Reaction of the human granulocyte system in successfully treated bacterial bronchopneumonia.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The behaviour of peripheral blood granulocyte pools, nitroblue tetrazolium reduction by granulocytes, migration of granulocytes out of skin windows, serum muramidase activity and bone marrow reserve of granulocytes during uncomplicated bronchopneumonia were studied. The time course of changes in these parameters during infection was established, and suggests maximal changes on day 2 of infection with gradual regression until 30 days after the disease onset, when they disappear.

Site-Directed Mutagenesis in Human Granulocyte-colony Stimulating Factor, Cloning and Expression in Escherichia coli
Human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (hG-CSF) induces proliferation and differentiation of granulocyte progenitor cells. This glycoprotein is currently being used for treatment of neutropenia, in patients who have undergone bone marrow transplantation. So far, different researchers have tried to enhance hG-CSF biological activity and stability. In this study, Polymerase Chain Reaction (P...
متن کاملExpression of a Chimeric Protein Containing the Catalytic Domain of Shiga-Like Toxin and Human Granulocyte Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (hGM-CSF) in Escherichia coli and Its Recognition by Reciprocal Antibodies
Fusion of two genes at DNA level produces a single protein, known as a chimeric protein. Immunotoxins are chimeric proteins composed of specific cell targeting and cell killing moieties. Bacterial or plant toxins are commonly used as the killing moieties of the chimeric immunotoxins. In this investigation, the catalytic domain of Shiga-like toxin (A1) was fused to human granulocyte macrophage ...

Bacterial expression systems provide economic and logistic advantages in manufacturing proteins for human therapeutic purposes. However, most such proteins accumulate in insoluble biologicaIIy inactive form when overexpressed in bacterial cells. This is the case while attempting to produce recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) in E. coli. In this repor...
متن کاملAn unusual case of native tricuspid valve endocarditis and sepsis in a child with structurally normal heart mimicking bronchopneumonia
Right sided infectious endocarditis (IE) by involvement of tricuspid valve is mainly associated with cardiac malformations or intravenous drug use. Occurrence of right-sided IE in children with structurally normal heart is exceptionallyrare. We report the case of 9-year-old child presenting with bronchopneumonia and septicaemia who was diagnosed to have native tricuspid valve staphylococcal end...

A self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pL promoter, was constructed. The designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor cI857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pL promoter under heat shock induction. Using the constructed vector,...
