It is shown that both the period of exacerbation, and the period of clinical remission of chronic herpes infection are characterized by increased production of IFN-g, IL-1b and IL-6. However, only the mean values of IL-1b were significantly different in periods of exacerbation and remission. Moreover, patients with chronic herpes infection revealed significant heterogeneity of individual values of measured cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6 and IFN-g), which does not depend on the period of clinical disease.展开更多

We have found that in the mechanism of development of diabetic retinopathy, significant role plays an activation of local inflammation process and vascular proliferation. This is evidenced by a significant increase in the vitreous concentration of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A and vascular endothelial growth factor. Identified correlations between VEGF and IL-17A, between VEGF and IL-4, and between IL-17A and IL-4 show the relationship of inflammation and proliferation processes in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy.展开更多
