Murine Recombinant Interleukin-3 Induces Recovery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Injection of murine recombinant interleukin-3 (IL-3) into (C57BL/IO X DBA/2)F1 mice, sublethally irradiated with 300 cGy and killed 14 days later, induced in the thymus recovery of the cell number and mitotic responsiveness to concanavalin A (Con A), as well as an increase in number of double-negative CD4-CD8-, double-positive C M + CD8+, and single-positive CD4+CD8and CM-CD8' cells. Also in the spleen, the cell count and mitotic responsiveness to Con A and lipopolysaccharide were increased

Expression of Recombinant Streptokinase from Streptococcus Pyogenes and Its Reaction with Infected Human and Murine Sera
Objective(s): Streptokinase (SKa) is an antigenic protein which is secreted by Streptococcus pyogenes. Streptokinase induces inflammation by complement activation, which may play a role in post infectious diseases. In the present study, recombinant streptokinase from S. pyogenes was produced and showed that recombinant SKa protein was recognized by infected human sera using Western blot analy...
متن کاملMultiple In Vivo Effects of Interleukin - 3 and Interleukin - 6 on Murine
The in vivo effects of interleukin-3 (IL-3). interleukin-6 (IL-6). and a combination of IL-3 plus IL-6 on murine megakaryocytopoiesis and thrombopoiesis were examined. Human recombinant IL-6 was administered subcutaneously as 14 equal injections of 5,000 units each during a 102-hour period. Murine recombinant IL-3 was given as 8 injections of 80,000 units each during the first 54 hours. Megakar...
متن کاملLeukotrienes mediate murine bronchopulmonary hyperreactivity, inflammation, and part of mucosal metaplasia and tissue injury induced by recombinant murine interleukin-13.
Interleukin (IL)-13 induces bronchopulmonary hyperreactivity (BHR), eosinophilic inflammation, and mucus accumulation in the murine airways. To investigate the potential role of leukotrienes (LT) in mediating these effects, we studied the ability of IL-13 to induce the expression of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), we compared the effects of IL-13 and of various leukotrienes on different biological param...
متن کاملInterferon gamma is involved in the recovery of athymic nude mice from recombinant vaccinia virus/interleukin 2 infection
Athymic nude mice recover from an infection with recombinant vaccinia virus (VV) encoding murine interleukin 2 (IL-2), but treatment with a mAb to IL-2 accentuated infection. Administration of a mAb against interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) to mice infected with the IL-2-encoding virus completely prevented the IL-2-induced mechanisms of recovery. Both asialo-GM1+ (NK) and asialo-GM1- (non-NK) cells ...
متن کاملInterleukin-1 accelerates murine granulocyte recovery following treatment with cyclophosphamide.
This study investigated the effects of recombinant human interleukin-1 (rhIL-1 alpha) on granulocyte recovery following treatment of mice with cyclophosphamide (CPM). CF1 mice were injected with 0.5 microgram rhIL-1 alpha or heat-inactivated rhIL-1 alpha according to five different regimens, before and/or following 200 mg/kg CPM. Significant neutrophilia initially developed in treatment mice of...
