Effect of gold on the immune response of mice.
نویسنده
چکیده
Separate concurrent injection of organic gold compounds and antigen into mice resulted in immunoenhancement that could be measured by direct and indirect plaque-forming cells, rosette-forming cells, and serum antibody assays. Kinetics of the immune response showed variable effects through day 9 of the experiment. Studies with British anti-lewisite, a gold antagonist, showed that the gold must stay in the system 1 day to obtain immunoenhancement.

Adjuvant Effect of Leishmania major Promastigotes on the Immune Response of Mice to Ovalbumin
The immune responses of mice immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) together with killed L. major (KLM) promastigotes as adjuvant were studied. Three doses (5 × 107, 1 × 108 and 2 × 108) of KLM combined with OVA (100 mg) were injected into the groups of C57BL/6 mice. BCG and complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) were used as control adjuvants. Lymphocyte proliferation and antibody titers were determined, an...

Elevated amount of the free radicals due to ionizing radiation causes deteriorating damage on immune system. Therefore, we made attempts to investigate the protective effect of vitamin E (vit-E), a biological antioxidant in BALB/c mice, so as to find an affordable prophylactic supplementation for individuals who are at risk. Several groups of mice were selected and exposed to sub-lethal g -irra...
متن کاملThe Effect of Cationic Liposomes Encapsulating pcDNA3.1+PA Plasmids on Humoral Immune Response in Mice
Background: DNA vaccines are third generation vaccines which have made promises to combat infectious diseases. Cationic liposomes are used as effective delivery systems for DNA vaccines to generate stronger immunity. Objective: Encapsulation of pcDNA3.1+PA plasmid, encoding protective antigen (PA) of Bacillus anthracis (B. anthracis) into cationic liposomes, and evaluation of its effect on spec...

In this study, we investigate the immunostimulatory effects of alcoholic extract of the coffee seed on cell-mediated immune response andcyclophosphamide-induced (CP) immunosuppressed mice. The assessment of cellular immune function was carried out by the measurement of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response. According to the literature survey, cyclophosphamide has only suppressing effect ...
