diclofenac and Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary

diclofenac has been researched along with Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary in 2 studies

Diclofenac: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) with antipyretic and analgesic actions. It is primarily available as the sodium salt.
diclofenac : A monocarboxylic acid consisting of phenylacetic acid having a (2,6-dichlorophenyl)amino group at the 2-position.

Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary: Sarcoidosis affecting predominantly the lungs, the site most frequently involved and most commonly causing morbidity and mortality in sarcoidosis. Pulmonary sarcoidosis is characterized by sharply circumscribed granulomas in the alveolar, bronchial, and vascular walls, composed of tightly packed cells derived from the mononuclear phagocyte system. The clinical symptoms when present are dyspnea upon exertion, nonproductive cough, and wheezing. (Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p431)

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Indomethacin (IM) enhanced TNF production in all the eight TCC that were established from a patient with human T lymphotrophic virus type 1 uveitis or pulmonary sarcoidosis, and suppressed IL-6 production in six of the eight TCC, without affecting their low levels of PGE2 production."3.69Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs differentially regulate cytokine production in human lymphocytes: up-regulation of TNF, IFN-gamma and IL-2, in contrast to down-regulation of IL-6 production.
