Neuro-Behçets in a Child
We describe a case of neuro-Behçet disease diagnosed in a 12-year-old girl. This patient presented with recurrent oral ulcers, incontinence, spastic gait, blurry vision, and asymmetrical lower extremity hypertonia. Extensive testing revealed punctate lesions through the central nervous system, vitritis, papillitis, and uveitis. A thorough infectious and neoplastic workup was negative. She was t...
متن کاملMonocyte function in Hodgkin's disease.
Monocyte functions were studied in 16 patients with Hodgkin's disease, 11 untreated and five in unmaintained complete remission. Eleven untreated patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and 21 healthy persons were used as controls. Monocytes were isolated from peripheral blood and enriched to greater than 90%. Lymphoma monocytes showed normal ability to lyse human RBC coated with anti-D IgG antib...
متن کاملQuantification and comparison of TLR2 activity in monocyte-derived macrophages of zebu and crossbred cattle
The present study was conducted to quantify and compare TLR2 (toll-like receptor 2) activity in monocyte-derived macrophages of zebu (Tharparkar) and crossbred (Holstein-Friesian × Jersey × Brown Swiss × Hariana) cattle. The cells were either induced with Pam3CSK4 or kept as control. The TLR2 activity was quantified in terms of IκB-α inhibitory subunit (NFKBIA) messenger RNA (mRNA) copies...
متن کاملMonocyte function and trafficking in cardiovascular disease.
Monocytes are key effectors of the immune homeostasis and play a crucial role in (vascular) injury repair. Despite their role in immune defense and tissue repair mechanisms, monocytes are also involved in several pathological conditions such as autoimmune and cardiovascular diseases as well as cancer. This suggests that monocytes can be used as diagnostic and as therapeutic targets. A better un...
متن کاملInduction of monocyte procoagulant activity by murine hepatitis virus type 3 parallels disease susceptibility in mice
The in vitro induction of procoagulant activity (PCA) in murine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) by murine hepatitis virus type 3 (MHV-3) correlates with the disease susceptibility in three strains of mice. PBM from BALB/c mice, a strain in which MHV-3 infection results in fatal acute fulminant hepatitis, responds to the virus with a robust PCA response, whereas PBM from C3H/St mice, a ...
