چکیده

In this study the effect of poly I :C-induced interferon on Herpesvirus hominis (HVH) infection in vitro and in vivo was investigated. The in vitro results revealed a significant effect of interferon on infections of HVH strains of different origin in mouse embryonic cells. The in vivo experiments performed in the HVH-mouse system indicate that the effective induction of interferon in an aminal increases its resistance to subsequent infection with HVH.

Non-Viable Lactobacillus Casei Beneficially Modulates Poly I:C Immune Response in Co-Cultures of Human Cells

  Background: Polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (Poly-IC) has been used as a viral stimulus to mimic in vivo and in vitro infection induced by some viruses. Objective: To determine whether non-viable Lactobacillus casei CRL431 (LcM) can modulate the immune response induced by Poly I:C in co-culture models of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and A549 cells. Methods: T and NK cell activati...

Herpesvirus hominis infection in newborn mice: treatment with interferon inducer polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid.

Intranasal inoculation of newborn mice with Herpesvirus hominis (HVH) type 2 provides a model for disseminated herpesvirus infections of human newborn infants. Treatment of this experimental infection with polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)] significantly increased the mean survival time and markedly altered the pathogenesis of the infection. No significant protection against final mort...

Effects of Sodium Valproate on the Replication of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: An in Vitro Study

Background: Sodium valproate, an anticonvulsant drug, is reported to stimulate Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 and Human cytomegalovirus replication. Since epileptic patients undergoing sodium valproate therapy may suffer from various virus infections, the effect of this drug on replication of viruses especially those affecting neuronal tissues such as Herpes simplex virus type 1 is worthy ...

Effect of Soluble HLA Class I Molecule on NK/LAK Cells Activation Induced by Poly I:C

Background:  Natural Killer cells express killer inhibitory receptors specific for HLA-class I molecules.  These receptors could induce signals that determine NK cells ability to mediate cytotoxicity.  Purified soluble form of HLA class I molecules (sHLA) could bind to NK cell receptors and down-regulate the NK killer function. Objective:  To evaluate the influence of sHLA and two monoclonal an...

Synthetic double-stranded RNA poly(I:C) combined with mucosal vaccine protects against influenza virus infection.

The mucosal adjuvant effect of synthetic double-stranded RNA polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid [poly(I:C)] against influenza virus was examined under intranasal coadministration with inactivated hemagglutinin (HA) vaccine in BALB/c mice and was shown to have a protective effect against both nasal-restricted infection and lethal lung infection. Intranasal administration of vaccine from PR8...
