Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Phase Proteins, Lipid Profile and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Healthy and Bronchopneumonic Water Buffalo CalvesSabry M. El-Bahr, Wael M. EL-DeebThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of Acute Phase Proteins (APP), lipid profiles and proinflammatory cytokines in healthy and bronchopneumonic water buffalo calves. Therefore, sixty water buffalo calves (9±1 month old, 175±15 kg) were divided into two equal groups, the first group represented healthy, control, calves whereas calves of the second group were affected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary β-glucan Leads to Increased TNF-α Production in the LungRadiah C. Minor, Melody L. Robinson-Wright, Morika Williams, Steven L. HurleyProblem statement: Beta (β)-glucan is notable for its ability to stimulate the immune system and as such β-glucan and products containing β-glucan are used as dietary supplements for livestock and companion animals. β-glucan has been shown to activate macrophages and neutrophils and modulate the production of certain cytokines, including the pro-inflammatory cytokine, Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α). Because TNF-α is … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 11 Jun 2012 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnderstand the Role of Natural KillerHan Yuen Lam, Swee Keong Yeap, Noorjahan Banu Alitheen et al.Problem statement: Immunosuppression is a common approach for pathogens or cancer to escape from immune system of the infected host. Some of the antimicrobe or anticancer drugs may also weaken the body immune system. Among various types of immune cell, natural killer cells are the key component of the innate immunity which plays an important role in first line defense … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 5 Aug 2011 · 7,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInflammatory Cytokine Expression Patterns in Rat Skin Exposed to JP-8 Jet FuelRandle M. Gallucci, Bethany M. MickleOne of the main complaints of personnel exposed to JP-8 jet fuel is irritant dermatitis. The purpose of this investigation is to describe the JP-8 induced inflammatory cytokine response in skin over various periods of exposure. JP-8 jet fuel or acetone control (300 μL) was applied to the denuded skin of rats once a day for up to seven days. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,042 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Properties of Kaurenoic Acid on Macrophages of BALB/c in VitroJuliana Aparecida Macri, Suelen Santos da Silva, Milena Menegazzo Miranda et al.Kaurenoic acid has been displaying anti-inflammatory effect described in different models. However, the per se immunomodulatory effects of kaurenoic acid remain to be investigated. Thus, the immunomodulatory and antioxidant effects of kaurenoic acid were investigated in vitro on peritoneal macrophages from BALB/c mice. Kaurenoic acid induced per se the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNFα, IL-1β and IFN-γ while … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2015 · 7,883 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAssessment of Therapeutic Effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Knee Osteoarthritis: Possible Role of Inflammatory CytokinesMohammed H. Hassan, Sawsan Abuhamdah et al.Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial disease that commonly affects the knee. Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) regulates inflammation during OA. Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) may be involved in the pathophysiology of arthritis. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may reduce pain associated with OA. The present study assessed the possible therapeutic effects of PRP in patients with OA of the knee with varying … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2021 · 6,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModulation of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-17 Cytokines is Related to Parasitemia Control in Mice Infected by Trypanosoma cruzi and Treated with BiotherapyFabiana Nabarro Ferraz, Franciele Karina da Veiga, Denise Lessa Aleixo et al.The study of biotherapies as an intervention in experimental models of infection is a possible means to understand the effects of these highly diluted medications. The present study evaluated the immunological and parasitological effects of biotherapies that were prepared from mouse serum that was uninfected (sarcode: BSNI13cH group) and chronically infected with the Y strain of T. cruzi (nosode: BSI13cH … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 30 Oct 2015 · 7,357 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSoluble CD14, Sialic Acid and L-Fucose in Breast Milk and their Role in Increasing the Immunity of Breast-Fed InfantsGhalib Ali Oriquat, Tahia H. Saleem, Samir T. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Breast milk contain protective factors as soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid which increase the innate immunity and level of intelligence, decrease the incidence of gastroenteritis, chest and other systemic diseases in newly born infants. In the present study the role of soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid, in increasing the immunity in breastfed infants were studied to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 10,188 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInduction of a Soluble Anti-HIV-1 factor (s) with IFN-γ, IL-10, and β-Chemokine Modulating Activity by an Influenza-Bacterial Polyantigenic MixtureJosé W. Rodríguez, Nat O. Pagan, Mar C. Ocasio et al.Partial immune restoration may be obtained with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), but specific anti-HIV-1 immune responses do not appear to improve substantially. We have demonstrated that a soluble factor(s) induced by a mixture of inactivated influenza and bacterial vaccines called polyantigenic immunomodulator (PAI), possesses strong immunoregulatory and anti- HIV-1 activities. In the present study, we show that culture fluids … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,845 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInhibition of Cholesterol Esterification Influences Cytokine Exspression in Lypopolisaccharide-activated P388D1 MacrophagesRosa Rita Bonatesta, Francesca Sanna, Sabrina Uda et al.Several in vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated the involvement of infectious agents in the development of atherosclerosis. However, the mechanisms by which micro-organisms induce and/or aggravate atherosclerosis, are so far unclear. Accumulation of cholesterol esters and lipid laden cell formation are hallmark of the atherogenesis, however, the possible relationship between cholesterol esterification and the signal-transducing component of LPS … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
