Colonic tissue membrane binding to peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes was quantitated by 1251labeling of membrane fragments and by determining the acquisition of membrane-specific enzyme activity and radioactivity in mononuclear cells after contact with the tissue membrane fragments. Mononuclear cells bound equal amounts of non mal and tumor tissue membrane fragments. Mononuclear cells cap...

FRET based ratiometric switch for selective sensing of Al3+ with bio-imaging in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).

Determination of magnesium in mononuclear blood cells may provide useful information about intracellular magnesium. Mononuclear blood cell preparations are frequently contaminated with granulocytes. We determined the normal reference interval for magnesium content and concentration of granulocytes and compared it with magnesium in mononuclear blood cells. The mean granulocyte magnesium concentr...

BACKGROUND Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain why some platelets have a reduced response to aspirin (ASA). Among them, it was reported an increased circulating level of vitamin-D-binding protein (DBP). In addition, nitric oxide (NO) released from mononuclear cells was involved in the antiplatelet effects of ASA. The aim was to analyse the relationship between platelet response to ...

Background and Aims: The aim of this study was to synthesize antibody-conjugated radioactive(thorium oxide) nanoparticles (ACRNPs) and folic acid-conjugated radioactive nanoparticles (FACRNPs). Materials and Methods: After synthesis of nanoparticles, blood samples from CLL patients and normal subjects were obtained, and their mononuclear cells were isolated by Ficoll method. To evaluate cyto...

 ABSTRACT Background: Cholesterol cleft granulomas with clusters of giant cells were noted to be a common feature of non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). Objective: This study aimed to define the cell populations involved in the granulomas. Methods: The granulomas of 16 patients with cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis (five cases with the histological features ofNSIP, five with those ofUIP...

We have examined the capacity of monocytes from patients with leprosy to undergo activation and the capacity of mononuclear cells from these patients to incorporate [3H]thymidine and produce monocyte-activating cytokines. Monocytes from patients with either lepromatous or tuberculoid leprosy were activated by concanavalin A (Con A)-induced mononuclear cell supernatants generated from the leukoc...

Objective: To study whether the generated CD1a positive cells belong to the leukemic cells among patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Materials and Methods: We used mononuclear cells from 3 patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, from which two had monosomy 7. The mononuclear cells from these patients were cultured in RPMI/10%FCS without adding exogeneous growth factors fo...

The crystalline 9-anthracene carboxylic acid and the constructed mononuclear complex were for first time discovered to show radical-induced photochromism photomagnetism after Xe lamp light irradiation.
