Steroids 56-64 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 29-32 24653848-6 2014 We report a rare case of steroid resistant Crohn"s disease associated with multivisceral sarcoidosis, treated successfully by an anti-TNF alpha agent, infliximab. Steroids 25-32 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 134-143 24225487-2 2014 RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple case series and observational studies support the use of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) medications, in particular infliximab, in patients who relapse upon tapering steroids and/or adding nonbiologic immunosuppressive agents. Steroids 193-201 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 83-109 24225487-2 2014 RECENT FINDINGS: Multiple case series and observational studies support the use of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) medications, in particular infliximab, in patients who relapse upon tapering steroids and/or adding nonbiologic immunosuppressive agents. Steroids 193-201 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 111-114 23574282-4 2013 In patients with more severe disease, although anti-TNF agents are more powerful and act more rapidly, there is a subset of patients with moderate-to-severe IBD without important anatomical damage who may achieve a prolonged steroid-free clinical and anatomical remission on azathioprine monotherapy. Steroids 225-232 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 52-55 23901289-10 2013 CONCLUSION: TNF antagonists allowed significant steroid sparing and were well tolerated, but do not seem to be effective against sarcoidosis joint involvement. Steroids 48-55 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 12-15 24105393-9 2013 Older steroid-responsive patients were less likely to start an anti-TNF agent during the first year of follow-up than younger patients (7% versus 31%, P = 0.006), but there was no difference in 1-year colectomy rates (27% versus 28%, P = 0.63).

Steroids 48-55 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 16-25 24471301-15 2013 According to available data, it seems that early intensive therapy with anti-TNF drugs as monotherapy or in combination with immunosuppressive drugs in this group of patients increases possibility of induction of remission, mucosal healing and maintenance of steroid-free remission. Steroids 259-266 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 77-80 24471301-16 2013 Candidates for anti-TNF therapy are also patients who did not respond to conventional treatment, patients with moderate or severe disease who are intolerant to steroids, patients in whom we expect severe adverse effects from steroid treatment, patients who do not accept steroid treatment and patients with frequent relapses and need for steroids. Steroids 225-232 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 20-23 23539523-8 2013 Larger case studies are needed to confirm the efficacy of TNF-alpha inhibition in steroid refractory CMUSE.

Steroids 108-115 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 76-79 23526476-11 2013 CONCLUSION: This case series suggests that anti-TNF-alpha drugs may improve the condition of a subgroup of patients with severe steroid-refractory asthma, with a favourable risk-benefit profile for most, considering asthma severity, occurrence of life-threatening exacerbations and complications of long-term oral steroids. Steroids 128-135 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 48-57 23526476-11 2013 CONCLUSION: This case series suggests that anti-TNF-alpha drugs may improve the condition of a subgroup of patients with severe steroid-refractory asthma, with a favourable risk-benefit profile for most, considering asthma severity, occurrence of life-threatening exacerbations and complications of long-term oral steroids. Steroids 314-322 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 48-57 22796281-7 2012 CONCLUSIONS: Anti-TNF therapy is associated with a small but significant risk of SI that is associated with the concomitant use of steroids, advanced age at the start of anti-TNF treatment, and the type of anti-TNF agent. Steroids 131-139 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 18-21 22735878-5 2012 However, infliximab, the chimeric monoclonal antibody to tumor necrosis factor-a, is now considered as a primary treatment because of the disease"s relatively high rate of steroid resistance.

Steroids 287-294 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 84-111 23165380-10 2012 RESULTS: Steroid nonresponders had the highest mean baseline plasma levels of TNF compared with steroid responders and control subjects (27.6, 24.1, and 14.4 pg/mL, respectively) (P = .03). Steroids 9-16 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 78-81 23153702-7 2012 However, the treatment with both steroids decreased the secretion of TNF-alpha, IL-18 and TGF-beta1 by EEC in the presence of ESC. Steroids 33-41 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 69-78 22876034-5 2012 Different randomized trials assessed the efficacy of anti-TNF treatment not only to induce, but also to maintain, steroid-free remission. Steroids 114-121 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 58-61 22504554-9 2012 Western blot analysis demonstrated that the expression of phosphorylated endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) increased, whereas that of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) decreased following the 96-h steroid treatment of TNF-alpha-stimulated HCAECs.

Steroids 0-8 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 176-185 23051721-5 2012 RESULTS: Treatment of steroid-resistant Crohn"s disease is based on the introduction of immunomodulators such as azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine or methotrexate, the anti-TNF drugs infliximab, adalimumab and certolizumab pegol. Steroids 22-29 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 170-173 22515220-6 2012 There was a clear chronologic relationship with, and clinical remission upon withdrawal or steroid suppression of the anti-TNF-alpha agents. Steroids 91-98 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 123-132 22284606-4 2012 The efficacy of immunosuppressive drugs like azathioprine methotrexate or anti-tumor necrosis factor antibodies appears to be too low to reduce the use of steroids.

Steroids 74-82 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 5-8 21972387-6 2011 Asthma control was achieved with inhaled steroids, allowing anti-TNF-alpha treatment to continue. Steroids 41-49 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 65-74 21751503-9 2011 There is increasing evidence that early intervention with immunosuppressives or biologic agents aimed at tumor necrosis factor-alpha usually has rapid and prolonged benefits, including steroid sparing, reductions in hospitalizations and, reductions in the need for surgery. Steroids 185-192 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 105-132 21210752-6 2011 Steroid sparing agents include antimetabolites such as methotrexate, azathioprine and mycophenolate mofetil; calcineurin inhibitors which include cyclosporine, tacrolimus; alkylating agents which include cyclophosphamide and chlorambucil; and biologics which include the TNF-alpha inhibitors infliximab, adalimumab and etanercept and daclizumab, IFN-alpha(2a) and rituximab.

Steroids 189-196 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 139-166 21591983-8 2011 TNF-alpha (-308) AG phenotype was detected to be significantly higher in steroid-refractory and splenectomized cases at the end of the first year than in the steroid-responsive (complete response (CR) and remission (R)) cases (OR: 4.137, 95% CI: 1.156-14.807, p < 0.05). Steroids 73-80 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-9 21591983-8 2011 TNF-alpha (-308) AG phenotype was detected to be significantly higher in steroid-refractory and splenectomized cases at the end of the first year than in the steroid-responsive (complete response (CR) and remission (R)) cases (OR: 4.137, 95% CI: 1.156-14.807, p < 0.05). Steroids 158-165 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-9 21591983-11 2011 With these findings, it was found that TNF-alpha/AG, TGF-beta 1/TT, IFN-gamma/TT, MBL/BB, and IL-1RA A1/A2 genotypes were detected as the genes of susceptibility to ITP, while TNF-alpha/AG, IFN-gamma/AA, and MBL/AB genotypes might be important in response to steroid treatment. Steroids 259-266 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 39-48 21386777-1 2010 We describe a patient on the tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonist, adalimumab, for 2 years for rheumatoid arthitis, who developed a rapidly progressive inflammatory neuropathy shortly after starting oral steroids. Steroids 206-214 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 29-56 20736834-6 2010 In addition to the concomitant and alternative use of immunosuppressive agents to steroid therapy, disease remission in refractory neuro-ophthalmic sarcoidosis with tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors has also been reported. Steroids 82-89 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 165-192 20175769-1 2010 BACKGROUND: The calcineurin inhibitor tacrolimus and the anti-TNF-antibody infliximab are established options in steroid-refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). Steroids 113-120 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 62-65 20833730-3 2010 IFNgamma and TNFalpha synergistically induce CXCL10 release from human ASM cells in a steroid-insensitive manner, via an as yet undefined mechanism. Steroids 86-93 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 13-21 20439544-2 2010 In contrast, glucocorticoids (GCs) are steroid hormones that suppress inflammation, at least in part by regulating the expression and action of TNF. Steroids 39-55 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 144-147 20833730-4 2010 We report that TNFalpha activates the classical NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB) pathway, whereas IFNgamma activates JAK2/STAT-1alpha and that inhibition of the JAK/STAT pathway is more effective in abrogating CXCL10 release than the steroid fluticasone. Steroids 235-242 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 15-23 20833730-8 2010 Our results provide evidence that synergism between TNFalpha and IFNgamma lies at the level of coactivator recruitment in human ASM and suggest that inhibition of JAK/STAT signaling may be of therapeutic benefit in steroid-resistant airway disease.

Steroids 61-68 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 88-91 20497138-4 2010 We selected English-language publications that addressed the effect of anti-TNF on steroid withdrawal. Steroids 83-90 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 76-79 21086936-4 2010 Failure of previous treatment and steroid dependency were the main reasons for initiating anti-TNF-alpha therapy. Steroids 34-41 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 95-104 20120429-6 2010 This report will discuss the possible mechanism of action of the addition of TNF-alpha inhibitors as a steroid-sparing agent in these patients. Steroids 103-110 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 77-86 20137155-5 2010 Many of these agents, such as mycophenolate mofetil, anti-tumor necrosis factor antibodies, and anti-interleukin-2Ralpha-chain antibodies, have demonstrated promising activity in steroid-refractory aGVHD. Steroids 179-186 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 58-79 20140224-0 2010 Gene expression profiling and network analysis reveals lipid and steroid metabolism to be the most favored by TNFalpha in HepG2 cells. Steroids 65-72 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 110-118 20140224-6 2010 CONCLUSIONS: TNFalpha alters the transcriptome profiling within HepG2 cells with an interesting catalog of genes being affected and those involved in lipid and steroid metabolism to be the most favored. Steroids 160-167 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 13-21 19147181-8 2010 Following withdrawal of anti-TNFalpha agents and a brief course of steroids, the clinical picture resolved. Steroids 67-75 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 29-37 20926883-15 2010 Clinical practice should change such that combination therapy with an anti-TNF agent and azathioprine replace azathioprine in patients failing first line therapy with mesalamine and/or steroids. Steroids 185-193 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 75-78 21686765-1 2009 This report describes the development of lymphoedema in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who was treated with tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) inhibitors.The patient was a 62-year-old woman with a long-standing history of RA that had been uncontrolled with steroids and methotrexate. Steroids 272-280 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 148-156 20025597-10 2009 An overall long lasting remission of less than 30% with scheduled administration of TNF-alpha blockers in patients with steroid dependent or refractory CD seems to be lifelike and alternative therapeutic options are warranted. Steroids 120-127 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 84-93 19533547-2 2009 Our aim was to assess the properties of the monoclonal TNF-alpha antibody infliximab in a patient with high-dose steroid refractory CS. Steroids 113-120 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 55-64 19326415-6 2009 Although anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha therapy has been widely used for the treatment of steroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease in the hematopoietic stem cell transplant setting, there previously have been no reported cases of its use in liver transplantation. Steroids 92-99 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 14-41 19027157-6 2009 Regulation of the TNF/TNFR system by steroid hormones also suggests a role in uterine function including menstrual cycle-dependent destruction and regeneration of endometrial tissue. Steroids 37-53 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 18-21 19896079-1 2009 Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-alpha) therapy with infliximab has shown to be effective for patients with steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). Steroids 113-120 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 5-32 19896079-1 2009 Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-alpha) therapy with infliximab has shown to be effective for patients with steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). Steroids 113-120 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 34-43 19542427-6 2009 Production of IL-1alpha, IL-10, IL-17, IFN-gamma, G-CSF, GM-CSF, TNF-alpha, and IFN-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) correlated significantly with in vitro steroid sensitivity; however, only IL-2 and TNF-alpha reduced steroid sensitivity when added exogenously. Steroids 152-159 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 65-74 19604433-11 2009 In one patient in whom the steroid dosage was increased due to poor response to anti-TNF-alpha therapy, brainstem infarction occurred four months later. Steroids 27-34 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 85-94 18932199-7 2009 Several TNF-R components were influenced by LH and/or steroid ablation; notably, steroid ablation reduced (P < 0.05) luteal TNF-alpha, but not TNF-beta, mRNA levels, which was prevented by progestin treatment. Steroids 81-88 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 127-136 18775652-4 2008 At admission in the responder subgroup, incubation with both steroids under basal conditions resulted in an increase of TNF-alpha levels, which decreased after treatment. Steroids 61-69 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 120-129 19436689-10 2009 CONCLUSIONS: EBC TNF-alpha level was low in patients receiving systemic steroid and antibiotic therapy for AECOPD. Steroids 72-79 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 17-26 18775652-5 2008 After stimulation with phytohemagglutinin, an enhancement of TNF-alpha suppression by steroids was detectable after successful antidepressive treatment. Steroids 86-94 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 61-70 19008611-12 2008 The GG genotype of IL-6 -G174C, TT genotype of IL-4 -C590T, and AA genotype of TNF-alpha -G308A cytokine gene polymorphisms may be causative factors for nonresponsiveness towards steroid therapy among INS children. Steroids 179-186 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 79-88 17947510-1 2008 We have previously shown that long-term treatment of airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells with a combination of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma impaired steroid anti-inflammatory action through the up-regulation of glucocorticoid receptor beta isoform (GRbeta) (Mol Pharmacol 2006;69:588-596). Steroids 141-148 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 108-117 19008611-11 2008 TNF-alpha revealed a strong association at genotypic level (P = 0.0121, OR = 14.71, 95% CI = 1.59-136.46), as well as at allelic level (P = 0.0433, OR = 2.251, 95% CI = 1.09-4.66), demonstrating that it may be considered one of the genetic risk factors affecting the steroid response in INS patients. Steroids 267-274 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-9 18541197-1 2008 Infliximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody (mAb) against tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, has shown activity against steroid refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). Steroids 119-126 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 57-90 17947510-2 2008 We here found that steroid actions could also be suppressed by short-term exposure of ASM cells to TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma (6 h) as shown by the abrogated glucocorticoid responsive element (GRE)-dependent gene transcription; surprisingly, neither GRalpha nuclear translocation nor GRbeta expression was affected by cytokine mixture. Steroids 19-26 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 99-108 18042798-3 2008 Because tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) is an important effector of experimental GVHD, we treated patients with new-onset GVHD with steroids plus the TNFalpha inhibitor etanercept on a previously reported pilot trial (n = 20) and a phase 2 trial (n = 41). Steroids 139-147 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 37-45 17202177-11 2007 However, clinical responses may not be due to direct effects of DMARDs on LILR expression but due to partial inhibition of LIRA2-mediated TNF-alpha production by steroids leading to suppression of inflammation. Steroids 162-170 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 138-147 17894921-3 2007 Biologic therapies, such as the anti-TNF agent infliximab, offer promise but are not without controversy; despite many positive reports, steroid-refractory patients are less likely than other individuals to respond to infliximab. Steroids 137-144 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 37-40 16850114-11 2007 Steroid-dependent or refractory cases may respond to other immunosuppressants including anti-TNF-alpha agents. Steroids 0-7 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 93-102 16944071-4 2007 There are few reports of treatment of refractory or steroid-dependent TA with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors including infliximab and etanercept. Steroids 52-59 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 78-105 16944071-4 2007 There are few reports of treatment of refractory or steroid-dependent TA with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors including infliximab and etanercept.

Steroids 0-7 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 48-57 17582178-7 2007 The levels of TNFa were suppressed by use of steroids. Steroids 45-53 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 14-18 17234454-3 2007 The aim of this study was to evaluate whether there was any relation between serum TNF-a levels and the response to ECP in patients with steroid refractory of extensive chronic GvHD. Steroids 137-144 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 83-88 18239400-3 2007 Anti-TNF agents represent choice alternatives for patients who do not respond to steroids or in whom steroids are contraindicated. Steroids 101-109 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 5-8 17909718-10 2007 Four hours after surgery, LPS-induced TNF-alpha secretion was significantly reduced in the steroid group, but it increased rapidly during the following days.

Steroids 53-60 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 28-37 17038555-6 2007 However, when the steroid production data were normalized by the cell number, TNF-alpha increased the basal production of cortisol, androstenedione, DHEA, DHEAS, and aldosterone (137, 121, 165, 73, and 28%, respectively), and the 8-bromo-cAMP-induced production of cortisol, DHEAS, and aldosterone (122, 121, and 256%, respectively). Steroids 18-25 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 78-87 16517575-7 2006 Sputum cells from COPD patients (both steroid free and steroid treated) produced significantly less TNFalpha than cells from healthy non-smoking subjects (p=0.017 and p=0.001, respectively).

Steroids 122-129 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 47-55 17117445-14 2006 CONCLUSIONS: In a pragmatic setting, anti-TNF therapy led to reduced need for steroid injections and other DMARDs, as well as reductions in use of several hospital resources. Steroids 78-85 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 42-45 16517575-7 2006 Sputum cells from COPD patients (both steroid free and steroid treated) produced significantly less TNFalpha than cells from healthy non-smoking subjects (p=0.017 and p=0.001, respectively).

Steroids 116-123 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 49-58 16291871-5 2006 We also found that TNFalpha and IFNgamma impaired GC responsiveness by inhibiting steroid induced both 1) GRalpha-DNA binding activity and 2) GC-responsive element-(GRE)-dependent gene transcription. Steroids 82-89 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 19-27 16549165-18 2006 The daily dose of steroid (mg/d) and A allele frequency for TNF-alpha -238 G/A genotype were significant predictors of HOMA index in linear regression analysis. Steroids 18-25 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 60-69 16710025-13 2006 Four other patients with steroid-refractory enterocolitis appeared to respond promptly to tumor necrosis factor alpha blockade with infliximab. Steroids 25-32 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 90-117 16539822-5 2006 More specifically, we propose that anti-TNF-alphaagents be considered in active PsA resistant to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, to at least two local steroid injections and at least 2 conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic agents (in cases of oligo/monoarthritis and/or enthesitis), and to at least two conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic agents (in patients with peripheral joints synovitis). Steroids 101-108 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 40-43 16988499-10 2006 RESULTS: Local administration of the TNF-alpha blocker allowed methylprednisolone to be tapered off without loss of hearing function in 4/5 steroid-dependent patients. Steroids 140-147 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 37-46 16988499-14 2006 CONCLUSIONS: The results of this pilot trial demonstrate that in patients with AIED, transtympanic delivery of the TNF-alpha blocker infliximab once weekly for 4 weeks allowed steroids to be tapered off, resulted in hearing improvement and reduced disease relapses. Steroids 176-184 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 115-124 16620022-7 2006 Molecular biological techniques have revealed, that many of the established conventional antiinflammatory drugs such as salicylic acids, steroids or immunuosuppressants act at the same molecules that are the target for modern biologicals, i.e., the cytokine TNF or the transcription factor NFkappaB. Steroids 137-145 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 258-261 16255837-10 2006 CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that cutaneous GR function is abnormal in antidepressant-resistant depression, that circulating TNF-alpha may play a significant role in this abnormality and that the efficacy of topical steroids in antidepressant-resistant depressives is reduced. Steroids 223-231 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 132-141 16479743-3 2005 Aim of our study is to test anti-TNF alpha treatment as a steroid sparing tool in PMR patients affected by DM or osteoporosis.

Steroids 75-82 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 148-175 15808446-2 2005 Topical steroid phobia is rampant in many countries, a real advantage for the entry on the market of topical immunomodulators (TIMs), which inhibit both antigen specific and non-specific T cell activation in the skin, by blockade of gene transcription of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL2 and TNF alpha. Steroids 8-15 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 297-306 15489577-2 2004 The antibody to tumor necrosis factor alpha, infliximab, has shown to be effective in the treatment of steroid-refractory ulcerative colitis in pilot studies. Steroids 103-110 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 16-43 16128605-8 2005 TNFalpha is known to be a contributing factor in kidney allograft rejection, and may have value in predicting the onset of steroid-resistant acute rejection after liver transplantation. Steroids 123-130 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-8 15231721-0 2004 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha suppresses the expression of steroid receptor coactivator-1 and -2: a possible mechanism contributing to changes in steroid hormone responsiveness. Steroids 144-159 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-27 15231721-4 2004 To assess TNF-alpha effects on steroid hormone-mediated transcriptional activity, UtSMC were transfected with progesterone receptor B (PR-B) and a model PRE2-luciferase reporter construct. Steroids 31-46 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 10-19 15231721-8 2004 In conclusion, TNF-alpha impairs progesterone-stimulated PR-B-mediated transactivation, and these effects appear to be due, in part, to reduced expression of SRC-1 and -2, which is a novel mechanism by which inflammation can functionally block steroid hormone action. Steroids 244-259 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 15-24 15638237-2 2004 Preliminary data suggest a benefit of anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (Infliximab) therapy in patients with steroid refractory UC.

Steroids 16-23 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 159-168 15306588-2 2004 Recently, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) antibodies were recognised as effective in steroid refractory CD. Steroids 94-101 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 40-49 15242697-3 2004 Steroids modulate some plasma cytokines (decreasing TNFalpha, IL-8, IL-6 and increasing IL-10), whereas ability to reduce plasma and urinary TNFsr-2 and IL-1ra and peri-operative renal injury is unknown. Steroids 0-8 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 52-60 15379214-5 2004 The anti-inflammatory steroid dexamethasone (DEX) inhibited mPGES-1 mRNA and protein expression as well as PGE2 production induced by IL-1beta or TNFalpha. Steroids 22-29 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 146-154 15208591-10 2004 However, cells from this subset of steroid-insensitive subjects were still capable of inhibiting TNF-alpha-induced histone acetylation. Steroids 35-42 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 97-106 14978174-15 2004 CONCLUSION: TNFalpha blockade with infliximab was effective at inducing remission in 88% of patients with antibody-associated systemic vasculitis and permitted reduction in steroid doses. Steroids 173-180 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 12-20 15485092-5 2004 Thus, available steroid prehormones are rapidly converted to proinflammatory estrogens in the synovial tissue in the presence of inflammatory cytokines (i.e., TNFalpha, IL-1, IL-6). Steroids 16-23 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 159-167 12794059-5 2003 We have demonstrated this in four types of cross-talk mechanisms on different cells in which steroids have major roles: (1) The tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-glucocorticoid receptor (GR) transcriptional interaction in cellular targets of TNF-induced cytotoxicity.

Steroids 126-134 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 62-71 10411704-7 1999 RESULTS: The recipient TNF-alpha high producer genotype and IL-10 high producer genotype were significantly associated with multiple REs (>/=2) in human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR mismatched transplants (P = 0.0047 and P = 0.045, respectively), whereas only the TNF-alpha high producer genotype was associated with steroid-resistant REs (P = 0.025). Steroids 318-325 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 23-32 9704146-6 1998 The clinical effectiveness of anti-TNF-alpha antibodies and of IL-10 has been demonstrated in steroid-refractory Crohn"s disease patients.

Steroids 86-93 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 0-3 8572786-13 1996 CONCLUSIONS: Earlier steroid administration in the immunosuppressive protocol for HTx or HLTx may be preferable to reduce the inflammatory response to cardiopulmonary bypass, as reflected by a lower production of tumor necrosis factor alpha and IL-8, and a greater release of IL-10. Steroids 21-28 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 213-240 8671447-11 1996 The effects of steroids on TNF-alpha production were less marked than that of IL-1, with values increasing or decreasing to a maximum of three times the basal value. Steroids 15-23 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 27-36 7529028-7 1995 The phospholipase A2 inhibitor primaquine (30 microM) had no effect on the inhibitory responses to TNF alpha, whereas the anti-inflammatory steroid dexamethasone (1 microM) prevented TNF alpha inhibition of mitogenic responses.

Steroids 4-11 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 93-96 1702707-9 1991 These results show that TNF-alpha suppresses the synthesis of cortisol and shifts the steroid secretory pattern towards androgen production at least partly by suppressing the accumulation of mRNAs for adrenal cytochrome P450 oxidases. Steroids 86-93 tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens 24-33 2242421-9 1990 They further suggest that the altered spectrum and reduced severity of IL-2 side effects observed in patients receiving dexamethasone may be attributable in part to the suppressive effect of steroids on IL-2-induced TNF synthesis.
