pubmed:abstractText |
Patients with Kawasaki disease mount an immune response directed to their abnormally stimulated vascular endothelium, that is associated with vascular inflammation and injury and a predisposition to arterial aneurysm formation. This suggests that specific pro-inflammatory cytokines may mediate these hyperreactive responses. The selective chemoattractant and activation effects of chemokines on lymphocytes identifies them as potential candidates in mediating selective inflammatory processes in Kawasaki disease. We examined peripheral blood from patients with Kawasaki disease for chemokine gene expression.
