Enhancement of Chemotactic Factor - Stimulated Neutrophil
Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a potent primary stimulator of neutrophil chemotaxis, aggregation. and degranulation and induces superoxide production at higher concentrations. In order to determine whether LTB4 modulates neutrophil responses to oxidative stimuli, human neutrophils (PMNs) were incubated with LTB4 prior to stimulation with fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP. 1 0 mol/L). opsonized zymosan (OZ. 250 tg/m...
متن کاملAditi Singh et al: Detection of A Neutrophil Chemotactic Factor
Japanese encephalitis (JE) one of the most common cause of acute encephalitis in tropical regions, has generated much public anxiety in India. An early influx of macrophages followed by neutrophils at the site of injury in different organs in humans and mice has previously been reported. It correlated with production of a neutrophil chemotactic protein derived from macrophages. In the present s...
متن کاملLaser induced mortality of Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes.
Small, flying insects continue to pose great risks to both human health and agricultural production throughout the world, so there remains a compelling need to develop new vector and pest control approaches. Here, we examined the use of short (<25 ms) laser pulses to kill or disable anesthetized female Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes, which were chosen as a representative species. The mortality ...
متن کاملFactors affecting membrane feeding of Anopheles stephensi.
The impact of optimal temperature, osmotic pressure, and diet viscosity on the number of mosquitoes (Anopheles stephensi) feeding through a membrane, and on the size of the blood meal, was evaluated. An increase in diet viscosity decreased the number of imbibing mosquitoes, reduced the size of the ingested meal, and resulted in a slower rate of weight loss after feeding. The possible effect of ...
متن کاملMetabolic pathways in Anopheles stephensi mitochondria.
No studies have been performed on the mitochondria of malaria vector mosquitoes. This information would be valuable in understanding mosquito aging and detoxification of insecticides, two parameters that have a significant impact on malaria parasite transmission in endemic regions. In the present study, we report the analyses of respiration and oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria of cultu...
