T cells and protective immunity to Plasmodium berghei in rats.
Experiments were carried out in which unfractionated spleen cells, and T lymphocyte subpopulations characterized by certain experimental criteria, were isolated at various times from rats infected with Plasmodium berghei. By adoptive transfer it was shown that unfractionated spleen cells, and T cells alone, could transfer protection to syngenic recipients as early as 11 days after infection of ...
متن کاملAmerican tegumentary leishmaniasis: correlations among immunological, histopathological and clinical parameters*
BACKGROUND American tegumentary leishmaniasis has an annual incidence of 1 to 1.5 million cases. In some cases, the patient's immune response can eliminate the parasite, and the lesion spontaneously resolves. However, when this does not occur, patients develop the disseminated form of the disease. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between clinical, laboratory and pathological findings ...
متن کاملEffect of Heat-killed Saccharomyces cerevisiae on Growth Rate and Apoptosis in Colorectal Cancer Cells
Background and purpose: Colorectal cancer ( CRC ) is highly prevalent and conventional therapies are associated with side effects, therefore, application of novel complementary treatment such as probiotics (especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is necessary. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of heat-killed form of S.cerevisiae on growing rate and apoptosis (expression levels of...
متن کاملInduction of Protective Immunity to Cryptococcal Infection in Mice by a Heat-Killed, Chitosan-Deficient Strain of Cryptococcus neoformans
UNLABELLED Cryptococcus neoformans is a major opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes fatal meningoencephalitis in immunocompromised individuals and is responsible for a large proportion of AIDS-related deaths. The fungal cell wall is an essential organelle which undergoes constant modification during various stages of growth and is critical for fungal pathogenesis. One critical component of ...
متن کاملEffect of acute heat stress on certain immunological parameters in albino rats.
The effect of acute heat stress on certain immunological parameters were studied in male albino rats. The test rats were exposed to an ambient temperature of 40 degrees celsius for 30 minutes and sacrificed immediately. Total WBC count, Differential count, Phagocytic index, NBT reduction, organ weight body weight ratio of spleen, thymus, and popliteal lymph nodes, and soluble immune complex lev...
