Interferon gamma: activity and ELISA detection comparisons.
Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a pleiotropic cytokine secreted by Natural Killer (NK) cells and many T cells. It is the sole representative of Type II IFN. IFN-γ has pleiotropic activities including: inducing an antiviral state in cells, upregulating cell surface markers such as Class I and II MHC, and regulating the activity of macrophages, NK cells, neutrophils, B-cells, and T-cells. As such, IF...
متن کاملSynergistic activity of azithromycin and gamma interferon in murine toxoplasmosis.
A dose of 75 mg of azithromycin per kg of body weight per day combined with a dose of 2 micrograms of gamma interferon per day and administered for 10 days protected at least 40% of mice infected with a lethal inoculum of Toxoplasma gondii. Azithromycin administered alone protected less than 10% of the mice; gamma interferon had no protective effect.
متن کاملRegulation of macrophage growth and antiviral activity by interferon- gamma
Interferons, in addition to their antiviral activity, induce a multiplicity of effects on different cell types. Interferon (IFN)-gamma exerts a unique regulatory effect on cells of the mononuclear phagocyte lineage. To investigate whether the antiviral and antiproliferative effects of IFN-gamma in macrophages can be genetically dissociated, and whether IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma use the same cellu...
متن کاملInducible Expression of Human Gamma Interferon
Background:The premature termination of high producer clones, which will be killed due to cell proliferation and proteins production antagonism, is one of the basic drawback in recombinant proteins technology. Furtheremore, it is supposed some toxic proteins like interferon which we intended to clone and express, inhibit host cells’ proliferation. So, it is necessary to tightly control IFN-γ pr...
متن کاملComparisons of ELISA and Western blot assays for detection of autophagy flux
We analyzed autophagy/mitophagy flux in vitro (C2C12 myotubes) and in vivo (mouse skeletal muscle) following the treatments of autophagy inducers (starvation, rapamycin) and a mitophagy inducer (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, CCCP) using two immunodetection methods, ELISA and Western blotting, and compared their working range, accuracy, and reliability. The ELISAs showed a broader wo...
