CD8+ T Lymphocyte Subsets in Bladder Tumor Draining Lymph Nodes
Background: Cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, as essential parts of the adaptive immune system, play pivotal roles in anti-tumor immune responses. It is well documented that cytokine expression profiles and activation status of these cells during anti-tumor immune responses affect the outcome of host-tumor interaction. Objective: To investigate the percentages of CD8+ lymphocytes and their subsets in...
متن کاملLow-molecular-weight polysaccharides from Agaricus blazei Murrill modulate the Th1 response in cancer immunity
To assess the effect of low-molecular-weight polysaccharides from Agaricus blazei Murrill (ABP-AW1) as an immunoadjuvant therapy for type 1 T-helper (Th1) responses in tumorigenesis, C57BL/6 mice were inoculated subcutaneously with ovalbumin (E.G7-OVA). After 3, 10 and 17 days, the mice were immunized with PBS, OVA alone, or OVA and ABP-AW1, at low (50 µg), intermediate (100 µg) or high (200 µg...
متن کاملImmunomodulatory effects of Agaricus blazei Murill in Balb/cByJ mice.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Agaricus blazei Murill has been reported to possess biological effects that include immunomodulatory and tumoricidal activities, but its potential effects have not been systematically analyzed in vivo. We evaluated the immunomodulatory effects of A. blazei in Balb/cByJ mice. METHODS 160 male Balb/cByJ mice were divided into four groups and treated with various quantitie...
متن کاملExpression of T-cell-activating protein in peripheral lymphocyte subsets.
T-cell-activating protein (TAP) is an allelic 12-kDa membrane protein that participates in T-cell activation. Soluble anti-TAP monoclonal antibodies can trigger antigen-specific, major histocompatibility complex-restricted T-cell hybridomas to produce interleukin 2 and are mitogenic for normal T cells and thymocytes. TAP is expressed on 10% of thymocytes, which are mainly cortisone-resistant an...
متن کاملHaemophilia and T lymphocyte subsets.
Number of circulating lymphocytes and T cell subsets were assessed in 13 boys with severe haemophilia and 12 age matched controls. There was no significant difference between the two groups. This conflicts with previous findings in adults where lymphopenia and changes in T cell subpopulations have been found frequently.
