Tissue and Circulating Expression of IL-1 Family Members Following Heat Stroke.

摘要

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is thought to have a significant role in the pathophysiology of heat stroke (HS), although little is known regarding the actions or expression patterns of the IL-1 family. This study tested the hypotheses that following HS IL-1 family gene expression is dynamic, while loss of IL-1 signaling enhances recovery. IL-1 family expression was determined in plasma, spleen, and liver from C57BL/6J mice (n = 24 control, n = 20 HS) at maximum core temperature (Tc,Max), hypothermia, and 24 h post-HS (24 h). Soluble IL-1 receptor subtype I (sIL-1RI) protein expression peaked at 24 h (14, 659.01 + 2,016.28 pg/ml).
