Abstract
Introduction and Objectives: Chronic liver diseases are characterized by persistent inflammation related to high production of cytokines such as IL-12 and chemokine CXCL-10/IP-10 that attract activated Th1 lymphocytes that increase the production of IFN-g and TNF-a, perpetuating the inflammatory cascade. This study aimed to compare serum levels of IL-12 and CXCL-10 in different etiologies of liver disease. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional and multicenter study was carried out, including subjects with alcoholism according to criteria WHO, without (OH) and with liver injury (cirrhosis, CiOH) and (Alcoholic Hepatitis, HA); non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) and chronic Hepatitis C (CHC), diagnosed by clinical, biochemical data. They were compared with control subjects (CT). For determination of IL-12 and CXCL-10 with Multiplex®-MERCK©. Statistical analysis by SPSS V.22 using U de Mann Whitney, p
