We investigated the production of tumor necrosis factor a by peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with chronic liver disease and its association with hepatitis activity. Tumor necrosis factor a production was measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Tumor necrosis factor a produ
To determine if activation-induced cytokine production is altered in CD2+ lymphocytes from B-CLL patients, cytokine levels were determined by ELISA in supernatants of PHAstimulated cultures of CD2+ cells from 33 B-CLL patients and 22 healthy controls. The production of Interferon β₯ (IFN-β₯) and Tumor
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is a disease that typically affects middle-aged women and is characterized by progressive intrahepatic cholestasis which leads ultimately to cirrhosis, portal hypertension and hepatocellular failure (1). The underlying histopathological lesion in PBC is a chronic, non
"Sho-saiko-to" (TJ-9) consists of 7 herbal components. In Japan, it is widely prescribed to patients with chronic viral liver disease. TJ-9 is known to suppress liver cancer development and possess macrobiotic effects, but its mode of action is not fully understood. This study investigated the follo
