Inflammatory responses and inflammation-associated diseases in organs
Abstract: Inflammation is a biological response of the immune system that can be triggered by a variety of factors, including pathogens, damaged cells and toxic compounds. These factors may induce acute and/or chronic inflammatory responses in the heart, pancreas, liver, kidney, lung, brain, intestinal tract and reproductive system, potentially leading to tissue damage or disease. Both infectious and non-infectious agents and cell damage activate inflammatory cells and trigger inflammatory signaling pathways, most commo…

“…Antiinflammatory agents elicit down-regulation of COX-2 expression and restoration of tumor suppressor p53 level, by increasing the activation of Nrf2 and upregulation of TGF-β. [57][58][59]5 The findings from this study is in congruent with previous reports, showing decreased COX-2 activity and NFκB concentration in PBRF treated rats compared to untreated rats. Agents rich in polyphenols elicit an inhibitory inflammatory response of NF-κB, and upregulate anti-inflammatory gene transcription factors.…”
