Methionine-enkephalin modulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) release by rat peritoneal macrophages involves different types of opioid receptors
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2008)
We investigated the involvement of specific types of opioid receptors in methionine-enkephalin (MET)-induced modulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) release by rat macrophages primed with sub-optimal concentrations of phorbol ...
Neuropeptide Y modulates functions of inflammatory cells in the rat: Distinct role for Y1, Y2 and Y5 receptors
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2011)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been reported to be a potent anti-inflammatory peptide with ability to directly modulate activity of granulocytes and macrophages. The present study aimed to correlate the effects of NPY in vivo ...
Dysregulation of T-Cell Development in Adrenal Glucocorticoid-Deprived Rats
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2009)
A number of different experimental approaches have been used to elucidate the impact: of basal levels of adrenal gland-derived glucocorticoids (GCs) on T cell development, and thereby T cell-mediated immune responses. ...
Brain and liver fatty acid composition changes upon consumption of Lactobacillus rhamnosus LA68
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2015)
Recent reports suggest that the metabolic activity of the enteric microbiota may influence the fatty acid composition of the host tissue. There are many studies dealing with the influence of lactobacilli on various ...
Expression of alpha(1)-adrenoceptors on thymic cells and their role in fine tuning of thymopoiesis
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
The study was undertaken to explore: i) the presence of alpha(1)-adrenoceptors (AR) on thymic lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells and ii) their putative role in T-cell development. The expression of alpha(1)-AR on thymic cells ...
Somatostatin-14 alters relation between the thymocyte subpopulations in adult rats
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2004)
Ovarian hormone level alterations during rat post-reproductive life-span influence CD8+T-cell homeostasis
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2015)
The study examined the putative role of ovarian hormones in shaping of rat peripheral T-cell compartment during post-reproductive period. In 20-month-old rats ovariectomized (Ox) at the very end of reproductive period, ...
Noradrenaline through beta-adrenoceptor contributes to sexual dimorphism in primary CD4+T-cell response in DA rat EAE model?
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2019)
Males exhibit stronger sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activity, but weaker primary CD4 + T-cell (auto) immune responses. To test the role of catecholamines, major end-point SNS mediators, in this dimorphism, influence ...
17 beta-Estradiol influences in vitro response of aged rat splenic conventional dendritic cells to TLR4 and TLR7/8 agonists in an agonist specific manner
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2015)
This study was undertaken considering that, despite the broad use of the unopposed estrogen replacement therapy in elderly women, data on estrogen influence on the functional capacity of dendritic cells (DCs), and consequently ...
In vitro stimulation of Balb/c and C57 BL/6 splenocytes by a recombinantly produced banana lectin isoform results in both a proliferation of T cells and an increased secretion of interferon-gamma
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2010)
Lectins are widely used in many types of assay but some lectins such as banana lectin (BanLec) are recognised as potent immunostimulators Although BanLec's structure and binding characteristics are now familiar, its ...
