ALTERATION OF T-LYMPHOCYTE SUBPOPULATIONS IN SUBACUTE AND CHRONIC BRUCELLOSIS
Human brucellosis is a major health problem in developing countries. A number of patients with human brucellosis do not recover from the acute stage of the disease and pass into the chronic form. Since the pathophysiology of this change is not well understood, we studied the T-cell subsets during the acute, subacute and chronic forms of human brucellosis. In this study we found alterations...
متن کاملCarotenoids located in human lymphocyte subpopulations and natural killer cells by Raman microspectroscopy.
The presence and subcellular location of carotenoids in human lymphocyte subpopulations (CD4+, CD8+, T-cell receptor-gamma delta+, and CD19+) and natural killer cells (CD16+) were studied by means of Raman microspectroscopy. In CD4+ lymphocytes a high concentration (approximately 10(-3) M) of carotenoids was found in the Gall body. In CD8+ lymphocytes, T-cell-receptor-gamma delta+ lymphocytes a...
متن کاملIncreased Natural Killer Cells Activity in Schizophrenic Patients
Background: Schizophrenia has been associated with altered immunity. Different studies regarding natural killer cell activity (NKA) in schizophrenic patients have shown inconsistent results. Objectives: To evaluate NK cell activity in schizophrenic patients in comparison with healthy control individuals. Methods: 30 medication-free schizophrenic patients and 41 healthy sex, age and smoking st...
متن کاملLymphocyte subsets and natural killer cell activity in healthy old people and centenarians.
The contribution of the immune system to healthy aging and longevity is still an open question. For this reason, several immune parameters (T, B, and natural killer [NK] cell subsets; non-major histocompatibility complex [MHC]-restricted cytotoxic activities, ie, natural and redirected killing [RDK] activities) were studied in a total of 138 healthy subjects of different ages, from 4 to 106 yea...
متن کاملN-acetylcysteine does not affect the lymphocyte proliferation and natural killer cell activity responses to exercise.
This study evaluated whether N-acetylcysteine (NAC) attenuates the reduced lymphocyte proliferation and natural killer (NK) cell activity responses to exercise in humans. Fourteen oarsmen were double-blind randomized to either NAC (6 g daily for 3 days) or placebo groups. During 6-min "all-out" ergometer rowing, the concentration of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood increased, with no signifi...
