Evaluation of immunosuppression induced by metronidazole in Balb/c mice and human peripheral blood lymphocytes.
The immunomodulatory effect of metronidazole (MTZ), a nitroimidazole drug used as an antiprotozoal and antibacterial agent, was investigated using Balb/c mice and human peripheral blood lymphocytes. For in vivo studies, mice were divided into six groups, six animals per group, group I received vehicle alone while the other groups (II-VI) received intraperitoneal injections of MTZ (14, 28, 42, 5...
متن کاملPhosphoinositide hydrolysis in mitogen-stimulated human peripheral-blood T lymphocytes.
Both phytohaemagglutinin and antibodies to the CD3 molecule induced proliferation and phosphoinositide hydrolysis in human peripheral-blood T lymphocytes, but the magnitude of the inositol phosphate response was small and the rate of accumulation slow [significant increases in Ins(1,4,5)P3 were observed only after 10 min]. Hence this response differs from the well-characterized Ins(1,4,5)P3 res...
متن کاملCord blood T lymphocytes lack constitutive perforin expression in contrast to adult peripheral blood T lymphocytes.
Perforin is the cytolytic pore-forming protein, which alone can be responsible for the lethal hit in one of the killing mechanisms used by natural killer (NK) cells or cytotoxic T lymphocytes. In this study, perforin expression was investigated in cord blood (CB) lymphocytes to determine their killing potential in vivo. The majority of CB CD3- NK cells had the protein. Compared with adult perfo...

متن کاملThymosin increases production of T-cell growth factor by normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes.
The in vitro incubation of phytohemagglutinin-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes with thymosin results in a marked and reproducible increase in production of T-cell growth factor, which is dose dependent and most pronounced in the first 24 hr of culture. Incubation of lymphocytes with thymosin alone failed to induce any production of T-cell growth factor. The biological activity of thymosi...
