Functional tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand production by avian influenza virus-infected macrophages.
Severe human disease associated with influenza A H5N1 virus was first detected in Hong Kong in 1997. Its recent reemergence in Asia and high associated mortality highlight the need to understand its pathogenesis. We investigated the roles of death receptor ligands (DRLs) in H5N1 infection. Significant up-regulation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and TNF...
متن کاملOptimizing the process of inactivating influenza virus subtype H9N2 by formalin in the production of killed avian influenza vaccine
Avian influenza is one of the most important diseases in avian industry, which also threats human population. Thus, vaccination is necessary for controlling this viral disease. In this study, killed vaccine of avian influenza subtype H9N2 and formalin solution (for virus inactivation) were used. It is necessary to study the effect of different factors such as formalin concentration, as well as ...
متن کاملHck tyrosine kinase activity modulates tumor necrosis factor production by murine macrophages
The hematopoietic cell kinase (hck) is a member of the src family of tyrosine kinases, and is primarily expressed in myeloid cells. Hck expression increases with terminal differentiation in both monocyte/macrophages and granulocytes and is further augmented during macrophage activation. Recent evidence has implicated src-related tyrosine kinases in critical signaling pathways in other hematopoi...
متن کاملHeparin disaccharides inhibit tumor necrosis factor-alpha production by macrophages and arrest immune inflammation in rodents.
Inflammation is the clinical expression of chemical mediators such as the pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF-)-alpha produced by macrophages and other cells activated in the immune response. Hence, agents that can inhibit TNF-alpha may be useful in treating arthritis and other diseases resulting from uncontrolled inflammation. We now report that the cleavage of heparin by the ...
متن کاملProduction of tumor necrosis factor-alpha by alveolar macrophages from patients with pulmonary tuberculosis.
In order to ascertain the role of TNF-alpha in pulmonary tuberculosis, we determined the TNF-alpha productivity of alveolar macrophages(AMs) obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL), along with the level of TNF-alpha in the serum of patients with tuberculosis including pulmonary, miliary, and endobronchial tuberculosis, healthy controls, and pulmonary diseases such as diffuse interstitial lung d...
