1. Interleukin-12 as a biomarker of the beneficial effects of food restriction in mice receiving high fat diet or high carbohydrate diet
The impact of food restriction (FR) during 56 days on serum levels of cytokines in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) or high-carbohydrate diet (HCD) were evaluated. The amount of food was reduced 50% for HFD-FR and HCD-FR groups compared to mice receiving free access to HFD (HFD group) or HCD (HCD group). We quantified the serum levels of basic fibroblast growt

2. Comparison of primary human gingival fibroblasts from an older and a young donor on the evaluation of cytotoxicity of denture adhesives
Abstract Denture adhesives (DA) improve the retention and stability of ill-fitting dentures, especially for older adults. These materials should be biocompatible, i.e., they cannot cause undesired biological responses and be non-cytotoxic to oral tissues. However, in vitro testing of DA biocompatibility employing primary cell culture may possibly be affected

3. Interleucina-6 como marcador de mortalidade na fase precoce da sepse grave e choque séptico.
Sepsis and multiple organ failure are the most important causes of death in critically ill patients. Despite the groundbreaking therapeutic and diagnostic resources, mortality rates are still high. A number of inflammatory mediators have been evaluated due to their role as potential markers of the presence and severity of inflammatory response and organ dysf

4. Human interleukin 6 is a direct promoter of maturation of megakaryocytes in vitro.
The response of cells of the murine megakaryocytic lineage to human interleukin 6 (IL-6) was assessed in serum-depleted cultures using a variety of biological assays. IL-6 alone had no influence on megakaryocytic colony formation but augmented the numbers of these colonies induced by the multipotent colony-stimulating factor interleukin 3. However, in liquid

5. Cloning and expression of JE, a gene inducible by platelet-derived growth factor and whose product has cytokine-like properties.
The platelet-derived growth factor-inducible gene JE has been widely used as a molecular marker for the cellular response to growth factors, antimitogenic agents, and other biological response modifiers; however, the structure of the JE gene and the nature of its encoded protein have not been previously described. We present here structural and regulatory fe

6. Unique molecular surface features of in vivo tolerized T cells
Differential expression of surface markers can frequently be used to distinguish functional subsets of T cells, yet a surface phenotype unique to T cells induced into an anergic state has not been described. Here, we report that CD4 T cells rendered anergic in vivo by superantigen can be identified by loss of the 6C10 T cell marker. Inoculation of Vβ8.1 T c

7. Levels of Cytokines and Immune Activation Markers in Plasma in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection: Quality Control Procedures
Procedures for quality control (QC) in a laboratory that concentrates on cytokine and soluble marker measurements in biological fluids are outlined. Intra-assay, interassay, and interlaboratory experiences are presented. Plasma and serum β2-microglobulin (β2M) and neopterin test data are presented in greatest detail, along with substantial tumor necrosis f

8. Role of Cytokines and Major Histocompatibility Complex Restriction in Mouse Resistance to Infection with a Natural Recombinant Strain (Type I-III) of Toxoplasma gondii
Herein we characterized various genetic markers and the biological behavior of a natural recombinant strain of Toxoplasma gondii (P-Br). From nine genetic markers analyzed, three (B1, ROP1, and SAG1) and three (cS10-A6, GRA6, and SAG3) markers belong to parasites from the type I and type III lineages, respectively. The SAG2 and L363 loci were shown to be typ

9. Serum p55 and p75 tumour necrosis factor receptors as markers of disease activity in juvenile chronic arthritis.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the expression of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) and its soluble receptors (p55 and p75) in the sera and synovial fluid of patients with juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA), and their correlation with disease activity parameters. METHODS: Ninety eight sera from 45 patients with JCA (14 systemic, 12 polyarticular, 19 pauciarticu
