H- and L-rich ferritins suppress antibody production, but not proliferation, of human B lymphocytes in vitro.
The effect of human spleen(L-rich) and heart(H-rich) ferritins on the proliferation and differentiation of human B lymphocytes was studied in comparison with that of holo- and apo-transferrins. Ferritins rich in H and L chain, as well as the transferrins, did not inhibit the proliferative response of resting and activated B cells stimulated with polyclonal B-cell mitogen, Staphylococcus aureus ...
متن کاملCD93 is Selectively Expressed on Human Myeloma Cells but Not on B Lymphocytes
Background: CD93 has originally been known as a C1q receptor, and many studies have demonstrated that CD93 is expressed on hematopoietic stem cells, B cell progenitors, myeloid and monocytic cells. Moreover, CD93 is shown to be expressed on long-lived plasma cells, and CD93 deficient-mice display an impairment in plasma cell development. Objective: To investiga...
متن کاملAntiretroviral nucleoside analogues suppress antibody synthesis in human B-lymphocytes.
BACKGROUND Some antiretroviral nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) impair mitochondrial polymerase-γ and T-cell proliferation, possibly by pyrimidine depletion. We aimed to analyse NRTI effects on the content of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and B-cells, and on their proliferation and antibody synthesis. METHODS Peripheral blood B-lymphocytes from six healthy individuals were stimu...
متن کاملOccupational Stress Suppress Production of Anti-HBsAg Antibody in Nurse Staffs Following Hepatitis B Vaccination
Background and Objectives: Vaccination is the major strategy to protect nurses against infection with hepatitis B virus. However, some nurses do not produce sufficient amount of anti-HBsAg antibody required for immunity against infection. Chronic occupational stress has been proposed as a risk factor to humoral immunity. Given that nursing staff is exposed to occupational stress risk, this stud...
متن کاملModulation of in vitro proliferation and cytokine secretion of human lymphocytes by Mentha longifolia extracts
Objective: Mentha longifolia L. Hudson has been used in folk medicine for various purposes especially for its anti-inflammatory effects. Lymphocytes play a central role in development of inflammation. In the present study, we investigated the immunomodulatory effects of different extracts of M. longifolia on human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), as main players in development of inflammati...
