MPT64 is one of the secreted proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Little is known about its role in infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this study, we demonstrated that MPT64 could dose-dependently inhibit the apoptosis of RAW264.7 macrophages induced by PPD-BCG. Quantitative real-time PCR results showed that the expression of bcl-2 increased in macrophages treated with MPT64 compa...
All subjects had clear chest X-rays at entry into the study, and were skin tested with 10 U PPD-B (prepared from Mycobacterium intracellulare) and 3 U of PPD-S (prepared from M. tuberculosis), before being allocated into groups that received placebo, or either high or low doses of Danish or French BCG. The lack of protection overall was documented previously. The new study analyses the results ...
We studied the effect of treatment with diethylcarbamazine (DEC) on immune responses to parasite antigens in humans infected with Brugia malayi. In vitro lymphocyte proliferative responses to microfilarial antigens increased in patients who became amicrofilaremic after treatment with DEC. No changes in reactivity were observed in amicrofilaremic individuals who were given DEC or in a small numb...
http://www.journal-imab-bg.org / J of IMAB. 2015, vol. 21, issue 2/ ABSTRACT This study has been designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of BCG vaccine in school-entering children in terms of tuberculin response to PPD and scar formation as indicators for successful vaccination. 12 BCG lots were used to immunize 1054 tuberculin-negative children at age of 7 years. Local lesions were observed a...
Risk of Mycobacterium avium complex disease was examined in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with and without a history of tuberculosis. Information was obtained by retrospective review of charts of patients in HIV clinics in 10 US cities. Among 1363 patients with <200 CD4 cells/mm3 seen at Grady Memorial Hospital (GMH), 11 (17%) of 66 with a history of a positive purified p...
BACKGROUND The thaumatin-like protein (TLP) Ole e 13 in raw olive fruit is responsible for occupational allergy in olive oil mill workers. However, these workers do not experience allergic symptoms after ingestion of edible olive. OBJECTIVES To analyze the presence of IgE-reactive TLP in raw and edible olive fruit and to assess the allergenic potency of both sources. METHODS The content of ...
We report on the performance of four HDL-cholesterol assays: a homogeneous method based on polyethylene glycol-modified enzymes/alpha-cyclodextrin sulfate (PEGME; Kyowa); a homogeneous method based on polyanion-polymer/detergent (PPD; Daiichi); the usual precipitation method with phosphotungstic acid/MgCl2 (PTA); and an ultracentrifugation (UC) procedure. The homogeneous HDL-cholesterol assays ...
OBJECTIVE To determine whether preventive treatment for tuberculosis in adults infected with HIV reduces the frequency of tuberculosis and overall mortality. DESIGN Systematic review and data synthesis of randomised placebo controlled trials. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Active tuberculosis, mortality, and adverse drug reaction requiring cessation of the study regimen. Outcomes stratified by statu...
BACKGROUND In the US, scrofula is generally uncommon, but it may be the manifestation of disseminated tuberculosis in immunocompromised patients. Given the delay to obtain PPD results, AFB results, and cultures for TB, the emergency physician (EP) must rely on the history and physical examination to make the diagnosis of scrofula. AIMS To illustrate a set of criteria that would be useful to t...
Human T cell responses to ESAT-6 and eight synthetic overlapping peptides were investigated in tuberculosis (TB) patients and control subjects from regions of high and low endemicity for TB. ESAT-6 was recognized by 65% of all tuberculin purified protein derivative-responsive TB patients, whereas only 2 of 29 bacille Calmette-Guérin-vaccinated Danish healthy donors recognized this molecule. In ...
