Cellular immune response and pathology in schistosomiasis.
In the present review, some aspects of the cellular response following the murine Schistosoma mansoni infection are described. Due to the peculiar route used by the schistosome to infect its definitive host, the skin appears as a critical site in which the initial events of the host/parasite relationship occur and where the immune response is initiated. Moreover, the induction and the modulatio...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cellular Immune Response against Purified Antigen 85 in Patients with Tuberculosis
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains an important health problem throughout the world. Despite its significance in public health, mechanisms of protective immunity against Mycobacyerium Tuberculosis in humans have not yet been understood. Objective: To evaluate cell mediated immune response against purified Ag 85, PPD and Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in patients with tuberculosis and healthy tuber...
متن کاملEffect of Diet Containing Inclusion of Phenolic Monoterpenes Carvacrol, Menthol and Thymol on Cellular and Humoral Immune Response in Broilers
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of diet containing inclusion of carvacrol, menthol and thymol at 400, 200 and 200 mg/kg, respectively, on performance, cell-mediated and humoral immune response using 96 broiler chicks in a completely randomized block design in 12 replicates of 2 birds each. Feed intake reduced in birds received diet containing menthol during days 14 to 42 o...
متن کاملCellular Events in the Immune Response
Cell suspensions from the spleens of normal mice or mice injected with sheep erythrocytes were separated on a discontinous bovine serum albumin density gradient. Four bands or subpopulations were obtained and were assayed for antibody-forming cells, and for antigen-sensitive precursor cells. The antibody-forming cells were assayed by the hemolytic plaque assay and the antigen-sensitive precurso...
متن کاملNew insights in vitiligo: cellular immune response
Background Vitiligo is a skin disorder that affects 1% to 2% of the world population, independently of ethnicity. It presents with white plaques and skin discoloration. The presence of antibodies against melanocytes confirms the autoimmune phenomena in this disease. Regarding cellular imune response in active vitiligo, it seems to be an imbalance between T cell CD8+ and CD4+, and, moreover, an ...
