Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiagnostic Potential of Inflammatory Biomarker Levels in the Serum of Patients with Hepatitis B Infection: A Retrospective StudyHyeokjun Yun, Bo Kyeung Jung, In Soo Rheem et al.This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic biomarker potential of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Procalcitonin (PCT) levels in the serum of individuals infected with the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV). The patients were divided into two age groups: Younger (<60 years) and older (≥60 years). An Electrochemiluminescence Immunoassay (ECLIA) platform was employed for the serological analysis to quantify the biomarker levels. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2023 · 5,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Therapeutic Effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Knee Osteoarthritis: Possible Role of Inflammatory CytokinesMohammed H. Hassan, Sawsan Abuhamdah et al.Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial disease that commonly affects the knee. Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) regulates inflammation during OA. Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) may be involved in the pathophysiology of arthritis. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may reduce pain associated with OA. The present study assessed the possible therapeutic effects of PRP in patients with OA of the knee with varying … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2021 · 6,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReduced Levels of Testosterone Induce LDL Oxidation and Atherosclerotic Lesions Involving Inflammatory Imbalance and Reduced Macrophage ApoptosisPlacielle Fiorezi Filete, Flávia de Souza Andrade Moraes, Girlandia Alexandre Brasil et al.Atherosclerosis is among the major cardiovascular diseases that cause death in the world. Men who are deficient in androgen hormones are more susceptible to this disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of reduced levels of testosterone on the lipid profile, pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines, apoptosis of peritoneal macrophages and the development of atherosclerosis in LDLr-/-mice, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 6 Dec 2019 · 7,338 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDouble Application of Translocator Protein Ligands and RAW Cells Inflammatory MilieuMaria Staykova, Filomena Mattner, David Linares, Andrew KatsifisLigands targeting the translocator protein exhibit a variety of anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. A double application of eight translocator protein ligands to activated murine macrophage-like cells changed to a different extent the levels of secreted reactive nitrogen intermediates, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. To our knowledge this is the first report suggesting that multiple applications of different translocator protein ligands may … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2016 · 6,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalgesic and Anti-inflammatory Activity of Euphorbia antiquorum LinnBanibrata Das, Samina Alam, Rajib Bhattacharjee, Biplab Kumar DasEuphorbia antiquorum (L.) is used as traditional medicine for various ailments in Bangladesh. But the scientific basis for its use especially in pain and inflammation remains largely unknown. Therefore, the present study was designed to evaluate analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect of the aqueous ethanolic extract of the whole plant. The analgesic activity was evaluated by hot plate, acetic acid induced … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 27 Aug 2015 · 9,211 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessEvery word in the titleNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDFCite
