Inflammation may play a major role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). In this meta-analysis, we determined whether maternal polymorphisms and serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were associated with PE. All studies investigating the associations between PE and maternal polymorphisms of TNF-α-308G/A, IL-6-174G/C, and IL-10-1082A/G or serum concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 were reviewed. We found that neither maternal TNF-α-308G/A (p=0.86, odds ratio [OR]=0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.76-1.25), IL-6 174G/C (p=0.14, OR=1.23, 95% CI, 0.93-1.61), nor IL-10-1082A/G (p=0.72, OR=1.07, 95% CI, 0.75-1.52) were associated with PE. On the other hand, maternal TNF-α (p<0.00001, weighted mean difference [WMD]=19.63 pg/ml, 95% CI, 18.54-20.72 pg/ml), IL-6 (p<0.00001, WMD=6.58 pg/ml, 95% CI, 5.49-7.67 pg/ml), and IL-10 (p=0.0005, WMD=19.30 pg/ml, 95% CI, 8.42-30.17 pg/ml) concentrations were significantly higher in PE patients versus controls. Our findings strengthen the clinical evidence that PE is accompanied by exaggerated inflammatory responses, but do not support TNF-α-308G/A, IL-6-174G/C, and IL-10-1082A/G as candidate susceptibility loci in PE. 相似文献

Muscles of candidates work at various grades of intensity during handball exercises according to the pace of exercise. The movement pattern involves large number of contractions, feints, dodges and numerous changes in movements, all of which are highly responsible for changes in trainer's organs, including the immune system. In this study, inflammatory mediators involving interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in serum of 18 Egyptian male handball players, selected from Tanta club handball under 21 year’s old team, were analyzed. The analysis was established on samples collected just before and immediately after intermediate reasonable exercise via enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Moreover, white blood cells (WBCs) count and other hematological markers including hemoglobin %, hematocrit value, and platelet count were assessed. Our results demonstrated a significant decrease in the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α after exercise compared to those before exercise. This was coupled with an increase in WBCs and platelets count. It is also noteworthy that there was a significant positive correlation between serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the study subjects coupled with a significant negative correlation between IL-6 and WBCs after the exercise. Therefore, it is concluded that intermediate reasonable exercises result in decreased levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, which result in decreasing of the inflammation and help in healing and rapid recovery of muscles of the candidates. 相似文献

Aging is associated with low-grade increases in circulating levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6. A wide range of factors, including smoking, obesity, infections, the decline in sex hormones, and the genotype, induce and modify this age-related inflammatory activity, which on the other hand may cause age-related pathology. Several classical risk factors are indeed controlled by TNF-alpha and IL-6. TNF-alpha induces insulin resistance and endothelial dysfunction, IL-6 promotes procoagulant changes and both cytokines cause dyslipidaemia. Moreover, systemic low-grade elevations in both cytokines have been related to cardiovascular diseases and TNF-alpha has been associated with Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. TNF-alpha and IL-6 are also differently and independently of each other associated with mortality in elderly populations, indicating points of distinction in the biological effects of the two cytokines. Moreover, the association between cytokines and mortality is independent of co-morbidity, suggesting that low-grade increases in circulating cytokines are strong, independent risk factors of morbidity and mortality in old populations, although life style factors and co-morbidity may modulate levels. 相似文献

Adipose tissue-derived cytokines are presumably involved in obesity-associated pathologies including type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis. Here we studied the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression dynamics of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8 and IL-10 in human adipose tissue biopsies, in preadipocyte-derived adipocytes, and in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived adipocytes. TNFalpha, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 secretions by adipose tissue explants were increased 5.5-, 19.5-, 3.5- and 12.5-fold, respectively, by LPS (1 microg/mL) administration. Concordantly, IL-6 and IL-8 release was dose-dependently induced in MSC-derived adipocytes by LPS (>10 pg/mL). In contrast, TNFalpha and IL-10 remained undetectable even at the highest LPS dose (1 microg/mL) after 24h. In MSC- and preadipocyte-derived adipocytes, respectively, exposure to LPS evoked a weak and transient induction of TNFalpha mRNA whereas induction of IL-6 and IL-8 mRNA were pronounced and sustained for at least 24h. Basal glucose uptake, lipolysis and IL-6 mRNA were induced by exogenous TNFalpha (10 ng/mL) but not by IL-6 (10 ng/mL), IL-8 (100 ng/mL) and IL-10 (20 ng/mL). In this adipocyte model TNFalpha induces well known metabolic effects, but together with previous reports these data suggest that inflammation-induced TNFalpha may derive from non-adipocyte sources in adipose tissue, likely to be macrophages. 相似文献

The precise clinical manifestations of tuberculosis are likely to result from a complex interaction between the host and the pathogen. We took serum samples from a group of patients with a variety of clinical and radiological stages of pulmonary tuberculosis in order to characterize tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) response. We further evaluated whether the levels of TNF-alpha, IL-4 and soluble IL-2R are related with each other, and also evaluated the levels of TNF-alpha, IL-4 and sIL-2R after anti-tuberculosis therapy and relation with radiologic scores. Forty-three inpatients with active pulmonary tuberculosis and 19 healthy controls participated in the study. Patients were divided into four categories radiologically on chest X-ray (minimal, moderate-advanced, far-advanced and with miliary infiltration). Concentrations of TNF-alpha (20.9+/-10/15.4+/-8 pg/ml) and sIL-2R (2569+/-842/1444+/-514 pg/ml) were statistically different between patients and controls (p=0.02 and p=0.0001, respectively). Before chemotherapy there was a positive correlation between TNF-alpha and sIL-2R (r=0.34), but there was no correlation between IL-4 and TNF-alpha, and between IL-4 and sIL-2R (r=-0.23 and r=-0.22). The TNF-alpha level was not statistically different in four groups before and after chemotherapy. Results of this study provided some evidence confirming the previously reported role of TNF-alpha, IL-4 and sIL 2R in the control of tuberculosis, but these cytokines were not found related with disease severity. 相似文献

In human orthotopic liver transplantation (LTX) intraoperative elevations of TNF-alpha (> 100 pg/ml) and IL-6 (>800 pg/ml) have been found to correlate with early post-operative rejections and infections respectively. In this study the possible mechanism responsible for the induction of these cytokines has been investigated during liver allografting in 38 recipients. Intraoperative elevations of TNF-alpha (> 100 pg/ml) were detected in the majority of pre-transplant endotoxin positive recipients (8/12, > 10 endotoxin units/ml), the patients turning endotoxin positive until the end of grafting (3/5), and in a subgroup (6/21 patients), apparently endotoxin negative for the whole operation. Therefore endotoxin (ET) seems to stimulate release of TNF-alpha in approximately 50% of the patients, whereas sensitized Kupffer graft cells or immediate allograft reactivity of the host are likely to account for the remaining TNF-alpha positive cases. Elevations of IL-6 > 800 pg/ml) were found in approximately 50% of the TNF-alpha positive cases, indicating partially independent regulatory pathways for IL-6 induction in the TNF-alpha negative patients. In agreement with a previous study, 11/13 (85%) of the intraoperative TNF-alpha positive recipients rejected their grafts within the first 10 days post-operatively. These data demonstrate that ET/infection associated as well as ET independent/reperfusion associated intraoperative TNF-alpha elevations, promote the initiation of allograft rejection in human liver transplantation. The transient and low endotoxaemia caused by the liver grafting procedure performed without veno-venous bypass seems to be of minor importance in the intraoperative induction of TNF-alpha. 相似文献

C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA) are acute-phase proteins mainly synthesized by the liver in response to some cytokines. They are potentially useful to diagnosing infection and monitoring different clinical conditions. The aim of this study was to measure SAA and CRP in maternal and cord blood during and after delivery and try to correlate these proteins with tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interleukin-8. Acute-phase proteins and cytokines were measured by ELISA in 24 healthy pregnant women undergoing vaginal delivery or Cesarean section. Cord blood samples in addition to maternal blood were collected. SAA and CRP reached the maximum maternal serum levels 24 hours after delivery, while cytokines remained constant over time. SAA and CRP were significantly higher in maternal serum than in newborn's (P< .001) at the moment of delivery. SAA and CRP, regardless of the type of delivery, reproduce the common pattern observed in most inflammatory conditions. Proinflammatory cytokine serum levels do not mirror the increase in SAA and CRP levels. 相似文献

Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and soluble interleukin 6 receptor (sIL-6R) have been studied as risk factors of cardiovascular disease in longitudinal studies. However, it is unknown about their long-term intra-individual variations and whether single measurements of these cytokines and receptor are reliable biomarkers in epidemiological studies. In this study, serum levels of TNF-alpha, IL-6, and sIL-6R were assayed by ELISAs in 36 young, healthy women from whom three blood samples were collected at 12-month intervals over 2 years, and the intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were estimated. The ICC of 0.73 (95% CI=0.49-0.79) for TNF-alpha was comparable to those of other commonly used biomarkers, justifying its use in epidemiological studies. The ICC of 0.48 (95% CI=0.25-0.58) for IL-6 was not optimal. However, IL-6 has been demonstrated as a consistent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, suggesting it could still be a useful biomarker if its disease association is substantial. The ICC of 0.36 (95% CI=0.10-0.47) for sIL-6R was relatively low, and multiple samples would need to be collected in prospective studies for this receptor. 相似文献

The phagocytosis of IgG-coated erythrocytes (EIgG) has been shown to augment the bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated increase in serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) levels. The present study evaluated the role of Fcgamma-receptor (FcgammaR) signaling and complement activation in the effect of EIgG on the TNF-alpha response to LPS. The role of FcgammaR was determined using FcR gamma-chain knockout mice that lack functional FcgammaRI and FcgammaRIII. In wild-type animals, EIgG caused a 16-fold augmentation of the serum TNF-alpha response to LPS, whereas there was no augmentation in the FcgammaR-deficient animals. Heat-damaged erythrocytes also augmented the TNF-alpha response to LPS. This effect was absent in FcgammaR-deficient animals. An IgG antibody against heated erythrocytes was detected in mouse serum. The complement activation caused by EIgG had little effect on the LPS-stimulated increase in serum TNF-alpha levels as indicated by activation of complement with cobra venom factor or IgM-coated erythrocytes as well as studies with C5-deficient mice. These results indicate that FcgammaR signaling primarily mediates the augmented serum TNF-alpha response to LPS caused by EIgG. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of dietary n-3 and n-6 fatty acids on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production and macrophage (MO) activation state. Rats were fed diets containing 12.5% linseed oil (LO) or corn oil (CO) that are high in n-3 and n-6 fatty acids respectively. The LO diet resulted in a significant increase in basal and endotoxin (LPS)-induced levels of TNF-alpha from resident MO cultured in vitro. There was no difference between the diets in LPS-induced TNF-alpha production by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) elicited macrophages. Variable responses were also observed between LO and CO MO in response to prostaglandin E2, indomethacin (INDO), and the prostaglandin E receptor antagonist SC-19220. This may indicate differences in signal transducing secondary messengers due to different activation states, receptor expression or ligand binding. Fluorescence due to leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) staining was determined by flow cytometry. Resident LO MO had a 15% increase in LAP fluorescence compared to CO MO. In CFA-elicited MO, the CO MO had a 43% increase in fluorescence compared to LO MO. Resident LO MO increased in LAP fluorescence by 35% to the activated state whereas resident CO MO increased in LAP fluorescence by 93%. The smaller window of activation for the LO MO may explain some of the antiinflammatory properties of dietary n-3 fatty acids. 相似文献

Cytokine production by monocytes plays a key role in atherosclerosis. In vitro, preincubation of whole blood with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha regulates interleukin (IL)-6 release from monocytes stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We investigated whether plasma levels of TNF-alpha would also relate to LPS-stimulated monocyte IL-6 production and the inhibitory effect of a glucocorticoid on this process. 224 middle-aged men were assigned to three groups according to tertiles of plasma levels of TNF-alpha. Subjects in the highest tertile (high TNF-alpha, n = 75) were compared to those in the lowest (low TNF-alpha, n = 74) and medium tertile (medium TNF-alpha, n = 75), respectively. In vitro monocyte IL-6 release following lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulation was assessed with and without coincubation with incremental doses of dexamethasone. Monocyte glucocorticoid sensitivity was defined as the dexamethasone concentration inhibiting IL-6 release by 50%. Subjects with high TNF-alpha showed more IL-6 release after LPS-stimulation than those with low TNF-alpha (p =.011). Monocyte glucocorticoid sensitivity was lower in subjects with high levels of TNF-alpha than in subjects with low (p =.014) and with medium (p =.044) levels of TNF-alpha. Results held significance when a set of classic cardiovascular risk factors was controlled for. Our findings suggest that elevated plasma levels of TNF-alpha might enhance LPS-stimulated IL-6 release from circulating monocytes. Such a mechanism might contribute to exaggerated monocyte cytokine release in vivo to any LPS-like danger signal such as related to an infection or cellular stress thereby promoting atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha exerts interleukin-6-dependent and -independent effects on cultured skeletal muscle cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

In vivo studies have shown that cancer-associated skeletal muscle wasting (cachexia) is mediated by two cytokines, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). It has been unclear from these studies whether TNF exerts direct effects on skeletal muscle and/or whether these effects are mediated via IL-6. Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that TNF induces IL-6 mRNA expression in cultured skeletal muscle cells. To further investigate the relationship between TNF and IL-6, the effects of TNF and IL-6 on protein and DNA dynamics in murine C2C12 skeletal myotube cultures were determined. At 1000 U/ml, TNF induced 30% increases in protein and DNA content. The effects of TNF on protein accumulation were inhibited by aphidicolin, an inhibitor of DNA synthesis. IL-6 mimicked the effects of TNF on C2C12 cultures, inducing a 32% increase in protein accumulation and a 71% increase in the rate of protein synthesis. IL-6 also decreased expression of mRNA for several proteolytic system components, including ubiquitin 2.4 kb (51%) and 1.2 kb (63%), cathepsin B (39%) and m-calpain (47%), indicating that IL-6 acts on both protein synthesis and degradation. Incubation of murine C2C12 myotube cultures with TNF (1000 U/ml) in the presence of a polyclonal mouse anti-IL-6 antibody resulted in an abolishment of the effects of TNF on protein synthesis, but did not inhibit TNF-induced stimulation of DNA synthesis. These findings indicate that the effects of TNF on muscle protein synthesis are mediated by IL-6, but that TNF exerts IL-6-independent effects on proliferation of murine skeletal myoblasts. 相似文献

Prolactin, an anterior pituitary hormone, has been shown to have a role in immunomodulation. Some reports have shown the importance of prolactin in activating lymphocytes and macrophages, while in hyperprolactinemia patients, prolactin was found to decrease lymphocyte activation and natural killer function. In the present work, at physiological (15ng/ml) and stress-induced levels (30ng/ml) of prolactin, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin (IL)-12 p70 levels, but not of IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), increased significantly (p<0.05-0.006) in phytohemeagglutinin (PHA)+lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated whole blood. However, no such effect was observed at high concentrations of prolactin (100-300ng/ml). In addition, 15ng/ml of prolactin reversed hydrocortisone suppressive effect on IFN-gamma, IL-12 p70, and IL-10 production in PHA+LPS-stimulated whole blood. On the other hand, in LPS-stimulated whole blood, prolactin enhanced significantly (p=0.027) the production levels of IL-10, but not of IFN-gamma, IL-12 p70, and TNF-alpha, in non-concentration-dependent manner. These results suggest that prolactin modulates cytokine response during antigenic response, and this modulation is stimulus specific. 相似文献

High circulating levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) are found in patients with hyperinsulinemia. Insulin stimulates release of IL-6 from adipocyte cultures, and it stimulates IL-6 gene expression in insulin-resistant, but not control, rat skeletal muscle. In addition, TNF-alpha may be involved in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance. Therefore, we studied the effect of insulin on IL-6 and TNF-alpha gene expression in human skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Nine healthy young volunteers participated in the study. They underwent a 6-h hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp at a fixed insulin infusion rate, with blood glucose clamped at fasting level. Blood samples drawn at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 h were analyzed for IL-6 and TNF-alpha. Muscle and fat biopsies, obtained at 0, 2, 4, and 6 h, were analyzed for IL-6 and TNF-alpha mRNA with real-time PCR. IL-6 mRNA increased 11-, 3-, and 5-fold at 2, 4, and 6 h, respectively, in adipose tissue (ANOVA P = 0.027), whereas there was no significant effect of insulin on skeletal muscles. Plasma IL-6 increased during insulin stimulation. TNF-alpha mRNA increased 2.4-, 1.4-, and 2.2-fold in adipose tissue (ANOVA P = 0.001) and decreased 0.74-, 0.64-, and 0.68-fold in muscle tissue (ANOVA P = 0.04). Plasma levels of TNF-alpha were constant. In conclusion, the finding that insulin stimulates IL-6 and TNF-alpha gene expression in adipose tissue only and inhibits the TNF-alpha production in skeletal muscles suggests a differential regulation of muscle- and adipose tissue-derived IL-6 and TNF-alpha. 相似文献

Prolactin (PRL) is a potent mitogen in cultured astrocytes. Because one of the major effects of astrocyte proliferation is the expression of inflammatory cytokines, we examined the effect of PRL-induced mitogenesis on the expression of interleukin-1 (IL-1α), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) in cultured astrocytes. Astrocytes were stimulated with PRL or growth hormone (GH), and the expression of cytokines was determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. Following incubation of astrocytes with 1 nM PRL for 6 h, strong positive staining of IL-1α and TNF-α, but not TGF-α, was found. No detectable staining for the above cytokines was found in vehicle, or GH treated astrocytes. When astrocytes were incubated in the presence of 1 nM PRL for 18 h, strong positive staining for IL-1α and TGF-α was found. Immunocytochemical analysis of the expression of TNF-α and IL-1α in PRL stimulated astrocytes suggested that the expression of IL-1α preceded the expression of TNF-α. To confirm this observation, Western blot analyses were performed on extracts from astrocytes incubated with 1 nM PRL. In unstimulated astrocytes, IL-1α levels were not detectable. In astrocytes stimulated with 1 nM PRL, expression of IL-1α was clearly detected after 1 h of incubation, and IL-1α levels continued to increase during the course of the experiment (6 h). In contrast, in astrocytes stimulated with 1 nM PRL, an increase in the expression of TNF-α was first apparent after 2 h of incubation. TNF-α levels peaked 3 to 4 h after the addition of PRL, and returned to near control levels after 6 h. Finally, injection of PRL into a wound site in female rats increased the expression of glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP), an astrocyte specific protein. These data suggest that PRL can stimulate astrogliosis at the wound site in vivo. These data clearly indicate that PRL can stimulate the expression of TNF-α and IL-1α in cultured astrocytes and suggest that PRL may play a role in the regulation of the neuroimmune response in vivo. 相似文献
