Effect of 6-hydroxydopamine on host resistance against Listeria monocytogenes infection.
Recent studies have shown that immunocompetent cells bear receptors of neuropeptides and neurotransmitters and that these ligands play roles in the immune response. In this study, the role of the sympathetic nervous system in host resistance against Listeria monocytogenes infection was investigated in mice pretreated with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), which destroys sympathetic nerve termini. The...
متن کاملEffect of a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor on host resistance against Listeria monocytogenes infection.
Hydroxy acid-based matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors have been shown to inhibit tumor infiltration and growth, endotoxin shock, and acute graft-versus-host disease. Blockade of the release of soluble tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and CD95 ligand (CD95L; FasL) from cell-associated forms is reportedly involved in the mechanism of the drug effect. We investigated the effect of a ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Oxygen on Bile Resistance in Listeria monocytogenes.
Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive facultative anaerobe that is the causative agent of the disease listeriosis. The infectious ability of this bacterium is dependent upon resistance to stressors encountered within the gastrointestinal tract, including bile. Previous studies have indicated bile salt hydrolase activity increases under anaerobic conditions, suggesting anaerobic conditions i...
متن کاملExamination of host immune resistance against Listeria monocytogenes infection in cyclophosphamide-treated mice after dietary lipid administration.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Despite the beneficial effects in the resolution of inflammatory disorders due to their immunosuppressive properties, n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are associated with a reduction of immune resistance to some microorganisms. Here, we examine the influence of different dietary lipids on host immune resistance against Listeria monocytogenes in mice treated with cyclophosphamid...
متن کاملData on the effect of Cytopiloyne against Listeria monocytogenes infection in mice
Cytopiloyne (CP), a novel polyacetylene compound extracted from B. pilosa, shows a multi-bioactivity, including immunomodulatory and antidiabetes. Here, we investigated the anti-Listeria effect of cytopiloyne in mice by assessing mortality, clearance of L. monocytogenes, and pathology examination. The data presented herein are supplemental to our research article entitled "Cytopiloyne, a polyac...
