Ovarian cancer arises mostly from the ovarian surface epithelium. The aim of our study was to compare the effects of cytokines in ovarian surface epithelial (OSE) cells and in ovarian carcinoma cells. Proliferation and expression of surface antigens (CA-I25 and classes I and II antigens of the major

While it is well known that interferon-␥ (IFN␥) and tumor necrosis factor-␣ (TNF␣) play a role in the regulation of thyroid growth and differentiated functions, the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in mediating the effects of IFN␥ and TNF␣ on thyroid function are unknown. In the present st
Monocyte/macrophage polypeptides (monokines) alter the properties of synovial cells. This interaction could explain some of the properties of the inflamed synovium in rheumatic disease. Only recently has it been possible to test the action of purified monokines on the target synovial cells. We repor
One of the biological functions of lactoferrin is the modulation of the host defense systems, including cytokine production and immune responses. We have tested the effect of lactoferrin on the productions of tumor necrosis factor-␣ and nitric oxide in some cells. Lactoferrin itself did not induce e
