Gene context of Pyelonephritis

  • Urinary levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) higher than those of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) during acute pyelonephritis have previously been associated with a higher degree of acute inflammation and of postinfective renal scarring [20].
  • In contrast, TLR4 is not expressed on human proximal tubule cells isolated from the renal cortex, which may explain the cortical localization of bacteria in pyelonephritis [23].
  • PURPOSE: We compared serum amyloid A (SAA) protein, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha as inflammatory markers for pyelonephritis and cystitis [24].
  • The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of IL-6 on mortality, bacterial growth and cytokine expression in experimental acute pyelonephritis [25].
  • We therefore conclude that IL-6 plays an important role in bacterial clearance and directly influences the TGF-beta levels in experimental acute pyelonephritis [25].
