"[In this study, we measured the mRNA levels of adrenomedullin (AM), C-type natriuretic peptide, vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of 34 patients with lupus nephritis (LN) (15 active and 19 inactive) and 30 healthy volunteers. mRNA levels were measured using a real-time quantitative PCR METHOD: Compared with healthy volunteers, IL-6 mRNA levels were elevated in LN patients (P < 0.005), while AM mRNA levels were decreased (P < 0.05).].
