Plasma TNF binding capacity in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and TNF-beta, also called lymphotoxin (LT), are bound by soluble truncated TNF receptors (sTNFRI and II) that are released from cell surfaces and act as natural inhibitors of TNF-induced inflammation. We investigated the plasma levels of sTNFRI and II in parallel with LT binding capacity (LTBC) in 44 patients with juvenile chronic arthritis (JIA).
