Expression profile of cytokines and chemokines in a mouse high-altitude cerebral edema model

Abstract

This study showed that the dynamic expression profile of 30 cytokines and chemokines in a mouse HACE model induced by LPS plus hypobaric hypoxia. The levels of G-CSF, MCP-1, KC, MIG, Eotaxin, Rantes, IP10, IL-6, MIP-2, and MIP-1β in both serum and hippocampus were significantly increased at 6 h, which may be involved in the occurrence and development of HACE.
