Proinflammatory cytokines are related to the pathogenesis of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli infection and hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). We employed an antibody array that simultaneously detects 174 serum cytokines. We identified five serum biomarkers, namely insulin growth factor-binding protein-2, angiopoietin-2, soluble interleukin-6 receptor, soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor type II, and matrix metalloprotease protein-3 whose levels increased with the development of HUS. Furthermore, the levels of these cytokines were significantly increased in severe HUS compared with mild HUS. These cytokines might play an important role in the pathogenesis of HUS and may also be used to predict the severity of HUS.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine
