Abnormal Autologous Mixed Lymphocyte Reaction in Autoimmune
The autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction (auto-MLR) measures the ability of non-T cells to stimulate autologous T cells to proliferate in tissue culture. The auto-MLR was studied in 1 1 patients with autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura (ATP). Seven patients had decreased auto-MLR. which averaged 4440 ± 3364 cpm (SEM) compared to 1 5.360 ± 6905 cpm for simultaneously studied controls. The averag...
متن کاملCutaneous Hyalohyphomycosis in a Woman with Normal Immune System
Paecilomyces Sp. are saprophytic fungi, which have rarely been pathogen for human. Herein, we report a case of cutaneous infection with Paecilomyces lilacinus with unusual presentations in a healthy young woman. A biopsy provided an initial diagnosis of fungal elements in the tissue. Multiple positive fungal cultures were obtained from the biopsied tissue. Microscopic and macroscopic examinatio...
متن کاملEffects of Maternal Immune System Status on Neonate’s Immune System
Background: This study evaluated the effects of the maternal immune system stimulation or suppression during the pregnancy on the development of the neonate’s immune system.Methods: A total of 20 female rats were divided into four groups. The groups were treated using Leishmania major, Salmonella typhimurium, Tacrolimus, and sterilized normal saline. The animals were mated after 3-time tr...
متن کاملImpairment of the autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction in atopic dermatitis.
The T cell proliferative response to autologous non-T cells is termed the autologous mixed lymphocyte reaction (AMLR). Recent studies have suggested that the AMLR represents an inducer circuit for the activation of T8+ suppressor/cytotoxic effector cells. Since atopic dermatitis (AD) patients are deficient in T8+ cytolytic T cell function, we investigated the AMLR in AD. When sheep erythrocytes...
متن کاملMechanism for maintaining homeostasis in the immune system of the intestine.
Every organism possesses a mechanism for maintaining homeostasis. We have focused on the immune system as a system that helps maintain homeostasis of the body, and particularly on the intestine as the largest organ of immunity in the body. We have also focused our research on the mechanism that responds to foreign substances in the intestine, especially the toll-like receptors (TLR). The activa...
