SOLUBLE INTERCELLULAR-ADHESION MOLECULE-1 AND E-SELECTIN LEVELS IN PLASMA OF FALCIPARUM-MALARIA PATIENTS AND THEIR LACK OF CORRELATION WITHLEVELS OF TUMOR-NECROSIS-FACTOR-ALPHA, INTERLEUKIN-1-ALPHA (IL-1-ALPHA), AND IL-10
F. Peyron et al., SOLUBLE INTERCELLULAR-ADHESION MOLECULE-1 AND E-SELECTIN LEVELS IN PLASMA OF FALCIPARUM-MALARIA PATIENTS AND THEIR LACK OF CORRELATION WITHLEVELS OF TUMOR-NECROSIS-FACTOR-ALPHA, INTERLEUKIN-1-ALPHA (IL-1-ALPHA), AND IL-10, Clinical and diagnostic laboratory immunology, 1(6), 1994, pp. 741-743
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and E-selectin levels were increased
in the plasma of 60 falciparum malaria patients and were not related
to levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interleukin 10, or interleuk
in 1 alpha. Soluble E-selectin was correlated to disease; its level in
plasma was related to levels of both tumor necrosis factor soluble re
ceptors and biological markers of disease severity and returned to bas
eline after parasite clearance faster than that of soluble intercellul
ar adhesion molecule-1.
