The secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells was suppressed by either whole human plasma alpha-globulins or purified alpha 1-acid-glycoprotein, alpha 1-antitrypsin and alpha 2-macroglobulin in a concentration-dependent manner. alpha 1-Antitrypsin was found
Rabbit TNF has been purified 2000-fold by a series of salt precipitations, gel filtrations, ion exchange chromatography, and lectin affinity chromatography to a single species on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). TNF activity could be recovered from nondenaturing gel systems and has
We reported that administration of anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNF-alpha) antibodies exacerbates the course of a Salmonella infection in both susceptible and resistant mice by preventing the suppression of bacterial growth in the reticuloendothelial system. In the present study, we
Tumor necrosis can be induced in transplanted mouse methylcholanthrene-induced sarcoma by a tumor necrosis factor in the serum of mice infected with bacillus Calmette-Guérin and given bacterial endotoxin. Sera from normal mice, endotoxin-treated mice, and mice infected with bacillus Calmette-Guérin
Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AT) is one of several alpha-globulins which have been shown to be inhibitors of human peripheral blood monocyte TNF secretion in vitro. AT deficiency states exist, within which individuals of either the PiSS or PiZZ phenotype have reduced hepatocyte and mononuclear phagocyte AT
OBJECTIVE
To bring forward a suggestion about clinical diagnostic standard and clinical typing for chronic and severe hepatitis.
METHODS
To make a comprehensive study on clinical features and pathology of 895 cases of severe and chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis after hepatitis based on the viral
In order to look into the ageing of the canine immune system we investigated age-related changes and associated gender-related differences in parameters of innate and acquired immunity in German Shepherd dogs. We obtained the following findings: white blood cell counts, peripheral blood lymphocytes,
Injury of vascular endothelial cell is one of the main factors triggering atherosclerosis. Peptide AAGALPS was derived from digestion and absorption product of rice α-globulin, which was proved to prevent atherosclerosis in previous study. This study aims to investigate the potential effects of
A 12-year-old Shetland pony was referred because of weight loss over several months and symptoms of colic. On rectal examination, enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes and an abnormal mass in the left anterior abdominal cavity were palpated. Haematological evaluation revealed leucocytosis (13 G.l-1) and
Capillaria hepatica is an extremely common parasite of rats. Several human cases have also been reported from various parts of the world and recently these aroused the clinical interests. The present study was undertaken to investigate the biological observations of C. hepatica and the changes
The addition of copper and zinc salts to human peripheral blood leukocytes cultured in complete medium containing endotoxin and fetal calf serum stimulated tumor necrosis factor (TNF) secretion in a concentration-dependent manner. The secretion of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and interleukin-6
To gain insight into the factors regulating an inflammatory response in vivo, the activities of peritoneal macrophages and the influence of the inflammatory fluids from which they were harvested were studied in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients with peritonitis. Specifically,
The aim of this study was to evaluate the serum biochemistry profile, inflammatory cytokines, adipokines and cardiovascular findings in obese dogs. Twenty obese and 20 normal weight healthy pet dogs were recruited into the study, where they underwent blood testing and assessment of cardiovascular
