Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 51
Abstract
Inflammation reactions are the central component of liver regeneration after injury of various etiologies. The realization of these reactions involves a large number of pro-inflammatory cytokines: interferons, interleukins, tumor necrosis factors, transforming growth factors, colony stimulating factors, and chemokines. Thus, the study of different ways to influence the specific mediators of inflammation and inflammatory process in general today is a promising direction in developing strategies for the management of patients with inflammatory diseases of the liver. There remains topical the question of the appropriateness of application in this category of patients of various kinds of pathogenetic therapy agents, traditionally called hepatoprotectors. This article deals with a detailed analysis of the mechanisms of chronic inflammation in hepatitis of various etiologies, some aspects of the diagnosis of above diseases and studying the efficacy of pathogenic anti-inflammatory therapy with the definition of its place in the treatment of such pathology.
