High impact information on IFI6

The frequency of p,p'-DDE detection for the various products investigated varied between 78 and 100% of the 129 samples analysed, although mean levels were very low, in the range within 6-16 micrograms/kg [1].
The data show that endothelial cells respond more rapidly to rIL-1 beta (2-6 hr) and rTNF-alpha (30 min) than do chondrocytes and synovial cells (6-16 hrs), suggesting endothelial cells may play a primary role in initiating the inflammatory response [2].
Highest ability of endometrium for PGF2 alpha metabolism (indicated by the ratio PGF2 alpha:PGFM) was on days 6-16 of the cycle [3].
