Bactericidal Action and Cytophilic Antibodies of Macrophages of Infected Guinea Pigs

Interactions between macrophages of guinea pigs and salmonellae. 3. Bactericidal action and cytophilic antibodies of macrophages of infected guinea pigs.

The fate of virulent Salmonella typhimurium within macrophages of guinea pigs was assessed by a suspended cell culture procedure. The present study confirmed that macrophages of normal guinea pigs were capable of inactivating the ingested salmonellae. Macrophages of previously infected guinea pigs were not endowed with any significant increase in their ability to eliminate the ingested pathogen...

Evaluation of Humoral Immune Response to Foot-and-Mouth Disease Vaccination in Experimentally Infected Guinea Pigs with Trypanosoma evansi

Interactions between salmonellae and macrophages of guinea pigs. IV. Relationship between migration inhibition and antibacterial action of macrophages.

The in vitro macrophage migration inhibition test was used to detect the development of delayed-type hypersensitivity in guinea pigs infected with Salmonella typhimurium. Four different preparations from supernatants of S. typhimurium cultures were used as the antigens in this test. They included the concentrated bacterial antigens, the high-molecular-weight (>50,000) antigens, the ammonium sul...

Suppression of severe airway inflammation with non-toxic dietary nutrients in histamine-challenged guinea pigs: A comparison with Ibuprofen

We hypothesize that selected combinations of nutrients commonly encountered in the human diet, suppress asthma-associated airway inflammation more effectively than currently available anti-inflammatory medications. Here we demonstrate that biflavones and terpenes, distributed widely in human diet (in this case derived from Ginkgo biloba) synergize with the carotenoid antioxidant astaxanthin and...
