چکیده
Methods Patients of cockroach allergy and healthy controls were selected following American Thoracic Society guidelines. DCs were differentiated from peripheral blood monocytes of patient and control subjects and stimulated with Per a 10. Cells were evaluated for surface markers by flow cytometry and cytokines detected in culture supernatants by ELISA. Autologous DC-T cell cocultures were done and cytokine levels analyzed in the supernatants.

Bone marrow dendritic cells deficient for CD40 and IL-23p19 are tolerogenic in vitro
Objective(s): In addition to pro-inflammatory role, dendritic cells (DCs) can also be anti-inflammatory when they acquire tolerogenic phenotype. In this study we tested the role of CD40 and IL-23p19 in antigen presenting function of bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) by comparing BMDCs derived from CD40 knockout (CD40KO-DCs) and IL-23p19 (IL-23p19KO-DCs) knockout mice wit...
متن کاملCD40 Knocked Down Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells Decrease Diabetic Injury
Background: Type-1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which T lymphocytes destroy insulin-producing β-cells. Control of self-reactive T lymphocytes and recovery of diabetic injury is the end point of T1D. Objective: To investigate generation of tolerogenic dendritic cells (tolDCs) as an innovative method of diabetes therapy. Methods: Lentivirus vector production was achieved by GIPZ mou...

Background: T helper 1 and T helper 17 cells play important roles in immunity against foreign invaders. Differentiation of these Th subsets is affected by state of maturation and cytokines that are produced by dendritic cells (DCs). Curdlan is a linear (1→3)-β- glucan and has shown activity against tumors and infectious agents. Objective: This study aims to investigate whether curdlan plays its...

Background & Objective: Dendritic cell (DC) is as a key cell in activation of immune response against microbes and disease. Therefore, the effect of recombinant exotoxin A of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on the maturity and the activation of DCs was evaluated in this study. Materials & Methods: Recombinant exotoxin A was produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa DNA. MTT assay was used to evaluate ...
