1 | Alveolar macrophages from patients with beryllium disease and sarcoidosis express increased levels of mRNA for tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 but not interleukin-1 beta. | Beryllium | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
2 | We hypothesized that alveolar macrophages and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with beryllium disease and sarcoidosis would express increased levels of mRNA and proteins, respectively, for TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 compared with those of normal individuals. | Beryllium | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
3 | In patients with beryllium disease (n = 23), we observed elevated macrophage mRNA expression for TNF-alpha and IL-6 when compared with that of normal subjects (n = 7). | Beryllium | interleukin 6 | Homo sapiens |
