Effects of dialyzable transfer factor in patients with breast cancer.
Five patients with advanced breast cancer were treated with pooled dialyzable transfer factor from healthy adult donors. The period of treatment ranged from 21 to 310 days, the total dose from 20 to 257 ml. Transfer factor did not elicit inflammatory or hypersensitivity reactions or detectable formation of antibody to itself, nor any hematological or biochemical abnormalities or other side effe...
متن کاملTransfer of delayed hypersensitivity in mice to microbial antigens with dialyzable transfer factor.
Dialyzable Lawrence-type transfer factor was prepared from the spleen cells of CF1 mice inoculated with Coccidioides immitis- and Candida albicans-killed vaccines and with live Mycobacterium tuberculosis vaccine (BCG). These preparations were shown to transfer antigen-specific cell-mediated immunity to naive mice, as measured by the delayed skin test and footpad-swelling methods. Reactivity cou...
متن کاملImmunotherapy with Dialyzable Leukocyte Extracts Containing Transfer Factor
Dialyzable leukocyte extracts (DLE) are complexes consisting of a large number of low molecular weight substances. These extracts possess immunomodulatory properties, which are mainly attributed to small peptides with molecular weight of 3.5–6.0 kDa called “transfer factor.” This chapter reviews the nature and immunological characteristics of DLE containing transfer factor (TF), their mechanism...
متن کاملDialyzable Leukocyte Extract (Transfer Factor) as Adjuvant Immunotherapy in the Treatment of Cancer
Dialyzable Leukocyte Extract (DLE) is an extract obtained from immune lymphocytes capable of transferring antigenspecific information for cell-mediated immunity (CMI) from an immunized donor to a naïve recipient. Those products, also called Transfer Factors (TF), are peptides of 3500-6000 kDa in molecular weight; light yellow fluid with pH 6.5-7.0, composed of oligoribonucleotides attached a pe...
متن کاملCharacterization of the protease activity in the chemotactic factor inactivator.
The chemotactic factor inactivator (CFI) isolated from human serum contains a kininase activity that causes extensive hydrolysis of bradykinin. The highly chemotactic synthetic peptide Met-Leu-Phe was completely hydrolyzed by CFI preparations. The release of the constituent amino acids from this peptide coincided with a loss of its chemotactic activity. The N-formyl, but not the amide derivativ...
