Effect of Borage Powder on Blood Cells and Immune System

This study was conducted to compare the effects of diets Borage Powder and control (no additives diets) on broiler’s average blood cell counts and immune system on the broiler chicks. Sixty four male broiler chicks (Ross 308) randomly allocated into one of two treatments with four replicates of eight chickens based on a completely randomized block design.  Diets were include control (no additiv...

The immunomodulatory effects of shark cartilage on the mouse and human immune system

Background: Sharks get cancer rarely. A major difference between these animals and other species is that sharks have a great amount of cartilaginous tissue. Immunomodulatory effects of the cartilage of some species (cow) have been proved. Because the immune system has a major role in the defense of the body against cancer, we studied the effects of shark cartilage on the mouse and human immune...

A brief journey through the immune system.

This review serves as an introduction to an Immunology Series for the Nephrologist published in CJASN. It provides a brief overview of the immune system, how it works, and why it matters to kidneys. This review describes in broad terms the main divisions of the immune system (innate and adaptive), their cellular and tissue components, and the ways by which they function and are regulated. The s...
