Cytokines and chemokines at the crossroads of neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and neuropathic pain.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Rodent models suggest that follistatin-like 3 (fstl3) is associated with diabetes and obesity. In humans, plasma fstl3 is reduced with gestational diabetes. In vitro, TNF-α induces fstl3 secretion, which suggests a link to inflammation. OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the association between plasma fstl3 and obesity...
