Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNCCRP-1 Might Not be a Marker of so Called NCC Cells in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio) LeukocytesMazal Shimon-Hophy, Avi Jacob, Ramy R. AvtalionThe purpose of this study was to verify whether NCCRP-1 is a marker of a unique type of cells in teleost, so-called NCC, or an ubiquitin, like in cytotoxic cells. Therefore, common carp peripheral blood leukocytes were isolated and tested for the binding of fluorescent NCCRP-1 antibody to stained MAIT, γδ T and T cells following stress treatments. The results … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2020 · 7,757 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesHumoral and Cellular Effects of Stress-An Extensive Model SystemMazal Shimon-Hophy, Ramy R. AvtalionThe influence of stress on the immune system of the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was studied by measuring leukocytes levels using flow cytometry and mRNA immune components by real time qPCR. Acute and chronic oxidative stresses were generated by different regimes of exposure of carp to environmental air. In acute stress, induced by single air exposure, the pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL1β, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2017 · 6,728 accessesView PDFCite
