Abstract

The aim of the work was a comprehensive assessment of the cytokine system and peripheral blood osteocalcin with the establishment of features of their interconnections in children with congenital cleft lip and palate (CCLP) in comparison with corresponding controls at different age periods. Levels of IL17, IL4, IL6, IL1β, IFNγ and osteocalcin were analyzed by enzyme immunoassay in the peripheral blood of 80 children (0-12 months, 1-3 years, 4-9 years, 10-15 years) with CCLP and age-appropriate control of healthy individuals (40 people). An analysis of the obtained data shows that in children with CCLP we revealed significant differences between pro-inflammatory (IL1β, IL6, IL17), regulatory (IFNγ), anti-inflammatory (IL4) cytokines and osteocalcin compared with controls. Differences were found in the content of IL17, IFNγ, IL4 and osteocalcin in healthy children and in children with CCLP in postnatal ontogenesis. Cytokine deregulation of immunosteogenesis in CCLP, leading to a significant deficit of osteocalcin in the first year of life due to imbalance of the cytokine profile: discordant IL17, IFNγ and IL4 were detected. Obtained data are undoubtedly important in the future for developing new strategies for targeted therapy ai...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
