Prevention of autoantibody formation and prolonged survival in New Zealand black/New Zealand white F1 mice fed dehydroisoandrosterone.
Dehydroisoandrosterone, administered orally to New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 hybrid mice, prevented the formation of antibodies to double-stranded DNA and prolonged survival in this murine model of lupus erythematosus.
متن کاملPrevention of autoantibody formation and prolonged survival in New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 mice with an ancient Chinese herb, Ganoderma tsugae.
For centuries, Chinese medicine has regarded Ganoderma, a fungus (Myceteae, Amastigomycota, Busidomycetes, Aphyllophorales, Polyporaceae, Ganoderma) also known as 'Ling Zhi' in Mandarin, as a premium remedy for many diseases. Until now, no convincing data regarding its therapeutic effects in vivo on autoimmune diseases have been demonstrated. In this study, a controlled protocol was conducted i...
متن کاملPrevention of glomerulonephritis and prolonged survival in New Zealand Black/New Zealand White F1 hybrid mice fed an essential fatty acid-deficient diet.
Female B/W mice spontaneously develop an autoimmune disease that is similar to systemic lupus erythematosus. Antibodies to doublestranded DNA (dsDNA) and antinuclear antibodies develop in aging animals; death from immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis occurs from 8 to 12 mo of age. It has been reported that prostaglandin (PG)E(1) treatment of such mice prolongs survival. In the present stu...
متن کاملSialoadhesin deficiency does not influence the severity of lupus nephritis in New Zealand Black x New Zealand White F1 mice
INTRODUCTION Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic inflammatory condition with multisystem involvement. One of the key features of the disease is the upregulation of type I interferons, resulting in the so-called "interferon signature". Recent flow cytometric and transcriptomic studies identified Sialoadhesin (Sn, CD169) as an important interferon-induced blood monocyte biomarker in d...
متن کاملTerminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase deficiency reduces the incidence of autoimmune nephritis in (New Zealand Black x New Zealand White)F1 mice.
Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) enzyme activity in lymphocytes generates diversity in the Ag receptor repertoires by adding template-independent N nucleotides and disrupting homology-directed rearrangements. The importance of this diversity in vivo and the significance of the suppression of TdT during fetal life remain uncertain. Previous studies have shown that in TdT knockout mice...
