T1 Production of Immunoregulatory Cytokines at Autoimmune Damage of Mammalian Ovaries JF International Journal of Physiology and Pathophysiology JO IJPP YR 2010 FD 2010-11-23 VO 1 IS 3 SP 227 OP 234 K1 interferon K1 tumor necrosis factor-alpha K1 immune damage of ovaries AB Several ovarian disorders in women are associated with autoimmune factors. In this study it was investigated a level of cytokines − TNF-α and IFNs in ovarian homogenate and blood serum at ovarian autoimmune damage of mammals. Experimental immune ovarian failure was induced in CBA mice by either immunization with allogenic ovarian extracts or administration of xenogenic anti-ovarian antibodies. Both models were accompanied with abnormalities in production immunoregulatory cytokines. These data confirm importance of definition of proinflammatory cytokine level for disclosing immune mechanisms which lay in a pathogenesis autoimmune ovarian diseases of female reproductive organs.
