How can you use “ibd” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
ECAMs support several forms of leukocyte adhesion including rolling, firm adhesion and extravasation [ 1 ] . Infiltration of tissues by leukocytes is a common hallmark of many chronic inflammatory states that include the inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), ulcerative colitis (UC), and Crohn's disease (CD).
MAdCAM-1 (mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1), IL-10 (Interleukin-10), HEV (high endothelial venular), ECAMs (endothelial cell adhesion molecules), IBD (inflammatory bowel diseases), UC (ulcerative colitis), CD (Crohn's disease), ICAM-1 (intracellular adhesion molecule 1), VCAM-1 (vascular adhesion molecule 1), NF-kB (nuclear transfection factor kB), TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor alpha), GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor), GCSF (granulocute colony stimulating factor), ECL (enhanced chemiluminescence)
MAdCAM-1 is expressed basally in these tissues and is dramatically increased in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
NO is an important modulator of adhesion molecule expression in both acute and chronic inflammatory states, and may influence the course of IBD.
We have described in vitro that exogenous IL-10 can block the expression of MAdCAM-1 in response to TNF-α, and attenuates lymphocyte adhesion to lymphatic node derived endothelium under cytokine stimulating conditions via NF-kB inhibition [ 5 ] . The purpose of the current study was to show that induction of endothelial expression of IL-10 through an IL-10 expression vector attenuates MAdCAM-1 expression in response to TNF-α and optimistically suggests the possibility of targeted Th2-cytokine gene therapy in IBD.
