Abstrakt: |
Induction and downregulation of cytokine production occurs after contact with various inflammatory stimuli. To elucidate the early events after a physical stressor, we studied these processes in 13 patients undergoing elective total hip replacement surgery. In these patients we followed the plasma concentrations of tumour necrosis factor α (TNF), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6 and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), mRNA for these cytokines in peripheral blood cells (PBCs), and the lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-stimulated ex vivo production of these cytokines in whole blood cultures (WBCs). |
