Study the Role of Interleukin-4, Interleukin-17 and Interleukin-35 in Diagnosis and Prognosis of Preeclampsia in Egyptian Patients

Asthma is a complex heterogeneous respiratory disorder. In recent years nubbly regions of the role of genetic variants and transcriptome including mRNAs, microRNAs, and long non-coding RNAs in the pathogenesis of asthma have been separately excavated and reported. However, how to systematically integrate and decode this scattered information remains unclear. Further exploration would improve understanding of the internal communication of asthma. To excavate new insights into the pathogenesis of asthma, we ascertained three asthma characteristics according to reviews, airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway remodeling. We manually created a contemporary catalog of corresponding risk transcriptome, including mRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs. MIMP is a multiplex-heterogeneous networks-based approach, measuring the relevance of disease characteristics to the pathway by examining the similarity between the determined vectors of risk transcriptome and pathways in the same low-dimensional vector space. It was developed to enable a more concentrated and in-depth exploration of potential pathways. We integrated experimentally validated competing endogenous RNA regulatory information and the SNPs with significant pathways into the ceRNA-mediated SNP switching pathway network (CSSPN) to analyze ceRNA regulation of pathways and the role of SNP in these dysfunctions. We discovered 11 crucial ceRNA regulations concerning asthma disease feature pathway and propose a potential mechanism of ceRNA regulatory SNP → gene → pathway → disease feature effecting asthma pathogenesis, especially for MALAT1 (rs765499057/rs764699354/rs189435941) → hsa-miR-155 → IL13 (rs201185816/rs1000978586/rs202101165) → Interleukin-4 and Interleukin-13 signaling → inflammation/airway remodeling and MALAT1 (rs765499057/rs764699354/rs189435941) → hsa-miR-155 → IL17RB (rs948046241) → Interleukin-17 signaling (airway remodeling)/Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (inflammation). This study showed a systematic and propagable workflow for capturing the potential SNP “switch” of asthma through text and database mining and provides further information on the pathogenesis of asthma.

Osteomyelitis of the lower jaw is one of the urgent problems of modern medicine. There are many reasons for the evolvement of purulent necrotic processes of the jaw bones, including the role of disorders in the systems of innate and adaptive immunity. The aim of the study was to determine the content of TNFα, IL-17, IL-4 in serum and mixed saliva in patients with uncomplicated mandibular fractures and posttraumatic osteomyelitis to determine the possibility of using these indicators for early diagnosis of posttraumatic complications. The article presents the results of a study of tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) cytokines in serum and mixed saliva in patients with uncomplicated mandibular fracture and post-traumatic osteomyelitis at the first and tenth days of observation. By means of single-layer neural networks, binary classifiers were built, allowing patients to be stratified by the clinical form of the disease and to predict its course. The probability of uncomplicated mandibular fracture is described by the ratio P = 1/(1+e-z), where the index z is determined by the level of TNFα, IL-17, and IL-4 at the first and tenth day of observation. The simulation confirmed high prognostic significance of serum TNFα and IL-17 for early verification of posttraumatic osteomyelitis, which was confirmed by the OTC and ROC indices, which varied from 87 to 100% in different models. Models 4 and 5, where TNFα recorded on the tenth day of the study was used as predictors, and a combination of TNFα and IL-17 obtained on the first day of hospitalization, were the most accurate. Modeling the results of the study of immunological indicators in the mixed saliva showed that the predictive properties have only IL-4 and IL-17, was on the tenth day of hospitalization that distinguishes these binary classifiers from similar indexes, derive from the levels of cytokines in blood serum. The results of the study indicate the important role of disorders in the system of рro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in pathogenesis of post-traumatic osteomyelitis.

The role of miR-21 in the pathogenesis of various liver diseases, together with the possibility of detecting microRNA in the circulation, makes miR-21 a potential biomarker for noninvasive detection. In this review, we summarize the potential utility of extracellular miR-21 in the clinical management of hepatic disease patients and compared it with the current clinical practice. MiR-21 shows screening and prognostic value for liver cancer. In liver cirrhosis, miR-21 may serve as a biomarker for the differentiating diagnosis and prognosis. MiR-21 is also a potential biomarker for the severity of hepatitis. We elucidate the disease condition under which miR-21 testing can reach the expected performance. Though miR-21 is a key regulator of liver diseases, microRNAs coordinate with each other in the complex regulatory network. As a result, the performance of miR-21 is better when combined with other microRNAs or classical biomarkers under certain clinical circumstances.

The objective: was to investigate the levels of cytokines IL-4 and IL-17 in serum and conditioned medium cultures of blood mononuclear cells (MNC) and evaluation association between their products and miscarriage, which occurred in IVF cycles. Patients and methods. We observed 240 patients with recurrent miscarriage, came in IVF cycles, and 100 apparently healthy fertile women in the control group. The concentrations of IL-4 and IL-17 in serum and conditioned medium of MNC cultures were determined. Results. The levels of IL-4 in the serum and conditioned medium in spontaneous and stimulated mitogen secretion was not significantly different from those in the control group, whereas IL-17 levels were higher than those in the control group serum, in conditioned media of stimulated and non-stimulated MNCs. Conclusion. Disregulation of activity of circulating blood mononuclear cells in women with recurrent miscarriage that followed IVF, is accompanied by increased secretion of IL-17 and almost constant production of IL-4 on the back of high stimulation index of production of these cytokines. Key words: in vitro fertilization, miscarriage, interleukin-4, interleukin-17, serum stimulated and non-stimulated mononuclear blood.
