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 ...
Age-Associated Remodeling of Neural and Nonneural Thymic Catecholaminergic Network Affects Thymopoietic Productivity
(Karger, Basel, 2011)
Ageing is associated with a progressive decline in thymic cytoarchitecture followed by a less efficient T cell development and decreased emigration of naive T cells to the periphery. These thymic changes are linked to ...
Maturation of IgG avidity to individual rubella virus structural proteins
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2001)
Background: the structural proteins of rubella virus, the capsid protein C and the envelope glycoproteins E1 and E2 were produced in lepidopteran insect cells using baculovirus expression vectors. The C-terminal ends of ...
The activity of ofloxacin against methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus
(Springer-Verlag, 1986)
The return of multiresistant Staphylococcus aureus strains and the appearance of methicillin-resistant strains resistant as well to rifampin and fusidic acid increase the need for new agents to treat infections caused by ...
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 ...
Modulation of humoral immune responses in the rat by centrally applied Met-Enk and opioid receptor antagonists: functional interactions of brain OP1, OP2 and OP3 receptors
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2000)
We have previously demonstrated that central application of leucine-enkephalin (Leu-Enk) elicits potentiation and suppression of humoral immune responses through OP1 (delta) and OP2 (kappa) receptors, respectively. ...
Modulation of the specific immune response in Balb/cmice by intranasal application of recombinant H1D2 chimera
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUND: Group 1 and group 2 allergens from house dust mite are the major elicitors of respiratory allergic diseases and the main candidates for immunotherapy. RESULTS: The potential therapeutic role of a chimera composed ...
Chronic alpha(1)-adrenoreceptor blockade produces age-dependent changes in rat thymus structure and thymocyte differentiation
(F Hernandez, Murcia, 2005)
In order to examine the influence of chronic alpha(1)-adrenergic receptor (alpha(1)-AR) blockade on the thymus structure and T-cell maturation, peripubertal and adult male rats were treated with urapidil (0.20 mg/kg BW/d; ...
Neonatal castration affects intrathymic kinetics of T-cell differentiation and the spleen T-cell level
(Bioscientifica Ltd, Bristol, 2007)
To test putative interdependence in the ontogenesis of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal and thymic-lymphatic axes, thymocyte differentiation and maturation was examined in neonatally castrated (Cx) adult rats. In the ...
Reduced tissue immigration of monocytes by neuropeptide Y during endotoxemia is associated with Y-2 receptor activation
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2004)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) increases survival in experimental septic shock, which might be mediated by cardiovascular and/or immunological effects. To study the latter hypothesis, we monitored blood leukocyte subsets over 96 h ...
