[-Cytokine level in malignant ascites and peripheral blood of patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma-]
Abstract
The concentrations of various cytokines were examined by ELISA in blood and in ascites from 14 patients with advanced ovarian cancer (stage IV). The control group consisted of 6 patients with benign gynaecological disorders. Compared with patients with benign gynaecological disorders, ascites and/or plasma of patients with ovarian cancer showed significantly higher levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-alpha, and sIL-2R. There were no increases of IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-2, IFN-gamma, and sCD14 levels. The possible pathogenetic significance of cytokines in ovarian cancer is discussed.
