Modulation of in vitro proliferation and cytokine secretion of human lymphocytes by Mentha longifolia extracts
Objective: Mentha longifolia L. Hudson has been used in folk medicine for various purposes especially for its anti-inflammatory effects. Lymphocytes play a central role in development of inflammation. In the present study, we investigated the immunomodulatory effects of different extracts of M. longifolia on human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), as main players in development of inflammati...
متن کاملImmunopotentiotor Effect of α-Tocopherol on Cytokine Expression in the Lymphocytes in the Elderly People
Background: Aging is associated with attenuation of immune responses. Studies show that old people are vulnerable to infectious diseases such as influenza. α-Tocopherol as an immunomodulator affects immune responses. In the present study, the effect of α-tocopherol, on lymphocyte responses i.e. interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α), and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in elde...
متن کاملCytokine gene expression by cultures of human lymphocytes with autologous Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected monocytes.
In order to better understand the immunoregulation following Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, cytokine mRNA induction in response to in vitro infection of human monocytes with live virulent M. tuberculosis H37Rv cocultured with autologous lymphocytes was quantitated by reverse transcriptase-PCR. Induced levels of interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta), IL-2, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and gamma ...
متن کاملCytokine production by peripheral lymphocytes in melanoma.
BACKGROUND The differentiation of T cells towards a T helper 1 (Th1) or Th2 phenotype based on their profile of cytokine production, is of great relevance in the regulation of immune responses. We have determined by flow cytometry, the expression of selected Th1 and Th2 cytokines by activated T cells in whole blood samples (WB) from normal donors and from patients with different clinical stages...
متن کاملInhibition of cytokine gene transcription by the human recombinant histamine-releasing factor in human T lymphocytes.
Human recombinant histamine-releasing factor (HrHRF) preincubation enhances the secretion of histamine, IL-4, and IL-13 from FcepsilonRI-stimulated human basophils. In GM-CSF-primed human eosinophils, HrHRF increases IL-8 production. Our recent experiments were designed to evaluate the effects of HrHRF on human T cell cytokine production. Purified T cells were preincubated with GST-tagged HrHRF...
