Staphylococcal Enterotoxins
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a Gram positive bacterium that is carried by about one third of the general population and is responsible for common and serious diseases. These diseases include food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome, which are caused by exotoxins produced by S. aureus. Of the more than 20 Staphylococcal enterotoxins, SEA and SEB are the best characterized and are also reg...
متن کاملAlpha-fetoprotein suppresses experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), induced in guinea pigs by immunization with myelin basic protein (MBP) or whole CNS homogenate was successfully treated, as well as partially prevented, by daily administration of fetal alpha-fetoprotein (alpha FP). alpha FP which is produced in high quantities during pregnancy can inhibit both the cell-mediated immune response to MBP and the bindi...
متن کاملMetabolomics approaches in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
A myelin basic protein (MBP)-induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) involves paraplegia due to a reversible thoracolumbar spinal cord impairment. The aims of this study were thus to find significant metabolic biomarkers of inflammation and identify the site of inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) during the acute signs in of the disease using metabolomics. All the EAE...
متن کاملMR of acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
Acute experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, an animal model of CNS inflammatory and demyelinating disease, was produced in guinea pigs and imaged with MR. Correlation of histopathology with MR revealed acute mononuclear perivascular inflammatory changes and edema corresponding to the high-intensity abnormalities observed on long repetition time (TR) images. Our results suggest that in acute ...
