Purified protein derivative induced cytotoxicity in carcinomatous and tuberculous pleurisy.
We have found that natural killer (NK) cells were very active in pleural effusions containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Cytotoxicity against K562 and Raji was augmented when the mononuclear cells were cocultured for 18 hr with purified protein derivative (PPD) derived from M. tuberculosis culture supernatants. In pleural effusions of cancer patients, PPD-activated mononuclear cells were less ...
متن کاملCell surface analysis of purified protein derivative-induced cytotoxic cells in tuberculous pleurisy.
High NK cell activity was observed in tuberculous pleural effusions from which mycobacterium tuberculosis was cultured. Further we observed that cytotoxicity against K562 was augmented by purified protein derivative (PPD). We have now performed the surface analysis of the cells in PPD-induced cytotoxicity using various monoclonal antibodies (mAb) (anti-Leu 1, anti-Leu 7, anti-Leu 11, anti-HLA-D...
متن کاملCytokine content in pleural effusion. Comparison between tuberculous and carcinomatous pleurisy.
Tuberculous pleurisy is a good model for resolution of local cellular immunity. It would be expected that tuberculous pleural fluid contains a variety of immunologically important cytokines because of the accumulation of immunocompetent cells in the pleural cavity. We studied interleukin 1 (IL-1), interleukin 2 (IL-2), and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) levels in pleural fluid of 20 patients with...
متن کاملPurified Protein Derivative--PPD.
A 55-year-old physician had a PPD made as part of a clinical evaluation. Laboratory tests were unremarkable and PPD, read in 48 hours, showed an area of induration of 18 mm and an erythema of 51 mm (Panel A). A 2 mm punch biopsy was done in the center of the induration 96 hours after the injection. Histopathology showed an intense perivascular cuffing with macrophages and lymphocytes and edema ...
متن کاملTuberculous Pleurisy: An Update
Tuberculous pleurisy is the most common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis in Korea. Tuberculous pleurisy presents a diagnostic and therapeutic problem due to the limitations of traditional diagnostic tools. There have been many clinical research works during the past decade. Recent studies have provided new insight into the tuberculous pleurisy, which have a large impact on clinical practice....
