Cytokine profiles in localized scleroderma and relationship to clinical features - 0 views

  • Evaluation of the literature reveals a Th2 predominant cytokine profile in the biological specimens (sera, PBMCs, and tissue) of those with SSc
  • the literature available from studies in LS show that Th1, Th2, and Th17 cytokines may contribute equally to the pathogenesis of the disease
  • Classically, Th1 cells have been known to secrete IL-2, IFN-γ, and TNF-α, and are stimulated by IL-2 and IL-12
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Th2 cells have been shown to be activated by IL-4 and produce IL-4, IL-5, IL-10 and IL-13
  • Th17 cells, a more recently identified Th cell subset that has altered the classic Th1/Th2 paradigm, produce IL-17 A/F, IL-21, and IL-22. IL-1, IL-6, IL-23, and TGF-β are now known to play important roles in the differentiation and propagation of the Th17 cell lineage
  • there is an overall notion that pro-inflammatory Th1 and Th17 associated cytokines are elevated during the early stages of scleroderma, whereas Th2 cytokines mainly correlate with disease damage and fibrosis extent

    Great article!!  Nice discussion of the complexity of hormones.  Women on aromatase inhibitors can make estrogen from Testosterone.  This is important with estrogen sensitive cancer as in breast cancer.  This will occur via alternative pathways: Testosterone to DHT via 5 alpha reductase and then DHT to 3 beta androstanediol via 3 beta HSD.  3 beta androstanediol is a male hormone metabolite that binds to estrogen receptors.  The affinity is less than Estradiol, but appears to have a higher affinity for ER beta over ER alpha.
