چکیده
An antigen isolated from Neisseria gonorrhoeae protoplasm reacted well in a flocculation procedure with sera from 86% of the females and 68% of the males infected with gonorrhea; the reactions with sera from presumed noninfected individuals were approximately 12%.

EVALUATION OF CELLULAR IMMUNE RESPONSES TO AMASTIGOTE SOLUBLE Leishmania major ANTIGENS IN RECOV ERED CASES OF CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS
This study was performed in order to define the cellular immune response of 12 recovered cutaneous leishmaniasis subjects to different soluble antigens of the amastigote form of Leishmania major. A soluble leishmanial antigen preparation (SLA) derived from highly-purified amastigotes from infected nude mice was fractionated by Mono Q column using Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography (FPLC) s...
متن کاملP-145: Role of Human Leukocyte Antigen in Miscarriage
Background: During pregnancy, the maternal immune system is in close contact with cells and tissue from the semiallogenic fetus .The human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class Ib molecules, HLA-E, -F and -G, are expressed at the materno-fetal interface. Because of the apparent immunoregulatory functions of these proteins, they may be involved in successful acceptance of the semi-allogenic fetus during...
متن کاملHuman Leukocyte Antigen-G Expression on Dendritic Cells Induced by Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and CD4+ T Cells Proliferation
Background: During antigen capture and processing, mature dendritic cells (DC) express large amounts of peptide-MHC complexes and accessory molecules on their surface. DC are antigen-presenting cells that have an important role in tolerance and autoimmunity. The transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) cytokine has a regulatory role on the immune and non-immune cells. The aim of this study is ...

متن کاملThe Role of Interleukin (IL-22) in immune response to human diseases
Background and aims: IL-22 is an alpha- helical cytokine. IL-22 binds to a heterodimeric cell surface receptor composed of IL-10R2 and IL-22R1subunits. IL-22R is expressed on tissue cells, and it is absent on immune cells. L-22 and IL-10 receptor chains play a role in cellular targeting and signal transduction to selectively initiate and regulate immune responses. The aim of this study was to i...
