... excessive cytokine production and release in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Systemic inflammation is found in infants with NE, and we therefore were interested in cytokines associated with hypoxia, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and erythropoietin (Epo). Objective: To investigate...

.... The mean absolute eosinophil count of 6 infants in group 2 who died <48 h after the onset of NEC was 0.12 × 10 9 cells/l. The pathology of their small intestine involved a bloodless and necrotic bowel. This devitalized intestine likely produced low amounts of cytokines and chemokines. We suggest...

... determined monocyte HLA-DR expression by flow cytometry and measured 13 cytokines, cortisol, and BM in plasma from 56 VLBW infants. We calculated total glucocorticoid index as the sum of BM and cortisol at the ratio 33.3:1. Results: HLA-DR expression both in cord (R 2 = 0.175, p = 0.033, n = 26) and on day 1...

Objective: The aim of this study was to identify cytokine markers within the first weeks of life that could be used to predict the risk for development of ROP later in life. Methods: Serum levels of 27 different cytokines...

Growing evidence has indicated that in addition to ischemia/reperfusion injury, cytokine-induced brain injury associated with maternal or fetal infection may also play an important role in the pathogenesis of PVL. Recent studies have shown that administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS...

Moreover, this vitamin is involved in the modulation of immunological and inflammatory responses by regulation of cytokine production. The aim of the study was to compare the in vitro effect of vitamin A on the production of pro...

Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that EGF normalizes cytokine overproduction in the liver of neonatal rats with NEC, which contributes to diminished intestinal damage during the development of experimental NEC. These data suggest...
