Plasma levels of IL-1β, TNFα and their specific inhibitors in undialyzed chronic renal failure, CAPD and hemodialysis patients

Abstract: The presence of naturally occurring inhibitors of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in a variety of diseases has been demonstrated. The IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) binds to IL-1 receptors and blocks the activity of IL-1, and a soluble form of the p55 TNF receptor (TNFsRp55) binds and neutralizes TNF. In the present study, plasma levels of IL-1 beta, IL-1Ra, TNF alpha and TNFsRp55 were measured in 29 undialyzed patients with chronic renal failure (CRF), 13 patients on continuous ambulat… Show more

“…In addition and confirming previous results, the present study shows that CKD is associated with an inflammatory state, because the patients presented high levels of inflammatory biomarkers (30,31). This inflammatory state also could explain the high incidence of atherosclerotic complications in patients with CKD because atherosclerosis is considered a chronic vascular inflammatory disorder (32). Although in comparison with healthy control subjects with normal renal function, no changes were observed in the median plasma levels of adipokines (leptin or adiponectin) considering the whole group of patients with CKD, however, patients with stage 4 CKD (eGFR Ͻ30Ͼ15 ml/min) had significant higher adiponectin levels than control subjects with normal renal function.…”

“…The process of dialysis is also known to cause increases in some cytokines such as TNF-a although changes induced by dialysis vary with the type of membranes used (Cavaillon et al, 1992;Jorres et al, 1992;Nakahama et al, 1992;Ward and Gordon, 1993;Canivet et al, 1994;Halwachs et al, 1994;Leeuwenberg et al, 1994;Pereira et al, 1994). This probably accounts for the higher TNF-a concentrations seen in the anephric patient before treatment with IL-2.…”
