Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of vitamin C on intracytoplasmic cytokine production in human whole blood monocytes and lymphocytes.
TL;DR: Data suggest that vitamin C selectively influences intracytoplasmic cytokine production and therefore, further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of immunomodulation, i.e. regulation of NF kappa B activation which is mandatory for the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immature anti-inflammatory response in neonates.
TL;DR: It is concluded that neonates display an immature compensatory anti‐inflammatory response syndrome (CARS) which may predispose preterm infants to harmful effects of proinflammatory cytokines resulting in severe organ sequelae during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine responses correlate differentially with age in infancy and early childhood

TL;DR: These findings are valuable for further assessment of normal variations and maturation processes in immune cell responses and for the clinical–therapeutic monitoring of immunological status in various childhood diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential maturation of the innate immune response in human fetuses.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that significant numbers of fetal monocytes are capable of the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to stimulation, and the pattern of cytokine production is different from the more mature individuals: the number of IL-6 – and tumor necrosis factor-α–positive monocytes were significantly diminished, whereas more IL-8 –producing monocyte were found compared with adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose-dependent immunomodulatory effects of acetylsalicylic acid and indomethacin in human whole blood: potential role of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition.
TL;DR: The data emphasize that the immunomodulating effects of NSAIDs in whole blood are dose‐dependent, and the induction of pro‐inflammatory cytokine expression by NSAIDs is potentially mediated by COX‐2 inhibition.
