Alterations in Gene Expression of Interferon and Tumor Necrosis Factor‐α in Human Blood Macrophage-Like Monocytes Induced by Clinical and Standard Salmonella typhi Strains in vitro
Background and Objective: Salmonella typhi as a human pathogen stimulates the human immune system and triggers gene expression changing its pathogenesis. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the expression levels of ifn-γ and tnf-α cytokines in human blood macrophage-like monocytes in dealing with clinical and standard samples of Salmonella typhi in vivo. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sec...
متن کاملTNF-α Promotes IFN-γ-Induced CD40 Expression and Antigen Process in Myb-Transformed Hematological Cells
Tumour necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ and interleukin-4 are critical cytokines in regulating the immune responses against infections and tumours. In this study, we investigated the effects of three cytokines on CD40 expression in Myb-transformed hematological cells and their regulatory roles in promoting these cells into dendritic cells. We observed that both interleukin-4 and interferon-γ inc...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of moderate and high intensity endurance trainings with genistein consumption on tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF- α) and interferon gamma (INF- γ) in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 64 male diabetic rats were randomly assigned into 8 groups of 8 (1) first week control (2...
متن کاملAssessment of the Effects of Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors on the Immune Status Following Surgery in Adult Male Rats
Background and Objectives: Surgery via different mechanisms causes immunosuppression in the post-operative period. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of preoperative administration of cyclooxygenase inhibitors on blood levels of Interleukin-2 (IL-2), Interferon-γ (IFN-γ), Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α), white blood cells (WBCs) and lymphocytes. Methods: Seventy-five ma...
متن کاملمقایسه تأثیر Tumor Necrosis Factor-α، Monocyte Conditioned Medium و polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid در بلوغ سلول‌های دندریتیک
Abstract Background and purpose: Different laboratories have considered different maturation factors for producing human dendritic cells (DC) from peripheral blood monocytes. In this study, we comprehensively investigated the effect of adding poly (I:C) to standard maturation stimulus, i.e. MCM and TNF-α on the induction of T cell response. Materials and methods: Peripheral blood monocytes ...
