Plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha during hemodialysis

PubMedID: 2046832Tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) levels were measured by immunoradiometric assay in chronically hemodialyzed patients consisting of 9 males and 3 females aged between 14 and 60 years. TNF-? levels were 5.47-l5.1 pg/ml (mean 9.76 ± 6.63) before hemodialysis (HD), and 5.75-58.55 pg/ml (mean 22.15 ± 15.14) after HD. According to these results TNF-? levels in chronically hemodialyzed patients were within normal limits, but after 4 h of HD, higher levels of TNF-? were found
