Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis immunoglobulins G enhance the mobility of Lysotracker-labelled vesicles in cultured rat astrocytes
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2011)
Aim: We examined the effect of purified immunoglobulins G (IgG) from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) on the mobility and exocytotic release from Lysotracker-stained vesicles in cultured rat astrocytes. ...
Sex Difference in Oxidative Stress Parameters in Spinal Cord of Rats with Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: Relation to Neurological Deficit
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, New York, 2017)
The study examined (a) whether there is sex difference in spinal cord and plasma oxidative stress profiles in Dark Agouti rats immunised for experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the principal experimental model ...
Physicochemical and immunologic characterization of low molecular-weight allergoids of Dactylis glomerata pollen proteins
(Wiley, Hoboken, 1999)
Background: Orchard grass (Dactylis glomerata) pollen proteins were chemically modified by means of acid anhydrides (maleic and succinic anhydride) to obtain low-molecular-weight allergoids. Chemical modification in both ...
Autoantibody response and pregnancy-related pathology induced by combined LPS and tetanus toxoid hyperimmunization in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2015)
Recent data concerning antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) induction have shown that beta(2)-glycoprotein I (beta(2)GPI) binds lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which results in conformational changes, exposition of a cryptic epitope ...
The anti-inflammatory effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in rats is dependent on dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DP4) activity and age
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2008)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY)-induced modulation of the immune and inflammatory responses is regulated by tissue-specific expression of different receptor subtypes (Y1-Y6) and the activity of the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DP4, ...
Activity of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase in workers occupationally exposed to mercury
(Springer, New York, 1998)
According to previous research the lipid peroxidation process has a significant role in mercury toxicity. Since glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) play a significant role in erythrocyte antioxidative ...
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 ...
