Anti-arthritic Effect of 1'-acetoxychavicol Acetate in Complete Freunds Adjuvant-induced Arthritis in Rats

1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) is a phenylpropanoid present in Alpinia galanga (L) Willd syn. Languas galanga. The objective of this study was to isolate 1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) from acetone extract of Alpinia galanga (AEAG) and evaluate anti-arthritic activity of 1'-Acetoxychavicol acetate (ACA) and acetone extract of Alpinia galanga (AEAG) on complete Freund’s Adjuvant-induced arth...

Adjuvant activity of mycobacterial fractions: adjuvant activity of synthetic N-acetylmuramyl-dipeptide and the related compounds.

Immunological activity of synthetic cell wall peptidoglycan subunits was examined in guinea pigs and mice. It was concluded that the minimal adjuvant-active subunit of cell wall peptidoglycan for the induction of delayed-type hypersensitivity to monoazobenzenearsonate-N-acetyl-L-tyrosine and for circulating-antibody formation to bacterial alpha-amylase and the thymus-independent antigen DNP-Fic...

Cationic Liposomes Formulated with Synthetic Mycobacterial Cordfactor (CAF01): A Versatile Adjuvant for Vaccines with Different Immunological Requirements

BACKGROUND It is now emerging that for vaccines against a range of diseases including influenza, malaria and HIV, the induction of a humoral response is insufficient and a substantial complementary cell-mediated immune response is necessary for adequate protection. Furthermore, for some diseases such as tuberculosis, a cellular response seems to be the sole effector mechanism required for prote...

Adjuvant surgical treatment of nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease.

BACKGROUND According to the 2007 American Thoracic Society/Infectious Diseases Society of America statement on nontuberculous mycobacterial diseases, more evidence for the benefits of adjuvant nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease surgical intervention is needed before its wide application can be recommended. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of 60 consecutive patients who met ...
