Evaluation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), Interleukins (IL-6, IL-8) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in neonatal calves with presumed septicemia
Abstract
In this study; intercellular molecule-1 (ICAM-1), Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were evaluated in neonatal calves with presumed septicemia. The material of this study consisted of a total of 30 calves. Study group consisted of 20 septicemic calves and 10 clinically healthy calves and with same breed and weight and their ages were between 1 and 10 days. The statistical analysis indicated that leukocyte (WBC), red blood cell (RBC), hematocrit (Hct) hemoglobin (Hb) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) values in neonatal calves with presumed septicemia were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05), whereas PLT values of neonatal calves with septicemia were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). The levels of ICAM-1, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and CRP values in septicemic calves were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). As a result, it was concluded that analyzes of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-8 and particularly ICAM-1 concentrations may be considered in evaluating the severity and prognosis of patients with septicemia, as well as monitoring the efficacy of the treatment of the disease.
