Variable immune cell frequencies in peripheral blood of LEW.1AR1-iddmrats over time compared to other congenic LEW strains

The incidence of spontaneous abortion in mothers with blood group O compared with other blood types

Although ABO incompatibility between mother and fetus has long been suspected as cause of spontaneous abortion in man, its precise contribution has not been completely resolved. In spite of reports in which the incompatible mating was recognized to be a cause of habitual abortion, and which eventually results in infertility or a reduction in the number of living children compared with the numbe...

Immunophenotyping of Immune Cells in Peripheral Blood of TB Patient with Positive Smear Before Treatment

ABSTRACT Regarding cellular immunity function and macrophage system in tuberculosis infection control and also tuberculosis high spread in Gilan province and as many studies about tuberculosis has done in chronic and acute progressive process. This study was examined thirty persons smear positive with clinical symptoms and recognition infections expert before Treatment. Tuberculosis patients ...

Immune response of chickens to four lentogenic strains of Newcastle disease virus propagated in lamb kidney cell cultures

Genotype selection to rapidly breed congenic strains.

Congenic strains can now be constructed guided by the transmission of DNA markers. This allows not only selection for transmission of a desired, donor-derived differential region but also selection against the transmission of unwanted donor origin genomic material. The additional selection capacity should allow congenic strains to be produced in fewer generations than is possible with random ba...

Changes in peripheral blood immune cell composition in osteoarthritis

OBJECTIVES Immune age-related abnormalities may synergise with osteoarthritis (OA) pathology. We explored whether abnormalities in the blood immune cell composition are present in OA, beyond defects typically associated with ageing. DESIGN Blood was collected from 121 healthy controls (HC) and 114 OA patients. Synovial biopsies were obtained from another 52 OA patients. Flow cytometry was use...
