Does [ Interleukin-17 contribute to the macrophage secretion of interleukin-27 in a murine model of viral myocarditis ]?
Our data indicates that cytokine IL-17 may contribute to the secretion of IL-27 in VMC mice.Furthermore, macrophages but not lymphocytes may be the important IL-27-producing immune cells and major target cells for IL-17. Thus,IL-27 and IL-17 might be actively involved in the pathogenesis of VMC.
Preoperative assessment with FDG-PET/CT is not useful for hepatic colorectal metastases, particularly when preoperative chemotherapy is used, with a trend towards underestimation of lesions.
