Assessment of ATP8B1 Deficiency in Pediatric Patients With Cholestasis Using Peripheral Blood Monocyte-Derived Macrophages
Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 1 (PFIC1), a rare inherited recessive disease resulting from a genetic deficiency in ATP8B1, progresses to liver failure. Because of the difficulty of discriminating PFIC1 from other subtypes of PFIC based on its clinical and histological features and genome sequencing, an alternative method for diagnosing PFIC1 is desirable. Herein, we analyze...
متن کاملmRNA and apolipoprotein E synthesis abnormalities in peripheral blood monocyte macrophages in familial apolipoprotein E deficiency.
We have studied synthesis of apolipoprotein E (apo-E) and apo-E mRNA in cultures of peripheral blood human monocyte macrophages (M-M cultures) obtained from a patient with familial apolipoprotein E deficiency. We have found that the M-M cultures of the apo-E-deficient patients contained two apo-E mRNA species with slightly different molecular weight as compared to normal apo-E mRNA. The apo-E m...
متن کاملEffects of in vitro HIV-1 infection on mycobacterial growth in peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages.
Coinfection with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and opportunistic mycobacteria, especially Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a cause of high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Both mycobacteria and HIV-1 may infect macrophages, and thus, coinfection may generate conditions that reciprocally influence the intracellular replication of the pathogens. Elucidation of the interaction betwee...
متن کاملQuantification and comparison of TLR2 activity in monocyte-derived macrophages of zebu and crossbred cattle
The present study was conducted to quantify and compare TLR2 (toll-like receptor 2) activity in monocyte-derived macrophages of zebu (Tharparkar) and crossbred (Holstein-Friesian × Jersey × Brown Swiss × Hariana) cattle. The cells were either induced with Pam3CSK4 or kept as control. The TLR2 activity was quantified in terms of IκB-α inhibitory subunit (NFKBIA) messenger RNA (mRNA) copies...
