Discrimination of human cytotoxic lymphocytes from regulatory and B-lymphocytes by orthogonal light scattering.
Light scattering properties of human lymphocyte subpopulations selected by immunofluorescence were studied with a flow cytometer. Regulatory and B-lymphocytes showed a low orthogonal light scatter signal, whereas cytotoxic lymphocytes identified with leu-7, leu-11 and leu-15 revealed a large orthogonal light scatter signal. Two populations in light scatter histograms could be observed with mono...
متن کاملSocial interaction improves experimental stroke outcome.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Social interaction can have a profound effect on health. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether affiliative social interactions before and after stroke improve ischemic outcomes as assessed through histological analysis and behavioral assays. METHODS Male and female C57BL/6 mice were housed individually or with an ovariectomized female. Behavioral ass...
متن کاملFunctional role of regulatory lymphocytes in stroke: facts and controversies.
T he secondary neuroinflammatory response has attracted increasing attention in experimental stroke research. 1 Analyses of immunologic mechanisms after acute stroke have been performed in the hope of identifying key pathomecha-nisms that contribute to secondary infarct growth and can be modulated to benefit a large proportion of patients with stroke. Among a variety of pathophysiologic mechani...
متن کاملLeptospirosis: a Toll road from B lymphocytes.
Leptospirosis is a widespread zoonosis caused by Leptospira interrogans, a pathogen transmitted by asymptomatic infected rodents. Leptospiral lipoproteins and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have been shown to stimulate murine cells via Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 2 and 4. Host defense mechanisms remain obscure, although TLR4 has been associated with clearing Leptospira. In a recent study, we showed th...
متن کاملRegulatory B cells limit CNS inflammation and neurologic deficits in murine experimental stroke.
Evaluation of infarct volumes and infiltrating immune cell populations in mice after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) strongly implicates a mixture of both pathogenic and regulatory immune cell subsets in stroke pathogenesis and recovery. Our goal was to evaluate the contribution of B cells to the development of MCAO by comparing infarct volumes and functional outcomes in wild-type (WT) ...
