It measured levels of immune factors tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT1), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), glucose (Glu), lactic acid (LD), interleukin 10 (IL-10), and selenoprotein 1 (SEP1) using ELISA, as well as to confirm dysregulation of lipid metabolism in hyperuricemia. Here, TNF is linked to hyperuricemia.
