Increased gene expression of tumor necrosis factor superfamily ligands in peripheral blood mononuclear cells during chronic heart failure
1 Apr 2002
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Inflammation may play a pathogenic role in chronic heart failure (CHF). The objective of the study was to characterise the imbalance in the cytokine network in CHF. METHODS: cDNA expression arrays were used to analyse the gene expression of cytokines and related mediators in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from CHF patients (n=8) and healthy controls (n=8). Real-time quantitative reverse...
