reticulogranular pattern in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases, and in ... -
Drug-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(2011)Conservative management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is based on a combination of drugs, including amino-salicylates (ASAs), steroids, antibiotics, immunosuppressives and biologic agents. Although various side effects ... -
FCGR polymorphisms in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with Fc-containing TNF inhibitors
(2015)Objectives: Reproducible association of a functional polymorphism in FCGR2A with response to a TNF inhibitor (TNFi) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) led us to explore other Fc gamma R functional polymorphisms. ... -
Genetic variants of homocysteine/folate metabolism pathway and risk of inflammatory bowel disease: a synopsis and meta-analysis of genetic association studies
(2010)A synopsis and meta-analysis of studies that investigated the association between genetic variants involved in the homocysteine/folate metabolism pathway and risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) were conducted. Four ... -
Increased incidence of anti-cardiolipin antibodies in patients with hepatitis C is not associated with aetiopathogenetic link to anti-phospholipid syndrome
(2000)Objective Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been found to be associated with various diseases known as extra-hepatic manifestations of HCV. Recently, HCV has been implicated as a cause of the antiphospholipid ... -
Increased serum levels of YKL-40 in patients with inflammatory bowel disease
(2003)Background and aims: Initiation of a fibrotic process has been suggested as part of the intestinal response to chronic inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease. YKL-40 has been proposed as a new serum marker of fibrosis. ... -
Is there evidence to claim or deny association between variants of the multidrug resistance gene (MDR1 or ABCB1) and inflammatory bowel disease?
(2012)Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex disease with a genetic background. Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the two main types of IBD. There is indication that variants in the MDR1 ... -
Moderate performance of serum S100A12, in distinguishing inflammatory bowel disease from irritable bowel syndrome
(2010)Background: S100A12, a calcium-binding proinflammatory protein secreted by granulocytes, has been associated with different diseases of inflammatory origin, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, the ... -
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in inflammatory bowel disease: association with pathophysiology of inflammation, established markers, and disease activity
(2012)Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a multi-potent 25-kDa protein mainly secreted by neutrophils. In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), overexpression of NGAL in colon epithelium has been previously shown. ... -
Psychiatric factors in patients with ulcerative colitis according to disease activity
(1996)In order to examine psychiatric symptoms, hostility and stressful life events in patients suffering from Ulcerative Colitis (UC) during the phases of active disease and remission, a consecutive sample of twenty five UC ... -
Readressing the Role of Toll-Like Receptor-4 Alleles in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Colitis, Smoking, and Seroreactivity
(2013)Toll-like receptor (TLR) polymorphisms, and especially TLR-4 Asp299Gly and TLR-4 Thr399Ile, have been linked with Crohn's disease (CD) and to a lesser extent with ulcerative colitis (UC), CD behavior, and compromised ... -
Renal Manifestations and Complications of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
(2011)Renal manifestations and complications are not rare in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and may present as nephrolithiasis, amyloidosis, tubulointerstitial nephritis, and glomerulonephritis. Symptoms of renal ...
