IgG antibody responses in early experimental sparganosis and IgG subclass responses in human sparganosis.
Antigenic components in the crude extracts of Spirometra mansoni plerocercoid were analyzed in early experimental infections and in IgG subclass observed in clinical sparganosis. By IgG immunoblot, sera obtained serially from experimental mice, fed 5 spargana each, were reacted with the crude extracts. Protein bands at 36-26 kDa and 103 kDa showed positive reactions since two weeks after infect...
متن کاملBinaural unmasking of frequency-following responses in rat amygdala.
Survival in natural environments for small animals such as rats often depends on precise neural coding of life-threatening acoustic signals, and binaural unmasking of species-specific pain calls is especially critical. This study investigated how species-specific tail-pain chatter is represented in the rat amygdala, which receives afferents from both auditory thalamus and auditory association c...
متن کاملDevelopment of IgG responses to mycobacterial antigens.
Recent studies link mycobacterial and human heat shock protein antigens with autoimmune diseases. Little is known about the development of antibody responses to these antigens in children. IgG responses to mycobacterial antigens were studied in children living in the UK (an environment low in mycobacteria) who had not received BCG vaccination. Age curves of IgG response to sonicates from differ...
متن کاملEpitope-Specific Suppression of IgG Responses by Passively Administered Specific IgG: Evidence of Epitope Masking
Specific IgG, passively administered together with particulate antigen, can completely prevent induction of antibody responses to this antigen. The ability of IgG to suppress antibody responses to sheep red blood cells (SRBCs) is intact in mice lacking FcγRs, complement factor 1q, C3, or complement receptors 1 and 2, suggesting that Fc-dependent effector functions are not involved. Two of the m...
متن کاملUnmasking hypertension.
Conventional blood pressure measurement using a mercury sphygmomanometer and stethoscope has clearly shown a strong relationship between blood pressure and cardiovascular risk,1 and the technique has also demonstrated the benefit of lowering high blood pressure with antihypertensive medication.2 However, despite these merits, conventional measurement has been criticized on many counts that have...
