Somatostatin modulates T cells development in adult rat thymus
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
It is well known that somatostatin modulates thymic functions, such as binding to receptors. In order to elucidate the influence of somatostatin on the thymus architecture and the T cells maturation, young adult male rats ...
Resurgence of measles in Serbia 2010-2011 highlights the need for supplementary immunization activities
(Cambridge Univ Press, New York, 2016)
Between December 2010 and August 2011 an outbreak of measles occurred in Serbia with 363 reported cases. Sera and/or nose/throat swabs were collected from 193 patients and tested for measles-specific IgM antibodies by ELISA ...
Isolation of a coronavirus from kidney biopsies of endemic Balkan nephropathy patients
(S. Karger AG, 1999)
Endemic Balkan nephropathy (EBN) is a kidney disease of unknown etiology limited to Bulgaria, Rumania and former Yugoslavia. Primary kidney tissue cultures were established as explants from tissue obtained at operations ...
Beta-endorphin differentially affects inflammation in two inbred rat strains
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2006)
It has been shown that inflammation of rat paws elicits accumulation of opioid peptide is-endorphin-containing immune cells in the inflamed subcutaneous tissue, contributing to immumocyte-produced pain suppression. However, ...
The influence of stress and methionine-enkephalin on macrophage functions in two inbred rat strains
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
The aim of our current study was to investigate the effect of acute exposure to electric tail shock stress (ES) and to a stress witnessing procedure (SW), as models for physical and psychological stress paradigms, respectively, ...
Methionine-enkephalin stimulates hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide production in rat peritoneal macrophages: Interaction of mu, delta and kappa opioid receptors
(Karger, Basel, 2004)
Objective: Methionine-enkephalin ( MET) modulates various functions of macrophages related to both immune and inflammatory reactions in a naloxone reversible manner, suggesting that opioid receptors are involved in the ...
Exposure to acute physical and psychological stress alters the response of rat macrophages to corticosterone, neuropeptide Y and beta-endorphin
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2007)
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of acute exposure to electric tail shock stress (ES) and a stress witnessing procedure ( SW), as models for physical and psychological stress paradigms, ...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), but not nitric oxide (NO), contribute to strain differences in the susceptibility to experimental arthritis in rats
(Elsevier Gmbh, Munich, 2007)
There is extensive evidence for the critical role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) produced by phagocytes in development of inflammatory processes and pathogenesis of numerous diseases, including ...
Strain specificities in age-related changes in mechanisms promoting and controlling rat spinal cord damage in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
The study investigated strain specificities in age-related differences in CD8+ T cell-and microglial cell-mediated mechanisms implicated in induction/perpetuation and/or control of neuroinflammation in experimental autoimmune ...
