متن کاملXenotransplantation: immune barriers beyond hyperacute rejection
1. The use of organs from animal donors (xenotransplantation) is a potential solution to the chronic shortage of allogeneic organs and currently the pig is thought to be the most suitable donor for man. However, porcine organs are rejected rapidly by a vascular process called hyperacute rejection which has so far prevented clinical xenotransplantation. Although it is likely that this barrier wi...
متن کاملImmune Responses Following Mouse Peripheral Nerve Xenotransplantation in Rats
Xenotransplantation offers a potentially unlimited source for tissues and organs for transplantation, but the strong xenoimmune responses pose a major obstacle to its application in the clinic. In this study, we investigate the rejection of mouse peripheral nerve xenografts in rats. Severe intragraft mononuclear cell infiltration, graft distension, and necrosis were detected in the recipients a...
متن کاملCholinergic Receptor Sensitivity Following Pharmacological Modulation of the Immune System
Objective. To study the effect of immunomodulators on learning and memory and on cholinergic receptor sensitivity. Methods. Animals were initially treated for a period of 8 days with cyclosporine/levamisole/saline. They were then subjected to passive avoidance training and 48 hrs later, the retention test for the passive avoidance task was conducted. Twenty-four hours after the retention tests ...
متن کاملModulation of lung inflammation and immune markers in asthmatic rats treated by Portulaca oleracea
Objective: Previous studies indicated anti-inflammatory effects for Portulaca oleracea in various inflammatory disorders. In this study, the effects of P. oleracea on bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of total protein (TP), Phospholipase A2(PLA2) and IgE in sensitized rats were examined. Materials and Methods: Male rats were randomly divided into six groups namely, control (group C), s...
