Abstract

 

The main organism defence against pathogens is immune system, but unfortunately its activity is always associated with unwanted inflammation. It would be beneficial, if it is possible to understand immune activation and inflammation, as well as to identify parameters that can distinguish between immune activation and inflammation. For that purpose, we have used our own nonconventional, biophysical, theoretical Resonant Recognition Model, which we applied to Interleukin-12 (IL-12) and Interleukin-23 (IL-23) pathways. We have identified the separate parameters for those two pathways, and we assigned them separately to immune activation and inflammation biological functions. These results could be used in diminishing effects of unwanted inflammation in number of health conditions.

Sažetak

 

Imunitet je glavna odbrana organizma protiv patogena, ali je nazalost uvek povezan sa nezeljenom inflamacijom. Bilo bi znacajno da se razume proces aktiviranja imunog sistema i proces inflamacije sa idejom da se odrede parametri koji mogu da naprave razliku izmedju ta dva procesa. U tom smislu smo upotrebili nas nekonvencionalni, biofizicki, teoretski Model Rezonantnog Prepoznavanja, koji smo  primenili na Interleukin-12 (IL-12) i Interleukin-23 (IL-23) bioloske signale. Odredili smo posebne parametre za ta dva bioloska signala i odvojeno smo ih pripisali procesu aktiviranja imunog sistema i procesu inflamacije. Nasi rezultati mogu da se upotrebe za smanjenje uticaja nezeljene inflamacije u velikom broju zdravstvenih problema..
