Circulating cytokines in Alzheimer's disease

Journal of Psychiatric Research

Abstract

Immune factors may be involved in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease. Since immune activation precedes immune-mediated processes, we measured plasma levels of four selective cytokines: interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-12 (IL-12), interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha), and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). The level of IL-6, but not other cytokines, was significantly elevated. The increase of circulating IL-6 indicates immune activation presumably related to pathophysiology of the disease.

Blood Brain Barrier Chips

The blood brain barrier (BBB) is comprised of endothelial cells that regulate the influx and outflux of plasma concentrations. Lab-on-a-chip devices allow scientists to model diseases and mechanisms such as the passage of therapeutic antibodies across the BBB. Discover the latest research on BBB chips here.

Blood Brain Barrier

The blood brain barrier is a border that separates blood from cerebrospinal fluid. Discover the latest search on this highly selective semipermeable membrane here.

Blood Brain Barrier & Cytokines

Some cytokines are able to cross the blood brain barrier through transport systems and enter the cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid spaces. Here is the latest research on cytokines crossing the blood brain barrier and how this can affect tissues within the CNS.
