Abstract
ABSTRACT Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a member of the IL-1 family, is critically involved in the modulation of the activity of a diverse range of immunocompetent cells. Essential roles have been implicated in cardioprotection, in both innate and adaptive immune responses in mucosal organs, and in the maintenance of adipose tissue cells. Over the past 10 years, several studies evaluated the usability of IL-33 as a biomarker in diseases of inflammatory and noninflammatory origin. Our group is currently evaluating the predictive role of serum IL-33 in acute kidney injury (AKI). The aim of the article is to discuss selected studies on IL-33 in different diseases and its potential role as a biomarker molecule.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Circulating Biomarkers is an international, peer-reviewed, open access scientific journal focusing on all aspects of the rapidly growing field of circulating blood-based biomarkers and diagnostics using circulating protein and lipid markers, circulating tumor cells (CTC), circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and extracellular vesicles, including exosomes, microvesicles, microparticles, ectosomes and apoptotic bodies. The journal publishes high-impact articles that deal with all fields related to circulating biomarkers and diagnostics, ranging from basic science to translational and clinical applications. Papers from a wide variety of disciplines are welcome; interdisciplinary studies are especially suitable for this journal. Included within the scope are a broad array of specialties including (but not limited to) cancer, immunology, neurology, metabolic diseases, cardiovascular medicine, regenerative medicine, nosology, physiology, pathology, technological applications in diagnostics, therapeutics, vaccine, drug delivery, regenerative medicine, drug development and clinical trials. The journal also hosts reviews, perspectives and news on specific topics.
