Vasoactive intestinal peptide degradation might influence Interleukin-17 expres...
Pereira, Francielle Beltrão; Dutra, Walderez O.; Gollob, Kenneth J.; Reis, Edna Afonso; Oliveira, Ana Laura Grossi de; Rocha, Manoel Otávio da CostaThe vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) expression is lower in cardiac chagasic patients and is related to worse cardiac function. The reduction of VIP in patients with Chagas disease may be a result of its enhanced degradation. To test this hypothesis, the tryptase and chymase expression was evaluated. We also related VIP levels with interleukin-17 (IL17) expression since VIP may modulate IL-17 production. Pla...
