An open, mono-centre study to investigate the effect of the local application of an anti-inflammatory agent on the concentration of different cytokines in interstitial fluid af subcutaneous adipose tissue using the open-flow microperfusion technique

Phase 1
Conditions
We want to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of local Solu-Dacortin application on the profile and the variation in time profile of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, TNF alpha, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10) in the interstitial fluid of subcutaneous adipose tissue in healthy volunteers. We use open-flow microperfusion to gain direct acces to interstitial fluid in adipose tissue in humans.
