Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and lymphocyte function-asociated antigen-1 (LFA-1) are cell surface adhesion receptors that bind to one another and promote a variety of effector/target cell interactions in tissues affected by inflammatory or immune processes.
|
| 2 |
1358619
|
As determined by immunocytochemistry and immunoprecipitation using a monoclonal anti-ICAM-1 antibody, interleukin-1-alpha (IL-1a), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFa) and interferon-gamma (IFNg) strongly enhanced surface expression of ICAM-1 in both GO- and normal OF.
|

1358619
|
No effect was observed in either cell type with interleukin-2, transforming growth factor-beta, or IgGs from patients with HT, RA and normal individuals.
|

1358619
|
Using phorbol ester-activated, 51Cr-labelled peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in a cell adhesion assay, we demonstrated potent adhesive activity of ICAM-1 in GO-OF pretreated with IL-1a, TNFa, IFNg or Graves' IgGs, while all other compounds did not affect PBMC adhesion to GO-OF.

CD4/CD8 ratio and percentage CD4 were normal in peripheral blood.
|
| 6 |
1371640
|
Analysis of the pleural effusion revealed an increased CD4/CD8 ratio because of an increased percentage of CD4+CD29+ helper memory T cells, lack of expression of the resting B-cell marker CD21, immune complex deposition and complement consumption, increased relative levels of ANA, abnormally high levels of IL-6 and soluble IL-2R, and detectable levels of IL-1b, IFN-g and TNF-a.

|
In contrast to the known increase of IL-1 beta, IL-2r and TNF with cuprophane membranes, none of the modern high-flux dialyzers stimulated the production of these factors.

Cytokines assessed in this study included interleukin-1, IL-1, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha produced by macrophages, and interleukin-2, IL-2, and gamma interferon (IFN-G) secreted by T-lymphocytes.
|
| 10 |
1404261
|
Production of IL-2 was suppressed by 14.1-31.9%, and IFN-G was reduced by 8.7-57.0%.
|
| 11 |
1404261
|
Both IL-1 and TNF are endogenous pyrogens and activate polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
|
| 12 |
1404261
|
Activities of TNF and IFN-G include antiviral properties and induction of expression of class I and II major histocompatibility complex molecules, which are critical components in the recognition of antigen by T-lymphocytes.

TNF, IFNg, and GMCSF, to activate neutrophil function against C. albicans.
|
| 14 |
1414596
|
The cytokine-producing LGL differs from the spontaneous tumoricidal LGL by being DR+; otherwise other markers are identical, i.e., CD2(+)-CD16+CD4-CD8-CD15-.
|
| 15 |
1414596
|
It is of importance to note that TNF and GMCSF have also been shown to have chemotactic properties on neutrophils (27,28).
|
| 16 |
1414596
|
Since TNF is a neutrophil activating factor, this implies that neutrophils may self-regulate function in an autocrine manner or utilize released TNF to recruit neighboring PMN.

Differential sensitivity of renal cell carcinoma xenografts towards therapy with interferon-alpha, interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor and their combinations.
|
| 18 |
1906659
|
In the present study we evaluated the antiproliferative effects of human recombinant alpha-interferon (IFN), gamma-interferon and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) on eight human RCC xenografts.
|
| 19 |
1906659
|
After 6 weeks of therapy consisting of 150 or 1,500 units IFN/g given s.c. peritumorally three times a week or 30,000 units TNF/g given five times a week, alpha-IFN treatment resulted in 2%-100% growth inhibition; gamma-IFN, in 7%-80%; and TNF, in 35%-75% as compared with the untreated control.
|
| 20 |
1906659
|
Growth of five of eight tumor lines could be inhibited completely by combinations of IFN and TNF, whereby the tumor dimensions at the beginning of therapy were decisive for the results.
|
| 21 |
1906659
|
In some cases IFNs had optimal doses; however, the antitumor effects of TNF were always dose-dependent.
|

|
Human melanocyte expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) with or without stimulation by interferon gamma (IFN-G), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), or interleukin-1-alpha (IL-1 alpha), was measured utilizing direct immunofluorescence and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).
|
| 23 |
1974278
|
Melanocytes grown in vitro expressed low levels of ICAM-1, which could be increased by exposing the cells to IFN-G, TNF-alpha, or IL-1 alpha.
|
| 24 |
1974278
|
The lowest dose necessary to cause a significant increase in melanocyte ICAM-1 expression was 1 U/ml IFN-G, 0.3 ng/ml TNF-alpha, or 3 U/ml IL-1 alpha.
|
| 25 |
1974278
|
Melanocytes were most sensitive to TNF-alpha stimulation, with the greatest levels of ICAM-1 expression following 30 ng/ml or more TNF-alpha.
|
| 26 |
1974278
|
When IFN-G was added to melanocyte cultures in combination with TNF-alpha or IL-1 alpha, there was an additive increase in ICAM-1 expression but no synergy was noted with the combined cytokines.
|
| 27 |
1974278
|
To our knowledge, this is the first report of melanocyte ICAM-1 induction by TNF-alpha and IL-1 alpha and by physiologically relevant doses of IFN-G.

Developmental regulation of the cytokine repertoire in human macrophages: IL-1, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and M-CSF.
|
| 29 |
2056245
|
For each of the cytokines tested, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF), a different pattern of regulation was observed.
|
| 30 |
2056245
|
From the LPS-dependent cytokines, IL-1 beta and IL-6 were downregulated whereas TNF-alpha levels increased severalfold.
|
| 31 |
2056245
|
For the release of IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha a synergistic effect of interferon-gamma (IFN-g) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was observed.
|
| 32 |
2056245
|
Upon further cultivation of MAC up to 28 days, LPS-induced IL-1 beta levels remained very low, but IL-6 levels increased again reaching that of blood MO, and TNF-alpha continued to rise reaching levels up to 30-fold higher than in blood MO.
|
| 33 |
2056245
|
Long-term cultured MAC started to release IL-6 and TNF-alpha also in the absence of a stimulus and, furthermore, became responsive to IFN-g alone.
|
| 34 |

|
In this study, we evaluated intragraft mechanisms responsible for these effects by immunoperoxidase localization of relevant humoral mediators (IgG, IgM, C3, cross-linked fibrin), graft infiltrating cells (GIC), and associated cytokines (IL-2, IFN-g, tumor necrosis factor [TNF], or cytokine receptors (IL-2R).
|
| 35 |
2106180
|
By 18 hr, up to 20% of GIC were IFN-g+, 10% were IL-2R+, and 10% were IL-2+, consistent with labeling of 20% of cells with OX-22.
|
| 36 |
2106180
|
In addition to the reduction in neutrophils, Ig and C3, fewer IL-2R+ (6%) and OX-22+ (3%) cells, considerably less TNF and TF, and almost no IL-2+ or IFN-g+ GIC (less than 1%) were detected.
|

|
When used in combination with interferon gamma (IFNG) or chemotherapeutic drugs targeted at DNA topoisomerase II, synergistic cytotoxicity has been observed.
|
| 38 |
2113589
|
The cytotoxicity of TNF and low dose actinomycin-D (AMD) against MBT-2 in vitro was examined alone and following preincubation with IFNG.
|
| 39 |
2113589
|
The activity of TNF/AMD in vivo utilizing an intravesical implantation mode (MBT-2) was also evaluated.
|
| 40 |
2113589
|
TNF/AMD was cytotoxic for MBT-2 growth in vitro.
|
| 41 |
2113589
|
A two hour preincubation with IFNG markedly increased the cytotoxicity of TNF/AMD whereas longer incubations did not enhance cytotoxic activity.
|
| 42 |
2113589
|
This study demonstrated that TNF/AMD exhibits cytotoxicity for MBT-2 cells in vitro but is ineffective in reducing implantation of intravesical tumors in vivo.
|
| 43 |
2113589
|
The in vitro data suggest brief exposure of MBT-2 cells to IFNG augments the subsequent anti-tumor activity of TNF/AMD.
|

|
In contrast, suppression in the recipient spleens was donor-specific; both CD4 and CD8 cells prolonged test graft survival.
|
| 45 |
2219270
|
Immunohistological evaluation of renal allografts revealed that therapy with ART-18 or low-dose CsA alone failed to deplete IL-2R+ cells and prevent production of IL-2, IFN-g, and TNF.
|
| 46 |
2493179
|
Both CsA and CsG showed very similar dose-dependent inhibition of IFN-G and LT/TNF activity (IC50 CsA for IFN-G = 8.0 ng/ml, for LT/TNF = 9.5 ng/ml; IC50 CsG for IFN-G = 13.0 ng/ml, for LT/TNF = 13.0 ng/ml).

|
This study details the use of a monovalent anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody in the treatment of allograft rejection in five renal transplant recipients and documents the degree of TNF, IFN-g and IL6 release generated after antibody injection.
|
| 48 |
7584508
|
TNF, IFN-g and IL6 measurement showed that little pro-inflammatory cytokine release occurred after this drug.
|
| 49 |
7616525
|
Salivary gland extracts collected daily during engorgement were shown to inhibit normal murine macrophage elaboration of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) as well as murine T-lymphocyte production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma (IFN-G).
|
| 50 |
7683736
|
The differentiation inducing effects of interleukins (IL-1 beta, IL-3 and IL-6), colony stimulating factors (GCSF and GMCSF), TNF, LIF and IFNg, were studied either individually or in combination.
|
| 51 |
7683736
|
IL-3, IL-6, interferon gamma, GCSF and to a smaller extent IL-1 beta and GMCSF synergized the differentiation inducing activity of TNF.
|
| 52 |
8018827
|
Expression of lymphokine genes including interleukin 2 (IL-2), interleukin 3 (IL-3), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interferon gamma (IFN-g), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and lymphotoxin (LT) were sequentially monitored in peripheral blood mononuclear cells by Northern blot analysis after stimulation with phytohemagglutinin (PHA).
|
| 53 |
8018827
|
Lymphokines including IL-2, IL-3 and GM-CSF belong to type 1 and IFN-g, TNF and LT belong to type 2.

|
Tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-2, and interferon-gamma in adult varicella.
|
| 55 |
8083651
|
This study measured levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin-2 (IL-2), and interferon gamma (IFN-G) in a consecutive group of 31 adult varicella patients presenting within 24 hours of rash onset.
|
| 56 |
8083651
|
There was no correlation between TNF, IL-2, or IFN-G level and clinical severity as determined by duration and severity of cutaneous findings, duration of fever, frequency of hepatitis, or thrombocytopenia.

|
Expression of calcium-binding proteins MRP8 and MRP14 is associated with distinct monocytic differentiation pathways in HL-60 cells.
|
| 58 |
8384844
|
MRP8 and MRP14 are two calcium-binding proteins of the S-100 family which are expressed during distinct stages of monocytic maturation.
|
| 59 |
8384844
|
To further investigate their regulation the human leukemic cell line HL-60 which can be induced to differentiate to monocytes/macrophages by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), 1,25-(OH)2 Vitamin D3 (VD3), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interferon-g (IFN-g) were analyzed for expression of MRP8/MRP14.
|
| 60 |
8384844
|
Employing Northern blotting, a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunocytochemical analysis we determined MRP8/MRP14 mRNA and protein levels, which were found to be elevated after VD3 and reduced after TPA treatment.
|
| 61 |
8384844
|
TNF-alpha and IFN-g did not affect MRP8/MRP14 levels.
|
| 62 |
8384844
|
Western blot analysis revealed that formation of MRP8/MRP14 to biologically active complexes which has previously been shown to be a calcium-mediated process is not dependent on the differentiation stages of HL-60 cells.
|
| 63 |
8384844
|
Restriction of MRP8/MRP14 expression to only distinct pathways of monocytic differentiation in HL-60 cells may thus reflect different functional phenotypes of monocytes/macrophages in vivo.

|
The effects of the anti picornaviral drug WIN 54954 (5-(5-(2.6-dichloro-4-(4.5-dihydro-2-oxazolyl)phenoxy)pentyl)-3-me thyl- isoxazole) and the immune modulator LS 2616 (Quinoline-3-carboxamide) on plasma cachectin/TNFa and g-interferon (IFN-g) responses were investigated during the clinical course of a myocarditic coxsackievirus B3 (CB3) infection in the mouse.
|
| 65 |
8525128
|
Therefore, we decided to analyze interleukin IL-1b, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) and gamma interferon (IFN-g) gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 17 women with SLE and 10 normal females by a coupled reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction technique.
|
| 66 |
8525128
|
High gene expression of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-a was found in SLE patients as compared to normal subjects.
|
| 67 |
8525128
|
The expression of IL-1b, IL-2 and IFN-g genes was low or undetectable.
|
| 68 |
9116875
|
In an attempt to understand the mechanism behind these differences we examined age related differences in the phenotype profiles of MNC in parallel with the in vitro production of interleukin IL-6, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) and interferon gamma (IFNg) in neonates, children and adults.
|
| 69 |
9116875
|
In cultures without added polyclonal activators IL-6 and TNF alpha levels in children were 3-6 times higher than those of umbilical cords and adults.
|
| 70 |
9116875
|
Flow cytometry analysis of the phenotypic distribution of MNC revealed age related differences in the expression of CD3, CD4, CD8, CD14, CD19, CD45RA, CD45R0, CD2, LFA-1, ICAM-1 and LFA-3.
|
| 71 |
9116875
|
The TNF alpha levels in suboptimally stimulated cultures correlated negatively with the expression of LFA-3 and positively with CD45RA, while IFNg correlated positively with CD2, LFA-1, CD45R0 and CD8.
|
| 72 |
9116875
|
In conclusion, the study provides evidence of age related differences in the production of TNF alpha, IL-6 and IFNg among neonates, children and adults.
|
| 73 |
9823012
|
The production of IFN-g, IL-2, TNF-a (products of TH1 cells) were decreased, whereas the production of IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10 (products of TH2) were not affected during zinc deficiency.
|
| 74 |
9823012
|
We further documented that zinc deficiency decreased NK cell lytic activity and caused a decrease in the percentage of CD8+ CD73+ T cells which are known to be predominantly precursors of cytotoxic T cells.
|
| 75 |
10668244
|
The number of cardiac cells displaying intracellular amastigotes was lower in cultures supplemented with IL-1b, TNF-a and IFN-g than with other cytokine combinations and controls.

11121210
|
An equivalent therapeutic plasmid weight of 10 microgram ALP plasmid in the same 500 microliter of liposomes, correlated to around 52-60% of alkaline phosphatase-positive cells in the squamous layer of the esophagus at 24 h.
|
| 78 |
11121210
|
Mice with orthotopic thoracic tumors composed of 32D-v-abl cells that received intraesophageal SOD2-PL treatment showed transgenic mRNA in the esophagus at 24 h, but no detectable human SOD2 transgene mRNA in explanted tumors by nested RT-PCR.

In a previous study, we demonstrated a significant association between high IL-10 secretion in mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC), together with HLA mismatching for at least 4-6 antigens, with the occurrence of acute rejection following renal transplantation.
|
| 80 |
11316066
|
Cytokine protein secretion in MLC for IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 and IFN-gamma was measured by ELISA in 49 patient-donor pairs.

|
Allele frequencies of polymorphisms of TNFA, IL-6, IL-10 and IFNG in an Italian Caucasian population.
|
| 85 |
12047360
|
The polymorphisms analysed were those of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFA), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10) and interferon gamma (IFNG).
|
| 86 |
12047360
|
The frequencies of IL-6 alleles - 174C and -174G were 29.0 and 71.0%, respectively; for IFNG polymorphisms at position -874, in the population under evaluation, the alleles -874T and -874A were present in 44.7 and 55.3% of the subjects, respectively.

Oral terbutaline differentially affects cytokine (IL-10, IL-12, TNF, IFNg) release in multiple sclerosis patients and controls.
|
| 88 |
12417450
|
In this study, we investigated the effects of terbutaline (5 mg) on IL-10, IL-12, IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production in whole blood stimulation cultures.
|
| 89 |
12417450
|
IL-10 and IL-12 production were significantly enhanced in controls but not in MS patients (p=0.03 and p=0.001).
|
| 90 |
12417450
|
We conclude that administration of terbutaline induces anti-inflammatory (IL-10) as well as IL-12 protein production in healthy controls but not in MS patients.
|
| 91 |
12548511
|
In this article, we analyze the relationship between cytokine gene polymorphisms and in vitro tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), interferon gamma (IFNgamma), and interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-13 production, both in liver transplant recipients and in healthy volunteers.
|
| 92 |
12548511
|
The evaluated cytokine gene polymorphisms involved TNF-A-308; TNF-d3; IFN-G+874; IL-10-1082, -819, and -592; and IL-13+2043, and -1055.
|
| 93 |
12548511
|
For healthy volunteers, we observed a relationship between polymorphisms of TNF-d3 and IL-10-1082 with in vitro production of TNFalpha and IL-10, respectively, whereas no significant associations were found for the other tested cytokine gene polymorphisms.

| 96 |
12854077
|
A polymorphism, -179G/T, in the promoter of the interferon (IFN)-gamma gene (IFNG) confers differential tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) inducibility to the IFNG promoter.
|
| 97 |
12854077
|
In 298 African American human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 seroconverters, the IFNG -179G/T genotype was associated with accelerated progression to CD4 <200 and AIDS-1993, a finding suggesting that IFNG -179T is a risk factor for AIDS progression, as measured by CD4 cell count.
|
| 98 |
12854077
|
It is possible that increased IFN-gamma production induced by TNF-alpha when -179T is present causes CD4 cell depletion by apoptosis.
|
| 99 |

IGFs, basic FGF, and glucose modulate proliferation and apoptosis induced by IFNgamma but not by IL-1beta in rat INS-1E beta-cells.
|
| 100 |
12931271
|
We investigated the effects of glucose and beta-cell growth factors (IGF-I, IGF-II, bFGF) on growth and apoptosis in the presence and absence of apoptosis inducing cytokines (IFNgamma, Il-1beta, TNFalpha).
|
| 101 |
12931271
|
The cytokines IFNg and IL-1beta, but not TNFalpha strongly induced INS-1E beta-cell apoptosis.
|
| 102 |
12931271
|
Most importantly, IGF-II and bFGF inhibited apoptosis induced by IFNg, but not by IL-1beta.
|
| 103 |
12931271
|
Cytokines IFNg and IL-1beta differentially interfere with intracellular signaling cascades stimulated by IGFs and bFGF or glucose, respectively.

Among the 3 major ethnic (African-American, Hispanic/Latino, and other) groups involved, HIV-1-seropositive individuals differed significantly from ethnically matched HIV-1-seronegative individuals (odds ratios = 2.13-4.82; P = 0.003-0.05) for several SNPs and haplotypes defined at the IL4, IL4R, IL6, IL10, CCL5 (RANTES), and CXCL12 (SDF1) loci.
|
| 106 |
15021309
|
No SNPs at IFNG, IL2, IL12B, TNF, or CCL2 (MCP1) showed any association with HIV-related outcomes.
|
| 107 |
15021309
|
Additional typing for IL1A, IL1B, IL1R1, IL1RN, and TGFB1 SNPs also failed to demonstrate any influence on HIV-1 infection or virologic/immunologic control in more selected patient groups.
|
| 108 |
15021309
|
Coupled with previous findings, our data suggest that heritable IL4 and IL10 variations may contribute to the acquisition or progression of HIV infection and that the effects of other targeted loci in the cytokine and chemokine system cannot be established unequivocally in the study populations.

|
Both corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) and serotonin (5-HT) participate in the stress response and are known to modulate cytokine release by human immune cells.
|
| 110 |
15073568
|
Extracellular 5-HT concentrations at or above the serum values have negative immunoregulatory effects by inhibiting the production of interferon-gamma (IFNgamma), a pro-inflammatory cytokine produced by Th-1-like lymphocytes, whereas 5-HT has no significant effects on the production of interleukin-10 (IL-10), an anti-inflammatory cytokine.
|
| 111 |
15073568
|
In one study, CRH significantly decreases IFNgamma production by cultured human peripheral blood immunocytes, whereas in other studies CRH increases the production of cytokines, such as IL-1, IL-2 and IL-6.
|
| 112 |
15073568
|
The aims of the present study were to examine i) the effects of CRH, 10-9 M, 10(-8) M and 10(-7) M, on the stimulated production of IFNgamma, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) by human whole blood; and ii) whether CRH, 10(-9) M, 10(-8) M and 10(-7) M, may antagonize some of the negative immunoregulatory effects of 5-HT, 1.5 microg/mL or 15 microg/mL.

We found that CRH, 10(-9) M, 10(-8) M and 10(-7) M, had no significant effects either on the stimulated production of IFNgamma, IL-10 or TNFalpha or on the IFNg/IL-10 production ratio, which reflects the pro-inflammatory capacity of the culture. 5-HT, 1,5 microg/dL and 15 microg/dL, significantly suppressed the production of IFNgamma and TNFalpha and the IFNg/IL-10 production ratio.
|
| 114 |
15073568
|
CRH, 10(-7) M, significantly reversed the 5-HT (1.5 microg/mL and 15 microg/mL)-induced suppression of IFNg production.
|
| 115 |
15073568
|
CRH at all concentrations significantly blocked the 5-HT (1.5 microg/mL and 15 microg/mL)-induced suppression of TNFalpha production.
|
| 116 |
15073568
|
The results suggest that CRH has no significant direct effects on the production of IFNgamma, IL-10 and TNFalpha, but antagonizes the negative immunoregulatory effects of 5-HT on the production of IFNgamma and TNFalpha and on the IFNgamma/IL-10 production ratio.

Treatment with interferon-gamma (IFN-g) induced SOCS-1 and enhanced SOCS-3 expression, and was associated with decreased tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and increased leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in culture supernatants.
|
| 118 |
15145618
|
Treatment with conditioned medium from myelin basic protein-stimulated encephalitogenic lymphoid cells (MBP-CM) increased SOCS-3 and induced SOCS-1 expression.
|

|
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from these pigs responded to PRRSV exposure with a limited increase in their expression of the Th1 immune markers, IFNG, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-15 (IL15), and a reduction in the quantity of mRNAs encoding the innate and inflammatory proteins, IL1B, IL8 and IFNA.
|
| 120 |
15507306
|
Efforts to enhance Th1 immunity, by utilizing an expression plasmid encoding porcine IFNA (pINA) as an adjuvant, resulted in a temporary increase in the frequency of PRRSV-specific IFNG SC but only minor changes overall in the expression of Th1 associated cytokine or innate immune marker mRNA by virus-stimulated PBMC.
|
| 121 |
15507306
|
Administration of pINA, however, did correlate with decreased IL1B secretion by cultured, unstimulated PBMC but had no effect on their ability to release IFNG.

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether there was any correlation between Helicobacter pylori-associated diseases and (1) H. pylori virulence genes or (2) IL-1B, IL-1RN, IFN-G, TNF-A, IL-10 genetic polymorphisms.
|
| 124 |
15652446
|
IL-1RN intron 2 VNTR polymorphism (PCR), IL-1B -31 C/T (RFLP), the SNPs of IFN-G (+874 A/T), TNF-A (-1031 C/T, -857 C/T, -376 A/G, -308 A/G, -238 A/G), IL-10 (-1082 A/G, -819 C/T, -592 A/C) (Taqman chemistry) were studied. cagA, s1 and m1 vacA, were PCR amplified.
|
| 125 |
15652446
|
Antral inflammation was associated with TNF-A -1031 TT, while corpus activity with IL-10 -819 CC.
|
| 126 |
15652446
|
H. pylori infection was associated with TNF-A -308 AG genotype, while IFN-G +874 AA genotype was associated with cagA.
|
| 127 |
15652446
|
In conclusion, among host genetic factors contributing to H. pylori disease outcome, IFN-G +874 AA genotype favors cagA positive infections, TNF-A -857 TT duodenal ulcer while IL-10 -819 TT intestinal metaplasia and NCGC.
|

15661146
|
The most noteworthy changes in gene expression mainly affected the transcriptional network regulated by interferons (IFNs), including both IFN-alpha/beta-inducible genes (STAT1, STAT2, ISGF3G/IRF9, IFI27, G1P3, G1P2, OAS2, MX1) and IFN-gamma-inducible genes (CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11).
|
| 129 |
15661146
|
Interesting, upregulation of IFN-alpha/beta-inducible genes (but not IFN-gamma-inducible genes) was independent of histological scores (grade and stage of fibrosis) and HCV characteristics (hepatic HCV mRNA levels and the HCV genotype), and was specific to HCV (as compared to hepatitis B virus (HBV)).
|
| 130 |
15661146
|
Other genes dysregulated in F1-CH-C, albeit less markedly than IFN-alpha/beta- and IFN-gamma-inducible genes, were mainly involved in the activation of lymphocytes infiltrating the liver (IFNG, TNF, CXCL6, IL6, CCL8, CXCR3, CXCR4, CCR2), cell proliferation (p16/CDKN2A, MKI67, p14/ARF), extracellular matrix remodeling (MMP9, ITGA2), lymphangiogenesis (XLKD1/LYVE), oxidative stress (CYP2E1), and cytoskeleton microtubule organization (STMN2/SCG10).
|
| 131 |
15733644
|
Forty-eight patients were analyzed for mutations in the IL1A, IL1B, IL6 and TNFA genes, and 16 polymorphisms in 10 candidate cytokine genes (IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, TNFA, IL2, IL4, IL4R, IL6, IL10, IFNG) were genotyped from all subjects.
|
| 132 |
15733644
|
No disease-causing mutations were identified in IL1A, IL1B, IL6 or TNFA.
|
| 133 |
15799696
|
The changes in mRNA expression level of interleukin 2 (Il2), Il4, tumor necrosis factor alpha (Tnf), interferon gamma (Ifng), and transforming growth factor beta (Tgfb) were examined.
|
| 134 |
15799696
|
The mRNA expression of Il2 and Il4 decreased from day 5 to day 14 after irradiation.
|
| 135 |
15799696
|
Thereafter, the expression level of Il2 mRNA recovered to normal control levels; however, the expression of Il4 mRNA tended toward significantly low levels.
|
| 136 |

Previous studies identified mucosa-specific CD2 cis-elements within the -204 to -108 bp IFNG promoter.
|
| 137 |

16835788
|
The polymorphic positions studied were: TNFA -1031, -863, -857, -851, -574, -376, -308, -238, +488; TGFB1 -988, -800, -509, +869, +915, +652, +673, +713, +788; IL10 -1082, -819, -592; IL6 -174; IFNG -333, +874.
|
| 140 |
16835788
|
It was found that TNFA -238 GA, TGFB1 -509 CT, -800 GG, IFNG +874 AT, IL6 -174 GG, IL10 -1082 GA genotypes were significantly decreased, while TNFA -238 AA, -857 CC, TGFB1 -509 TT, IFNG +874 AA, IL6 -174 CC, IL10 -1082 AA, -819 TT, -592 AA genotypes were significantly increased, in MM.
|
| 141 |
16835788
|
This suggests that genotypes provisionally associated with low expression of pro-inflammatory and immunomodulatory TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma and IL-6 and anti-inflammatory IL-10 and TGF-beta1 could be involved in the mechanisms of cancer progression and escape from immunosurveillance.
|
| 142 |
16930709
|
Network analysis indicates that TNF and NFKB1 are key regulators of gene expression at this early time point.
|
| 143 |
16930709
|
At 4h, IL1B in addition to TNF and NFKB1 play dominant roles in the up-regulation of immune gene expression, whereas by 8h this function is mediated by TNF, IFNG, and MYC.
|
| 144 |
16985010
|
Messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript levels for the IL2, IL8, and IL1RN genes were significantly downregulated across the time course of infection in both breeds.
|
| 145 |
16985010
|
There was an early increase in transcripts for genes encoding proinflammatory mediators (IFNG, IL1A, TNF, and IL12) in N'Dama by 14 days postinfection (dpi) compared with preinfection levels that was not detected in the susceptible Boran breed.
|
| 146 |
17334537
|
Bosentan failed to affect the infection-associated increase in the cardiac levels of the cytokines IFN-g and TNF-a and the chemokines CCL2/MCP-1, CCL3/MIP-1a and CCL5/RANTES.

The IL-4/IL-13/Stat6 signalling pathway promotes luminal mammary epithelial cell development.
|
| 148 |
17611223
|
The Th1/Th2 cytokine milieu is a key paradigm in lineage commitment, and IL-4 (Il4), IL-13 (Il13) and Stat6 are important mediators of Th2 development.
|
| 149 |
17611223
|
Thus, the Th1 cytokines IL-12 (Il12), interferon gamma (INFgamma; also known as Ifng) and Tnfalpha are downregulated concomitantly with the upregulation of the Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-13 and IL-5 (Il5) as epithelial cells commit to the luminal lineage.
|
| 150 |
17611223
|
Moreover, we show that Th2 cytokines play a crucial role in mammary gland development in vivo, because differentiation and alveolar morphogenesis are reduced in both Stat6 and IL-4/IL-13 doubly deficient mice during pregnancy.
|
| 151 |
18026101
|
The LPS hypersensitivity phenotype is not suppressed by mutations in Myd88, Trif, Tnf, Tnfrsf1a, Ifnb, Ifng or Stat1, genes contributing to LPS responses, and results from an abnormality extrinsic to hematopoietic cells.
|
| 152 |
18216180
|
In this study, we compare the intensity of lipid peroxidation (estimated as malondialdehyde (MDA) serum levels), the antioxidant status, (measured as glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in red blood cells), and levels of cytokines derived from Th1 cells (such as interferon gamma (IFNG)), Th2 cells (such as interleukin (IL)-4), Th3 cells (such as transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)), and IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha in patients affected by chronic hepatitis C virus infection, 26 drinkers of alcohol and 40 nondrinkers of alcohol.
|
| 153 |
18216180
|
Patients showed significantly higher TNF-alpha (Z = 4.92, P < 0.001), IL-8 (Z = 4.95, P < 0.001), IFNG (Z = 2.81, P = 0.005), TGF-beta (t = 2.12, P = 0.037), MDA (Z = 5, P < 0.001), but lower IL-6 (Z = 3.61, P < 0.001) and GPX (F = 4.30, P < 0.05) than controls, whereas no differences were observed regarding IL-4 (Z = 0.35, P = 0.72), GPX and SOD activities.
|
| 154 |
18216180
|
Alcoholics showed significantly higher TNF-alpha, but lower IL-4, MDA, and GPX, than nonalcoholics.
|
| 155 |
18216180
|
TNF-alpha was significantly related to albumin and prothrombin activity, whereas TGF-beta was significantly related to MDA levels.
|

Cortisol (an active GC) reduced the mRNA expression of caspase 8 (CASP8) and caspase 3 (CASP3) and reduced the enzymatic activity of CASP3 and cell death induced by tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interferon gamma (IFNG) in cultured bovine luteal cells. mRNAs and proteins of GC receptor (NR3C1), 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (HSD11B1), and HSD11B2 were expressed in CL throughout the estrous cycle.
|
| 157 |
18218610
|
These results suggest that cortisol suppresses TNF-IFNG-induced apoptosis in vitro by reducing apoptosis signals via CASP8 and CASP3 in bovine CL and that the local increase in cortisol production resulting from increased HSD11B1 at the early and midluteal stages helps to maintain CL function by suppressing apoptosis of luteal cells.
|
| 158 |
18296866
|
The CLENDOs were also exposed to cytokines to assess differences in activation of nuclear factor kappa B signaling (NF-kappaB), induction of the transcription factor interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), cytokine production, and cytokine-induced cell death.
|
| 159 |
18296866
|
In response to TNF, for instance, both types of CLENDOs exhibited a rapid, 5-fold decrease in NF-kappaB inhibitor alpha (NFKBIA) protein expression (P<0.05), and a 4-fold increase in IRF1 expression (P<0.05), that did not differ with phenotype (P>0.05).
|
| 160 |
18296866
|
Similarly, both types of CLENDOs produced tumor necrosis factor alpha and chemokine ligand 2 in response to IFNG stimulation (P<0.05) that did not differ with phenotype (P>0.05).

New approach reveals CD28 and IFNG gene interaction in the susceptibility to cervical cancer.
|
| 162 |
18337305
|
A total of 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) distributed in CD28, CTLA4, ICOS, PDCD1, FAS, TNFA, IL6, IFNG, TGFB1 and IL10 genes were determined in patients and healthy individuals from three independent case/control sets.
|
| 163 |
18337305
|
The multi-locus analysis revealed higher frequencies in cancer patients of three three-genotype combinations [CD28+17(TT)/IFNG+874(AA)/TNFA-308(GG), CD28+17(TT)/IFN+847(AA)/PDCD1+7785(CT), and CD28 +17(TT)/IFNG+874(AA)/ICOS+1564(TT)] (P < 0.01, Monte Carlo simulation).
|
| 164 |
18337305
|
We hypothesized that this two-genotype [CD28(TT) and IFNG(AA)] combination could have a major contribution to the observed association.
|
| 165 |
18337305
|
To address this question, we analyzed the frequency of the CD28(TT), IFNG(AA) genotype combination in the three groups combined, and observed its increase in patients (P = 0.0011 by Fisher's exact test).
|
| 166 |
18337305
|
Further analysis suggested that gene-gene interaction between CD28 and IFNG might contribute to susceptibility to cervical cancer.
|
| 167 |
18337305
|
Our results showed an epistatic effect between CD28 and IFNG genes in susceptibility to cervical cancer, a finding that might be relevant for a better understanding of the disease pathogenesis.

IFNG +874T/A, IL10 -1082G/A and TNF -308G/A polymorphisms in association with tuberculosis susceptibility: a meta-analysis study.
|
| 169 |
18414898
|
In tuberculosis (TB), interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) is crucial to control intracellular growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis while interleukin-10 (IL-10) has an antagonistic role.
|
| 170 |
18414898
|
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a central mediator of granuloma formation and control of bacilli spread synergizing with IFNgamma to hamper M. tuberculosis infection.
|
| 171 |
18414898
|
The aim of this study was to determine the association of the interferon-gamma gene (IFNG) +874T/A, interleukin-10 gene (IL10) -1082G/A and tumor necrosis factor gene (TNF) -308G/A SNPs with TB in several populations using meta-analysis.
|
| 172 |
18414898
|
Eleven studies were included in the IFNG +874T/A meta-analysis, while eight were used for the IL10 -1082G/A, and 10 were employed for TNF -308G/A.
|

18463360
|
Prostaglandin E2 (1 microM) and PGF2alpha (1 microM) significantly stimulated progesterone (P4) production and reduced the levels of cell death in the cells cultured with or without tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF)/interferon gamma (IFNG), in the presence and absence of FAS ligand (P < 0.05).
|
| 174 |
18463360
|
Furthermore, DNA fragmentation induced by TNF/IFNG was observed to be suppressed by PGE2 and PGF2alpha.
|
| 175 |
18463360
|
Prostaglandin E2 and PGF2alpha also attenuated mRNA expression of caspase 3 and caspase 8, as well as caspase 3 activity (P < 0.05) in TNF/IFNG-treated cells.
|
| 176 |
18463360
|
A specific P4 receptor antagonist (onapristone) attenuated the apoptosis-inhibitory effects of PGE2 and PGF2alpha in the absence of TNF/IFNG (P < 0.05).
|
| 177 |
18632870
|
Interestingly, in SARS-CoV-infected aged mice, a subset of genes, including Tnfa, Il6, Ccl2, Ccl3, Cxcl10, and Ifng, was induced in a biphasic pattern that correlated with peak viral replication and a subsequent influx of lymphocytes and severe histopathologic changes in the lungs.

Self-antigen prevents CD8 T cell effector differentiation by CD134 and CD137 dual costimulation.
|
| 179 |
19017962
|
Enforced dual costimulation through OX40 and 4-1BB redirected CD8 cells encountering soluble exogenous peptide to expand and differentiate into IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha double-producing effectors rather than becoming tolerant.
|
| 180 |
19017962
|
Thus, the ability of enforced OX40 plus 4-1BB dual costimulation to redirect CD8 cells to undergo effector differentiation was unexpectedly influenced by the source of tolerizing Ag and help was selectively required to facilitate CD8 cell effector differentiation when the tolerizing Ag derived from self.

|
Three major cytokines, namely, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), interleukin (IL)-1, and IL-6 are produced by cultured brain cells after various stimuli such as ischemia.
|
| 182 |
19075734
|
TNF-alpha expression after stroke stimulates expression of tissue factor and adhesion molecules for leukocytes, release of interleukin-1 (IL-1), nitric oxide, factor VIII/von Willebrand factor, platelet-activating factor and endothelin, suppression of the thrombomodulin-protein C-protein S system, reduction of tissue-plasminogen activator and release of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
|
| 183 |
19075734
|
IL-6 can be induced by a variety of molecules including IL-1, TNF-alpha, transforming growth factor-beta and prostaglandins (PGs), and many other mediators such as b-amyloid, interferon-g (IFNg) and IL-4 can potentiate these primary inducers, highlighting the complex nature of IL-6 modulation.
|
| 184 |
19075734
|
Several studies reported that plasma levels of TNF-alpha and IL-6 are associated with prognosis after ischemic stroke and our group showed that plasma levels of cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL-1beta are different in every diagnostic subtype of ischemic stroke, and how plasma levels of some immunoinflammatory markers and thrombotic-phybrinolitic markers are predictive of acute ischemic stroke diagnosis in the acute setting.

|
The present study was conducted to explore the source of acetylcholine (ACH) in the corpus luteum (CL) and to test our hypothesis of an antiapoptotic role of ACH in the bovine CL and, further, to investigate whether nerve growth factor (NGF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFB1) influence the expression of choline acetyltransferase (CHAT), the biosynthetic enzyme of ACH, in cultured bovine luteal cells.
|
| 186 |
19129516
|
Cell viability and TUNEL assays were performed on cultured midluteal cells treated with or without tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF)/interferon gamma (IFNG) in the presence of ACH and its muscarinic (atropine) and nicotinic (mecamylamine) receptor antagonists.
|
| 187 |
19129516
|
ACH increased cell viability and prevented cell death induced by TNF/IFNG.
|
| 188 |
19129516
|
TNF/IFNG treatment downregulated CHAT expression, whereas NGF, IGF1, and TGFB1 upregulated CHAT expression, in cultured luteal cells.
|
| 189 |
19129516
|
Locally produced ACH appears to be regulated by NGF, IGF1, and TGFB1.
|

19375805
|
The objective was to search for an association between spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) and single and/or combined polymorphisms in genes TNFA -308 G>A, IL10 -1082 G>A, IL10 -819 C>T, IL10 -592 C>A, IL6 -174 G>C, and IFNG +874 A>T.
|
| 191 |
19375805
|
The multi-locus analysis revealed a significant association between sPTB and the TNFA(GG)/IL6(GG)/IFNG(AA) genotype combination (p=0.002), confirmed by logistic regression.
|
| 192 |
19375805
|
Our data suggest that the combination of TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, and IL-6 maternal gene polymorphisms might contribute to susceptibility to sPTB.
|
| 193 |
19541593
|
We found decreasing IL-2 expression, increasing IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production and stable IL-4, Ki67 and TGFb levels with advancing age.
|
| 194 |
19541593
|
Apart from age, there was a differential expression in boys and girls: boys (< 6 years) produce significantly more IL-2 (p < 0,04), while girls > 12 years produce more IFNg than boys of the same age (p < 0.05).
|

|
TNFalpha and TGF-beta1 influence IL-18-induced IFNgamma production through regulation of IL-18 receptor and T-bet expression.
|
| 196 |
19879772
|
IL-18 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that drives dendritic cell maturation and mediates IFNgamma production.
|
| 197 |
19879772
|
In this study, we demonstrate that in the dendritic precursor-like cell line KG-1, IFNgamma production induced by IL-18 is potentiated (>5-fold) by TNFalpha and completely suppressed by TGF-beta1.
|
| 198 |
19879772
|
IL-18 stimulation rapidly activates different MAPK signalling pathways but only blocking of p38 activation alleviates IFNgamma production.
|
| 199 |
19879772
|
The mechanism through which TNFalpha enhances IL-18 induced IFNgamma production is by promoting IL-18 receptor alpha-chain expression which results in higher levels of p38 activation and induces expression of T-bet, a transcriptional regulator of the IFNG gene.
|
| 200 |
19879772
|
In contrast, TGF-beta1 rapidly suppresses IFNgamma production by limiting IL-18 receptor numbers at the cell surface and preventing induction of T-bet expression.
|
| 201 |
19879772
|
TGF-beta1 experience by cells leads to sustained long-term inactivation of TNFalpha/IL-18-mediated cell activation but not IL-18 induced p38 activation suggesting transcriptional silencing of the T-BET and/or IFNG promoter independent of MAPK signalling.
|
| 202 |
19904525
|
Also, immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to probe dectin-1 as well as anti-mouse Ccl3, Il1-alpha, and TNF-alpha expression to evaluate dose and time-course (4 and 12 h) postexposure (PE) response patterns in the lungs of intratracheally instilled mice exposed to a single 50 mul dose of curdlan at 10(-7), 10(-8), 10(-9), and 10(-10) M/animal (=4 mug to 4 ng curdlan/kg lung wt).
|
| 203 |
19904525
|
Nine gene mRNA transcripts (Ccl3, Ccl11, Ccl17, Ifng, Il1alpha, Il-20, TNF-alpha, Tnfrsf1b, and CD40lg) were significantly expressed at all doses suggesting they may have a central role in immunomodulating curdlan exposures.
|
| 204 |
19904525
|
IHC revealed Ccl3, Il1-alpha, and TNF-alpha expression in bronchiolar epithelium, AMs and ATIIs illustrate the important immunomodulatory role that these cells have in the recognition of, and response to glucan.

|
However, cultured mid luteal cells had a higher percentage of cFLIP-positive cells and a lower percentage of TUNEL-positive cells than luteal cells treated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF)/interferon gamma (IFNG; P<0.01).
|
| 206 |
20097948
|
Of the cytokine gene polymorphisms that determine the level of gene expression, TNF-a -08G/A, IFN-g +874T/A and microsatellite (CA)n, TGF-b1 +869T/C and +915G/C, IL-6 -174G/C, and IL-10 -592C/A, -819C/T, and -1082G/A seem to have the strongest impact on graft survival.
|
| 207 |
20097948
|
Increased risk of acute rejection (AR) was demonstrated for high-producing genotypes of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-a and IFN-g, while the association with polymorphisms of TGF-b1 and IL-10 remains unclear.
|
| 208 |
20097948
|
The risk of graft loss was greater among high TNF-a and low TGF-b1 or IL-6 producers.
|
| 209 |
20097948
|
Low donor transcriptional TGF-b1 gene activity predisposed the recipient to AR episodes and high IFN-g expression to IF/TA development.

APO-E and ACE gene polymorphisms were carried out in the patient's group only to evaluate a possible association with known genetic risk factors for AD.
|
| 213 |
20213229
|
A highly significant presence of some alleles belonging to anti-inflammatory cytokine genes was found; particularly the C allele for the -590 promoter and T allele for the -1098 promoter of IL-4 appeared in a significantly higher percentage as compared with controls (P < 0.0006 and P < 0.0005, respectively), while a lesser significance was observed for the allele C of the -819 promoter of IL-10 (P < 0.03).
|
| 214 |
20213229
|
Finally, in the group of demented patients for the APO-E gene we found a statistically significant presence of the E4 allele, whereas no difference was found for the polymorphisms of the ACE gene.

Cell death of LSCs and LECs is essential for structural luteolysis.
|
| 217 |
20562522
|
We previously reported that a treatment combining tumor necrosis factor α (TNF) and interferon γ (IFNG) induced cell death in LSCs and that LECs express TNF receptor type I (TNFRI).
|
| 218 |
20562522
|
To induce cell death in LECs, LECs were treated with TNF or IFNG (0, 0.05, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 nM) and a combination of TNF (0.5 nM) and IFNG (0.5 nM) for 24 h.
|
| 219 |
20562522
|
The viability of LECs was reduced by a single treatment with TNF or IFNG dose-dependently (P<0.05).
|
| 220 |
20562522
|
Cell viability was further decreased by treatment with a combination of TNF and IFNG (P<0.05).
|
| 221 |
20562522
|
Cells with DNA fragmentation (TUNEL-positive cells) were observed after the treatment with TNF and IFNG.
|
| 222 |
20562522
|
Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that treatment with IFNG alone or in combination with TNF increased the expression of TNFRI mRNA compared with the control (P<0.05).
|
| 223 |
20562522
|
In summary, TNF and IFNG increased cell death in cultured bovine LECs.
|
| 224 |
20562522
|
The upregulation of TNFRI mRNA expression by IFNG suggests that TNF and IFNG synergistically affect the death of LECs resulting in acute luteolysis.

Is FAS/Fas ligand system involved in equine corpus luteum functional regression?
|
| 226 |
20720169
|
Proapoptotic factor Fas ligand (FASL) and its cell surface receptor FAS are tumor necrosis factor superfamily members that trigger apoptosis in different cell types.
|
| 227 |
20720169
|
The aim of the present work was to determine (i) the presence of the cytokine FASL and its receptor FAS in the mare's corpus luteum (CL) throughout the luteal phase, as well as (ii) the influence of FASL alone, or together with the cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) and interferon gamma (IFNG), on equine luteal cell production of luteotrophic and luteolytic factors, cell viability, and apoptosis.
|
| 228 |
20720169
|
FASL and FAS protein expression and mRNA transcription were evaluated in different luteal stages of the equine CL by Western blotting and real-time PCR assays, respectively.
|
| 229 |
20720169
|
Also, FAS and FASL proteins were present in large steroidogenic and endothelial CL cells throughout the luteal phase, as demonstrated by immunohistochemistry.
|
| 230 |
20720169
|
Equine luteal cells isolated from midluteal phase CL were stimulated without (control) or with exogenous cytokines: FASL (10 ng/ml); TNF+IFNG (10 ng/ml each; positive control) or FASL+TNF+IFNG (10 ng/ml each).
|
| 231 |
20720169
|
Furthermore, FASL effect on equine luteal cell viability depended on the presence of cytokines TNF and IFNG.
|
| 232 |
20720169
|
In conclusion, this study shows the presence of FASL and FAS in the equine CL and suggests their importance in functional luteolysis.

Cystic fibrosis conductance regulator, tumor necrosis factor, interferon alpha-10, interferon alpha-17, and interferon gamma genotyping as potential risk markers in pulmonary sarcoidosis pathogenesis in Greek patients.
|
| 234 |
20722470
|
We have screened for mutations in the cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and genotyped single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interferon alpha-10 (IFNA10), IFNA17, and interferon gamma (IFNG) genes in 89 Greek patients with sarcoidosis and 212 control subjects to detect possible association between them and the risk for developing sarcoidosis.
|
| 235 |
20722470
|
Our study did not reproduce the associations previously noted with the TNF, IFNA10, IFNA17, and IFNG genes, which highlights the genetic complexity of the disorder and is in agreement with previous studies showing that CFTR might be an important factor in the clinical course of the disease.

[Analysis of linkage and association of alleles of proinflammatory cytokines genes IL-6, IFNg and TNF with multiple sclerosis using transmission disequilibrium test (TDT)].
|
| 240 |
21090238
|
Proinflammatory cytokines Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interferon-gamma (IFNg) and Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) are known as participants of inflammation and play an important role in pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS).
|
| 241 |
21090238
|
Based on literature data about influence of SNPs G(-308)A of TNF gene, A(+874)T of IFNG gene and G(-174)C of IL-6 gene on production of these cytokines, we investigated association of these polymorphic sites with MS.
|
| 242 |
21090238
|
Linkage/association of IFNG and IL-6 alleles with MS was not revealed.

Chlamydia trachomatis-induced fallopian tube damage leading to tubal factor infertility (TFI) is linked with TNF, IL-10, and probably IFNG gene polymorphisms.
|
| 244 |
21215285
|
Cytokine polymorphisms (IL-10 -1082A/G, -819T/C, and -592A/C, IFNG +874T/A, and TNF -308G/A) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction in 139 women.
|
| 245 |
21215285
|
IL-10 -1082/-819/-592 and IFNG +874 SNPs were associated with the intensity of LP responses to C trachomatis antigens.
|
| 246 |
21215285
|
These cytokines also interact with each other and a cumulative effect of IL-10 -1082 and IFNG +874 genotypes was seen in LP responses to C trachomatis antigens.
|
| 247 |

|
Protection against diabetes was accompanied by histone hyperacetylation in pancreas and spleen, enhanced frequency of CD4(+) CD62L(+) cells in the spleen, reduction in cellular infiltration of islets, restoration of normoglycemia and glucose-induced insulin release by beta cells.
|
| 248 |
21321581
|
Activation of splenic T lymphocytes derived from protected mice in vitro with pharmacological agents that bypass the antigen receptor or immobilized anti-CD3 antibody resulted in enhanced expression of Ifng mRNA and protein without altering the expression of Il4, Il17, Il18, Inos and Tnfa genes nor the secretion of IL-2, IL-4, IL-17 and TNF-α proteins.
|
| 249 |
21321581
|
Consistently, expression of the transcription factor involved in Ifng transcription, Tbet/Tbx21 but not Gata3 and Rorgt, respectively, required for the transcription of Il4 and Il17, was upregulated in activated splenocytes of protected mice.
|
| 250 |
21393251
|
Expression of proinflammatory cytokines, including Tnfa, Il17a, and Ifng, was up-regulated, whereas expression of antimicrobial peptides was down-regulated in the colon of Traf2(-/-) mice.
|
| 251 |
21393251
|
Moreover, a number of IL-17-producing helper T cells were increased in the colonic lamina propria of Traf2(-/-) mice.
|
| 252 |
21393251
|
Finally, deletion of Tnfr1, but not Il17a, dramatically ameliorated colitis in Traf2(-/-) mice by preventing apoptosis of colonic epithelial cells, down-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines, and restoration of wild-type commensal bacteria.
|
| 253 |
21463712
|
In the current study we investigated genotype variants pertaining to five cytokine genes namely IFNG, TNFA, IL4, IL10 and IL12 in the north Indian population with active pulmonary tuberculosis (APTB) and correlated the serum cytokine levels with the corresponding genotypes.
|
| 254 |
21463712
|
Compared to HC mean serum IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-4, and IL-10 levels were higher in APTB (p = 0.3661, p = 0.0186, p = 0.003, p = 0.7, respectively).
|
| 255 |
21463712
|
In contrast the genotypes of the selected rsIDs in the TNFA, IL12 and IL10 genes showed significant association with the varying serum levels of corresponding cytokines.
|
| 256 |
21463712
|
The variant of the TNFA gene at rs3093662, the IL12 gene at rs3213094 and rs3212220 and the IL10 gene at rs3024498 did show a strong indication to be of relevance to the immunity to tuberculosis.
|
| 257 |
21585261
|
During the early events of host-pathogen interaction identified genes are involved in pattern recognition receptors, and mycobacterial uptake (TLRs, NOD2 and MRC1), which modulate autophagy.
|
| 258 |
21585261
|
Together, the activation of these pathways regulates cellular metabolism upon infection, activating cytokine production through NF-κB and vitamin D-vitamin D receptor pathways, while PARK2 and LRRK2 participate in the regulation of host-cell apoptosis.
|
| 259 |
21585261
|
Concomitantly, genes triggered to form and maintain granulomas (TNF, LTA and IFNG) and genes involved in activating and differentiating T-helper cells (HLA, IL10, as well as the TNF/LTA axis and the IFNG/IL12 axis) bridge immunological regulation towards adaptive immunity.
|
| 260 |
21685942
|
Comparative analysis of inflammation-related genes showed that Ifng, Il1b and Nos2 had expression concordant with methylation induction whereas Il2, Il6, Il10, Tnf did not.

Assessment of the levels of nitric oxide (NO) and cytokines (IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, TNF, IFN-gamma) in giardiosis.
|
| 262 |
21744329
|
The serum concentrations of IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, TNF, IFN-g were assayed using a set of Quantikine human.
|
| 263 |
21744329
|
Patients infected with G. intestinalis showed a statistically significant increase in the levels of NO, IFN-g and IL-13.
|
| 264 |
21876173
|
The experiments show that, although the majority of naive CD8(+) T-cell precursors are preprogrammed to produce TNF-α soon after stimulation and a proportion make both TNF-α and IL-2, the progressive acquisition of IFN-γ expression depends on continued lymphocyte proliferation.
|
| 265 |
21876173
|
Such proliferation-dependent variation in cytokine production appears tied to the epigenetic signatures within the ifnG and tnfA proximal promoters.
|
| 266 |
21976969
|
Microarray and qRT-PCR data analyses showed significant upregulation of some cytotoxicity-related genes, including those from the granzyme family, tumor necrosis factor, Fas Ligand, and chemokines, in the spleen cells of IFNg KO mice.
|
| 267 |
21976969
|
Furthermore, CD8+ cells instead of NK cells of IFNg KO mice exhibited increased transcription of cytotoxic genes compared with WT mice.
|
| 268 |
21976969
|
Additionally, Schistosoma japonicum-specific egg antigen immunization also could activate CD8+ T cells to upregulate the expression of cytotoxic genes in IFNg KO mice.
|
| 269 |
22019771
|
We used a gene panel of regulatory/inflammatory molecules (FOXP3, GATA3, IL10, TGFB1, TGFBR1/ TBX21, TNF and IFNG) to investigate the gene expression profile in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of renal-transplanted individuals experiencing OT compared to transplanted individuals not displaying OT and healthy individuals (HI).
|
| 270 |
22019771
|
OT subjects showed a predominant regulatory (REG) profile with higher gene expression of GATA3, FOXP3, TGFB1 and TGFB receptor 1 compared to the other groups.
|
| 271 |
22186103
|
In this study, the presence of cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) and interferon gamma (IFNG), and their receptors (TNFRI, TNFRII and IFNRI), was investigated in equine CL throughout the luteal phase.
|
| 272 |
22186103
|
The effects of TNF and IFNG on secretory function and viability of luteal cells were defined in vitro.
|
| 273 |
22186103
|
In the mid luteal phase, TNF increased PGF(2α) secretion and TNF+IFNG decreased PGE(2) secretion.
|
| 274 |
22186103
|
In the regressing luteal phase, TNF, IFNG and TNF+IFNG decreased P(4) and PGE(2) secretion, but TNF and TNF+IFNG increased PGF(2α) secretion by luteal cells.
|
| 275 |
22186103
|
Cell viability was reduced by TNF+IFNG in regressing CL.
|
| 276 |
22186103
|
These data show the presence of cytokines TNF and IFNG, and their receptors, in the equine CL and indicate their potential involvement in regulation of luteal function.

Complex association analysis of copaxone (glatiramer acetate) immunotherapy efficacy with allelic polymorphism in the number of immune response genes, which encode interferone beta (IFNB1), transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFB1), interferone gamma (IFNG), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interferon alpha/beta receptor 1 (IFNAR1), CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5), interleukin 7 receptor alpha subunit (IL7RA), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) and HLA class II histocompatibility antigen beta chain (DRB1) was performed with APSampler algorithm for 285 multiple sclerosis patients of Russian ethnicity.
|
| 278 |
22295566
|
The results show evidence for the contribution of polymorphic variants in CCRS, DRB1, IFNG, TGFB1, IFNAR1, IL7RA and, probably, TNF and CTLA4 genes to copaxone treatment response.
|
| 279 |
22295566
|
Single alleles of CCR5 and DRB1 genes are reliably associated with treatment efficacy.
|

22307794
|
The SNP c.611 T>A showed significant association with the transcription levels of IFNG, TNFA, and IL-6 (P < 0.05); the SNP c.962 G>A showed significant association with the transcription of IFNG, IL-2, and IL-4 (P < 0.05); the SNP c.1,027 C>A showed significant association with the transcription of IFNG and IL-6 (P < 0.05); the haplotypes showed significant association with the transcription of IFNG, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and TNFA (P < 0.05).

β (CCL2) and α (CXCL10) chemokine modulations by cytokines and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α agonists in Graves' ophthalmopathy.
|
| 282 |
22378921
|
No data are present in the literature about the effect of cytokines on the prototype β chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) or of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα (PPARA)) activation on CCL2 and CXCL10 chemokines secretion in fibroblasts or preadipocytes in Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO).
|
| 283 |
22378921
|
We have tested the effect of interferon γ (IFNγ (IFNG)) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) on CCL2, and for comparison on the prototype α chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), and the possible modulatory role of PPARα activation on secretion of these chemokines in normal and GO fibroblasts or preadipocytes in primary cell cultures.
|
| 284 |
22378921
|
PPARα activators were able to inhibit the secretion of CXCL10 and CCL2, while PPARγ activators were confirmed to be able to inhibit CXCL10 but had no effect on CCL2.
|
| 285 |
22378921
|
In conclusion, CCL2 and CXCL10 are modulated by IFNγ and TNFα in GO.
|
| 286 |
22378921
|
PPARα activators inhibit the secretion of the main prototype α (CXCL10) and β (CCL2) chemokines in GO fibroblasts or preadipocytes, suggesting that PPARα may be involved in the modulation of the immune response in GO.

|
Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of cytokines--tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF), interferon gamma (IFNG) and Fas ligand (FASL)--on in vitro modulation of angiogenic activity and mRNA level of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF), its receptor VEGFR2, thrombospondin 1 (TSP1), and its receptor CD36 in equine corpus luteum (CL) throughout the luteal phase.
|
| 288 |
22492973
|
The role of VEGF on regulation of luteal secretory capacity was assessed by progesterone (P(4)) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production and by mRNA levels for steroidogenic enzymes 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3betaHSD) and PGE synthase (PGES).
|
| 289 |
22492973
|
In early CL cells, TNF increased angiogenic activity (bovine aortic endothelial cell viability) and VEGF and VEGFR2 mRNA levels and decreased CD36 (real-time PCR relative quantification).
|
| 290 |
22492973
|
In mid-CL cells, TNF increased VEGF mRNA and protein expression (Western blot analysis) and reduced CD36 mRNA levels, while FASL and TNF+IFNG+FASL decreased VEGF protein expression.
|
| 291 |
22492973
|
In late CL cells, TNF and TNF+IFNG+FASL reduced VEGFR2 mRNA, but TNF+IFNG+FASL increased TSP1 and CD36 mRNA.
|
| 292 |
22492973
|
VEGF treatment increased mRNA levels of 3betaHSD and PGES and secretion of P(4) and PGE(2).
|
| 293 |
22492973
|
In conclusion, these findings suggest a novel auto/paracrine action of cytokines, specifically TNF, on the up-regulation of VEGF for angiogenesis stimulation in equine early CL, while at luteolysis, cytokines down-regulated angiogenesis.

Cytokines induce tight junction disassembly in airway cells via an EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2-pathway.
|
| 295 |
22584669
|
To evaluate in vitro whether pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of respiratory disorders could alter TJ organization and epithelial barrier integrity, and to characterize the signal transduction pathway involved Calu-3 airway epithelial cells were exposed to TNF-a, IL-4 and IFN-g to assess changes in: (a) TJ assembly, that is, occludin and zonula occludens (ZO)-1 expression and localization, evaluated by confocal microscopy; (b) apoptotic activity, quantified using terminal transferase deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling staining; (c) epithelial barrier integrity, detected as transmembrane electrical resistance and expressed as G(T) values; (d) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-dependent mitogenactivated protein (MAP) kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK)1/2 phosphorylation, assessed by western blotting.
|
| 296 |
22584669
|
The degree ZO-1 and occludin colocalization was 62±2% in control cultures and significantly decreased in the presence of TNF-a (47±3%), IL-4 (43±1%) and INF-g (35±3%).
|
| 297 |
22584669
|
G(T) values were, respectively, 1.030±0.0, 1.300±0.04, 1.260±0.020 and 2.220±0.015 (mS/cm²)1000 in control cultures and in those exposed to TNF-a, IFN-g and IL-4.
|
| 298 |
22584669
|
The involvement of EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathway in cytokine-induced damage was demonstrated by a significant increase in threonine/tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK1/2, already detectable after 5 min incubation.
|
| 299 |
22584669
|
All these cytokine-induced changes were markedly prevented when Calu-3 cells were cultured in the presence of an EGFR inhibitor (AG1478, 1 μM) or a MAP kinase inhibitor (U0126, 25 μM).
|
| 300 |
22584669
|
In conclusion, cytokine-induced epithelial injury includes TJ disassembly and epithelial barrier permeability alteration and involves the EGFR-dependent MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathway.
|
| 301 |
22847916
|
The purpose of the present study was to elucidate if tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF), interferon γ (IFNG), and/or progesterone (P4) play roles in regulating NO generating system in LECs.
|
| 302 |
22847916
|
Cultured bovine LECs obtained from the CL at the mid-luteal stage (Days 8-12 of the cycle) were treated for 24 hr with TNF (2.9 nM), IFNG (2.5 nM), or P4 (0.032-32 µM).
|
| 303 |
22847916
|
NO production was increased by TNF and IFNG, but decreased by P4 (P < 0.05).
|
| 304 |
22847916
|
TNF and IFNG stimulated the relative steady-state amounts of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA and iNOS protein expression (P < 0.05), whereas P4 inhibited relative steady-state amounts of iNOS mRNA and iNOS protein expression (P < 0.05).
|
| 305 |
22847916
|
TNF and IFNG stimulated NOS activity (P < 0.05) and 1400W, a specific inhibitor of iNOS, reduced NO production stimulated by TNF and IFNG in LECs (P < 0.05).
|
| 306 |
22847916
|
The overall findings suggest that TNF and IFNG accelerate luteolysis by increasing NO production via stimulation of iNOS expression and NOS activity in bovine LECs.
|
| 307 |
22847916
|
P4, on the other hand, may act in maintaining CL function by suppressing iNOS expression in bovine LECs.
|
| 308 |

|
We investigated the association between functional allelic variants of MIF (rs35688089), IFNG (rs2234688) and TNFA (rs1800629) in patients with MD.
|
| 310 |
23179933
|
Moreover, no genetic associations for variants in either the TNFA or IFNG genes and MD were found.

|
Mares were inseminated over five estrous cycles and endometrial biopsies were collected at one time point per cycle before (0) and 2, 6, 12, and 24 h after insemination. qPCR analysis for IL1B, IL6, IL8, IFNG, TNF (TNFA), IL10, and IL1RN was performed, and endometrial inflammatory cells were counted for each sample.
|
| 313 |
23580950
|
Cytokine mRNA increased at 2 h, peaked between 2 and 12 h, and then decreased.Differences were detected between groups of mares 6 h after challenge; resistant mares had higher mRNA expression of IL6, IL1RN,and IL10 than susceptible mares.
|
| 314 |

|
Therefore, the aim of this study was to verify if IFNG, IL12B, TNF, IL17A, IL10, and TGFB1 gene polymorphisms influence the immune response of Brazilian patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) at different time points of antituberculosis treatment (T1, T2, and T3).
|
| 315 |
23634300
|
Our results showed the following associations: IFNG +874 T allele and IFNG +2109 A allele with higher IFN- γ levels; IL12B +1188 C allele with higher IL-12 levels; TNF -308 A allele with higher TNF- α plasma levels in controls and mRNA levels in PTB patients at T1; IL17A A allele at rs7747909 with higher IL-17 levels; IL10 -819 T allele with higher IL-10 levels; and TGFB1 +29 CC genotype higher TGF- β plasma levels in PTB patients at T2.
|
| 316 |
23634300
|
The present study suggests that IFNG +874T/A, IFNG +2109A/G, IL12B +1188A/C, IL10 -819C/T, and TGFB1 +21C/T are associated with differential cytokine levels in pulmonary tuberculosis patients and may play a role in the initiation and maintenance of acquired cellular immunity to tuberculosis and in the outcome of the active disease while on antituberculosis treatment.

Arg1 deficiency did not affect the allergic response in lungs and large-airway resistance, but it improved peripheral lung function (tissue elastance and resistance) and attenuated adaptive increases in mRNA expression of arginine-catabolizing enzymes Arg2 and Nos2, arginine transporters Slc7a1 and Slc7a7, chemokines Ccl2 and Ccl11, cytokines Tnfa and Ifng, mucus-associated epithelial markers Clca3 and Muc5ac, and lung content of IL-13 and CCL11.

However, expression of Il4, Il5, Il10, and Il13 mRNA; lung content of IL-4, IL-5, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ protein; and lung pathology were not affected.

|
Moreover, TNF, IFNG and FASL were shown to regulate equine CL establishment and regression.

|
TNF increased eNOS mRNA level and NO metabolite (nitrite) production during CL growth.
|
| 325 |
23941776
|
Cytokines combined action (TNF+IFNG+FASL) promoted eNOS protein upregulation in mid-CL and nitrite production in mid and late-CL.
|
| 326 |

|
These results indicate that in equine CL, cytokines TNF, IFNG and FASL regulate NO activity, via eNOS expression modulation.

The gene expression of cytokines/chemokines in skin biopsies from the CL group showed higher transcript levels of modulatory (IL10 and TGFB1), anti-inflammatory (IL4), and pro-inflammatory (TNF, IFNG, IL12B, CCL2, CCL3, CCL5, CXCL10) biomarkers in recent lesions than in late lesions.

Peripheral and site-specific CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from rheumatoid arthritis patients show distinct characteristics.
|
| 332 |
24313359
|
Proinflammatory CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells are frequently found in the circulation of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but are less common in the rheumatic joint.
|
| 333 |
24313359
|
In the present study, we sought to identify functional differences between CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from blood and synovial fluid in comparison with conventional CD28-expressing CD4(+) T cells.
|
| 334 |
24313359
|
Forty-four patients with RA, displaying a distinct CD4(+) CD28(null) T cell population in blood, were recruited for this study; the methylation status of the IFNG locus was examined in isolated T cell subsets, and intracellular cytokine production (IFN-γ, TNF, IL-17) and chemokine receptor expression (CXCR3, CCR6 and CCR7) were assessed by flow cytometry on T cells from the two compartments.
|
| 335 |
24313359
|
Circulating CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were significantly more hypomethylated in the CNS-1 region of the IFNG locus than conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells and produced higher levels of both IFN-γ and TNF after TCR cross-linking.
|
| 336 |
24313359
|
CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from the site of inflammation expressed significantly more CXCR3 and CCR6 compared to their counterparts in blood.
|
| 337 |
24313359
|
While IL-17A production could hardly be detected in CD4(+) CD28(null) cells from the blood, a significant production was observed in CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells from synovial fluid.
|
| 338 |
24313359
|
CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells were not only found to differ from conventional CD4(+) CD28(+) T cells in the circulation, but we could also demonstrate that synovial CD4(+) CD28(null) T cells showed additional effector functions (IL-17 coproduction) as compared to the same subset in peripheral blood, suggesting an active role for these cells in the perpetuation of inflammation in the subset of patients having a CD28(null) population.
