Reticuloendothelial system phagocytic function in patients with Hodgkin's disease.
Phagocytic function of the reticuloendothelial system as measured by the clearance of (125)I-labeled aggregated human serum albumin (AA) was studied in patients with Hodgkin's disease. Each more advanced stage of the disease was associated with more rapid clearance of the AA. Production of remission by radiation therapy or by chemotherapy was associated in some patients with slowing of the clea...
متن کاملFunction of the Reticuloendothelial System
Reticuloendothelial clearance of carbon particles is inhibited by injection of heat-aggregated albumin. The possibility that this inhibition might involve a serum component has been explored. Evidence that such a serum factor does participate in carbon clearance inhibition by heat-aggregated albumin derives from the fact that prior treatment of the carbon with homologous serum eliminates the bl...
متن کاملReticuloendothelial Immune Serum (REIS)
The importance of the reticuloendothelial system in relation to neoplasms has been recently brought into focus by a group of Soviet workers. According to Shimkin (18), blockading of the reticuloendothelial system has been used by Roskin (16) as a means of growing heteroplastic tumors. Bogomolets (3) has reported the effect of specific antireticular cytotoxic serum (ACS) on the genesis, survival...
متن کاملIVIg inhibits reticuloendothelial system function and ameliorates murine passive-immune thrombocytopenia independent of anti-idiotype reactivity.
Although the mechanism of action of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) in treating antibody-dependent thrombocytopenia remains unclear, most studies have suggested that IVIg blocks the function of Fc receptors in the reticuloendothelial system (RES) and/or the protective effect may be due to the presence of variable region-reactive (anti-idiotype) antibodies within IVIg. We evaluated the effect ...
متن کاملReticuloendothelial system and hepatocytic function in fulminant hepatic failure.
Kupffer cell and hepatocyte function were studied in 36 patients with fulminant hepatic failure by measurement of clearance of 125I microaggregated albumin (125IMAA) and galactose, respectively. Both were impaired but there was no correlation with final outcome, although on sequential testing 48 hours later, those patients who survived had a significantly greater improvement in Kupffer cell and...
