Abstract

Neurocysticercosis (NCC) is caused by the larva of Taenia solium, when it is lodged in the central nervous system (CNS). NCC is identified as the major cause of community acquired epilepsy, especially in the developing countries. It is also increasingly being reported in the developed world due to human migration from the disease endemic countries. However, some individuals with similar NCC lesions may remain asymptomatic and the reason for this asymptomatic status largely remains unknown. However, studies from our center suggest that cytokines play important role in disease pathogenesis. In the present review, we have discussed the role of different cytokines in the pathogenesis of NCC in human.
神经囊虫病的免疫发病机制:细胞因子的作用
神经囊虫病(NCC)是由猪带绦虫(Taenia solium)的幼虫寄居在中枢神经系统(CNS)时引起的。非传染性疾病被确定为社区获得性癫痫的主要原因,特别是在发展中国家。由于人类从疾病流行国家移徙,发达国家也越来越多地报告了该病。然而,一些具有类似NCC病变的个体可能仍然无症状,这种无症状状态的原因在很大程度上尚不清楚。然而,我们中心的研究表明细胞因子在疾病的发病机制中起着重要的作用。现就不同细胞因子在人NCC发病机制中的作用进行综述。
