Differentiation of an adult neuron cell line increases susceptibility to rabies infection.
A wide variety of in vitro models have been used for studying rabies infection, however, currently, no central nervous system (CNS) adult neuron cultures are available. The current study determined the susceptibility to rabies infection in an adult CNS neuron cell line (CAD-R1). Cultures of CAD-R1 cells were held for 5 days in medium containing serum (undifferentiated CAD-R1 cells) or in serum-...
متن کاملRabies Infection: An Overview of Lyssavirus-Host Protein Interactions
Viruses are obligatory intracellular parasites that use cell proteins to take the control of the cell functions in order to accomplish their life cycle. Studying the viral-host interactions would increase our knowledge of the viral biology and mechanisms of pathogenesis. Studies on pathogenesis mechanisms of lyssaviruses, which are the causative agents of rabies, have revealed some important ho...
متن کاملTobacco use increases susceptibility to bacterial infection
Active smokers and those exposed to secondhand smoke are at increased risk of bacterial infection. Tobacco smoke exposure increases susceptibility to respiratory tract infections, including tuberculosis, pneumonia and Legionnaires disease; bacterial vaginosis and sexually transmitted diseases, such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea; Helicobacter pylori infection; periodontitis; meningitis; otitis med...
متن کاملNerve growth factor induces neuron-like differentiation of an insulin-secreting pancreatic beta cell line.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) is the best understood of a class of trophic proteins that are important for the survival of neurons and the elaboration of their characteristic processes. Here we demonstrate that RINm5F, a rat insulinoma cell line representing an early stage in pancreatic beta cell differentiation, expresses both the Trk and p75 NGF receptors and responds to NGF by extending neurite-...
متن کاملHyperthermia Increases Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity against SW-872 Liposarcoma Cell Line
Background: Although there is convincing data in support of the effectiveness of hyperthermia in tumor therapy, the molecular mechanisms underlying the clinical effects of hyperthermia are still poorly understood. Objective: To investigate natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity against heat-treated SW-872 and HeLa tumor cell lines. Methods: NKG2D ligands and HLA class I transcription were examin...
