Biological and Immunological Reactions in Parasitic Diseases
Processed antigen reacts selectively with lymphocytes bearing .appropriate surface immunoglobulin molecules resulting in the clonal proliferation of these cells, producing circulating immunoglobulin (humoral immunity) or non-circulating immunoglobulins (cellular immunity). High levels of circulating immunoglobulins (lgM & lgG) occur in protozoa and helminths infections. Reaginic antibodies a...
متن کاملClinical and Immunological Efficacy of Aspirin Desensitization in Nasal Polyp Patients with Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and the underlining mechanism of aspirindesensitization among patients with Aspirin Exacerbated Respiratory Disease (AERD). Thirtyeightpatients, who had undergone an aspirin challenge test and were diagnosed as havingAERD, were engaged in a double-blind randomized clinical trial. They were divided into twogroups—an active group of patients who went t...

متن کاملEosinophils in asthma and other allergic diseases.
A hallmark of allergic disease is infiltration of the tissues with increased numbers of eosinophils. This is the result of the co-ordinated action of cytokines, particularly IL-5, CCR3 binding chemokines and the adhesion molecules P-selectin and VCAM-1, acting in concert to cause selective trafficking of eosinophils into allergic tissue. This process is orchestrated by the Th-2 allergen specifi...
متن کاملThe Role of Leukotrienes in Respiratory Tract and Asthma
Polyunsaturated fatty acids play a role as precursors of biologically active compounds that can act as mediators or modulators of various cell functions. Thus three main groups of derivatives the prostaglandins, the thromboxanes, and recently discovered leukotrienes are formed by oxygenation and further transformation of various polyunsaturated fatty acids of which arachidonic acid plays t...
