Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Lastly, BPC 157 counteracts tumor cachexia, muscle wasting, and increases in pro-inflammatory/procachectic cytokines, such as interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α, and significantly corrects deranged muscle proliferation and myogenesis through changes in the expression of FoxO3a, p-AKT, p-mTOR, and P-GSK-3β (mitigating cancer cachexia). 31158953 2020
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Among potential molecular alterations related to cancer cachexia, there are single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within genes encoding pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α. 29802455 2018
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, have been correlated with CC; however, its prognostic significance remains unclear. 30513776 2018
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Chronic inflammation, mediated by cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), has been reported to promote cancer cachexia. 29338749 2018
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE TNF-α and cancer cachexia: Molecular insights and clinical implications. 27919820 2017
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The possible mechanisms were studied both in a colon 26-induced cancer cachexia mouse model and in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induced atrophy C2C12 cells. 25760630 2015
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We studied gene, protein expression and activity of the main enzymes involved in CL metabolism in liver mitochondria from a rat model of cancer cachexia and in HepaRG hepatocyte-like cells exposed to 20 ng/ml of TNFα for 12 h. Phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase (PGPS) gene expression was increased 2.3-fold (p<0.02) and cardiolipin synthase (CLS) activity decreased 44% (p<0.03) in cachectic rat livers compared to controls. 26327596 2015
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Several biochemical pathways can lead to cancer cachexia, one of which involves the elevation of the cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interferon gamma (INF-gamma). 19152246 2009
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Two of these five patients with normal TNF levels each had a weight gain of more than 5% after 3 weeks of pentoxifylline therapy suggesting that, although TNF may be important in the pathogenesis of cancer cachexia, other anorexia-producing cytokines that are potentially affected by pentoxifylline may also be involved. 7678547 1993
CUI: C1391732
Disease: Cancer cachexia
Cancer cachexia
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In the cytokine cascade, a central position is occupied by that molecule known as "cachectin" or "tumor necrosis factor," because this molecule, more than any other, has been shown to mediate the biologic effects of LPS, and to provoke a state of wasting very similar to that observed in cancer cachexia. 2650822 1989
