The activity of microglial cells is strictly controlled in order to maintain central nervous system (CNS) immune privilege. We hypothesized that several immunomodulatory factors present in the CNS parenchyma, i.e., the Th2-derived cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10, interleukin-1-receptor-antago

The effects of IL-1 p and TGF-P on the biosynthesis of extracellular matrix structural components relative to the metalloproteinases and their inhibitor TlMPl in human articular chondrocytes were investigated. It has been proposed that TGFp, acting as a positive regulator of matrix accretion, can co
The pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 (IL-1), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF-␣), and nitric oxide (NO) can be produced by activated glial cells and play a critical role in various neurological diseases. Using primary co-cultures of rat microglial and astroglial cells, we investigated th
