Five methods have been used in an effort to reveal an antibody that could account for the features of acquired resistance to Listeria monocytogenes: (a) a comparison of the growth rates of Listeria in the spleens of mice infused repeatedly with normal or immune mouse serum; (b) measurement of peritoneal clearance of Listeria in the presence of normal or immune mouse serum; (c) the survival rate...

After the injection of normal horse serum in the human being, serum sickness occurs even more regularly than in cases treated with the various immune sera, but this is not accompanied by the production, to any notable degree, of circulating antibodies of the various types that are regularly to be demonstrated after the administration of immune serum and its resulting serum sickness. Since norma...

Hyperimmune antirickettsial serum was shown to prevent the attachment/penetration stage of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi infection of suspended chicken cells. The extent of the inhibition depended on the serum concentration but not on the presence of complement. The neutralizing activity was reduced by prior adsorption of immune serum with staphylococcal protein A or with intact rickettsiae but was ...

Neisseria gonorrhoeae that resist complement-dependent killing by normal human serum (NHS) are sometimes killed by immune convalescent serum from patients recovering from disseminated gonococcal infection (DGI). In these studies, killing by immune serum was prevented or blocked by IgG isolated from NHS. Purified human IgG antibodies directed against gonococcal protein III, an antigenically cons...

this study examined the possible effects of lycopene at physiological dosage and body fat mass on the humoral immune response in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm). a total of 35 patients with typ2 diabetes mellitus from both sexes aged 54±9 yrs from the iranian diabetes society were introduced into a double blind placebo controlled clinical trial conducted for 2 months. after a 2-we...

Raji cells were used for the isolation of complement-fixing antigen-antibody complexes from serum. Immune complexes bound to these cells were radiolabeled at the cell surface with lactoperoxidase. The complexes were then eluted from the cells with isotonic citrate buffer pH 3.2 or recovered by immunoprecipitation of cell lysates. The antigen and antibody moieties of the complexes were isolated ...
