A role for tumour necrosis factor-alpha, complement C5 and interleukin-6 in the initiation and development of the mycobacterial cord factor trehalose 6,6'-dimycolate induced granulomatous response.
Trehalose 6,6'-dimycolate (TDM) is a glycolipid component of the mycobacterial cell wall that causes immune responses in mice similar to Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection, including granuloma formation with production of proinflammatory cytokines. The precise roles of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, complement C5 and interleukin (IL)-6 in the molecular events that lead to the initi...
متن کاملIn vivo administration of mycobacterial cord factor (Trehalose 6, 6'-dimycolate) can induce lung and liver granulomas and thymic atrophy in rabbits.
Trehalose 6,6'-dimycolate (TDM) is a cell surface molecule of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TDM induced a loss of body weight and prominent granulomas in the liver and lungs by the intravenous injection of TDM into rabbits. TDM also induced atrophy of the thymus and spleen due to apoptosis. By contrast, sulfolipid (2,3,6, 6'-tetraacyl trehalose 2'-sulfate) induced neither toxicity, nor granuloma ...
متن کاملGranulomatous hypersensitivity to trehalose-6,6'-dimycolate (cord factor) in mice infected with BCG.
Cord factor in the form of emulsion is unable to sensitize mice to react with a more extensive granulomatous response to a subsequent challenge with the same substance. Mice infected with BCG bacilli are sensitized to cord factor. Such animals react to administration of cord factor with a very extensive granulomatous response, much stronger than normal ones. This hypersensitivity seems to be sp...
متن کاملImmunotherapy of Cancer with Nonliving BCG and Fractions Derived from Mycobacteria: Role of Cord Factor (Trehalose-6, 6'-Dimycolate) in Tumor Regression.
Delipidated and deproteinized cell walls from Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra suspended in 1.25% mineral oil emulsion cured established tumors in the skin and metastases in draining lymph nodes of guinea pigs (strain 2) after intratumoral administration in 33% of the cases examined. This was increased to 83% when a mixture of cord factor and the delipidated cell walls was used. A similarly hig...
متن کاملHigh Secretion of Interleukin-6 and Increased MINCLE Receptor Expression Upon Exposure to Mycobacterial Cord Factor Analog Trehalose-6, 6-Dibehenate (TDB) in Patients with Takayasu Arteritis
Received: December 14, 2017 Revised: January 09, 2018 Accepted: January 25, 2018 Abstract: Introduction: Suspicion on the association between Takayasu Arteritis (TA) and Tubcerculosis (TB) has been in vogue for years. Prevalence of TB in TA is reported to be higher. We aimed to study innate immune responses in patients with TA on exposure to Trehalose-6,6dibehenate (TDB), a synthetic analogue o...
