Evaluation of bronchoalveolar cells in pulmonary paracoccidioidomycosis.
To investigate the local immune response, the cellular infiltrate and cytokine levels were analysed in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from patients with pulmonary paracoccidioidomycosis. The group consisted of 19 patients aged 34-65 yrs. The diagnosis was confirmed by demonstration of the fungus in the sputum or BAL fluid and by serological tests. Cytospin preparations showed an increased number ...
متن کاملRadiological Findings in Active Pulmonary TB
ABSTRACT Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB), usually is a chronic disease that caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. Identification of the cases of TB is the key to control of it and radiology still plays a major role in both active and passive TB diagnosis. To assess the radiological patterns of presentation of active postprimary pulmonary TB, in this review and retrospective analysis, we studied C...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem/Stromal-Like Cells from Diploid and Triploid Human Embryonic Stem Cells Display Different Gene Expression Profiles
Background: Human ESCs-MSCs open a new insight into future cell therapy applications, due to their unique characteristics, including immunomodulatory features, proliferation, and differentiation. Methods: Herein, hESCs-MSCs were characterized by IF technique with CD105 and FIBRONECTIN as markers and FIBRONECTIN, VIMENTIN, CD10, CD105, and CD14 genes using RT-PCR technique. FACS was performed fo...
متن کاملGene expression profiles distinguish idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis from hypersensitivity pneumonitis.
RATIONALE Many of the interstitial lung diseases represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge because their clinical and even histologic features are often nonspecific. Likewise, the transcriptional signatures of most of them are unknown. OBJECTIVE To compare the gene expression patterns from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), and nonspeci...
متن کاملProfiles of MMP-2 Expression in Jurkat, Molt-4 and U937 Cells
Background: Leukemia is a malignant proliferative disorder of the hematopoietic cells. The important role of angiogenesis in leukemia has been reported by several studies. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a large group of endopeptidases which degredate the extracellular matrix and play an important role in angiogenesis. Objective: The present study was conducted to evaluate the patterns of ...
