چکیده

M. setense is an emerging organism of the M. fortuitum group that must be added to the growing list of rapidly growing mycobacteria isolated from humans. The initial gram-positive rod appearance of M. setense may delay its accurate identifi cation. Determination of antimicrobial drug susceptibility needs to be conducted by the reference broth dilution method. Further reports are warranted to characterize the role of M. setense in infection.

Human Bocavirus in Iranian children with acute gastroenteritis

  Background: Human Bocavirus ( HBoV) infection is of worldwide distribution. There is increasing evidence that HBoV is pathogenic for the human gastroenteric tract. However, less data are available on the role of HBoV in gastroenteritis. The present study was aimed to determine the prevalence of HBoV in children with gastroenteritis.   Methods : Real-time PCR TaqMan was used to screen 200 st...

Cell-mediated immune response to bacterial products in human tonsils and peripheral blood lymphocytes.

Lymphoproliferative responses of tonsillar tissue lymphocytes and peripheral blood lymphocytes to phytohemagglutinin and specific bacterial product antigens were studied in children undergoing tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Tonsillar tissue lymphocytes responded to optimal concentrations of phytohemagglutinin. Varidase, and streptolysin-O in a manner similar to peripheral blood lymphocytes. H...

Subpopulation of human tonsillar lymphocytes with mitochondria visible by light microscopy.

We observed a subpopulation of human tonsillar lymphocytes with cytoplasmic inclusions that stained orthochromatically blue with Wright stain. These lymphocytes represented fewer than 2% of cells in suspensions of cells from most tonsils; however, suspensions of tonsillar cells from 4 to 18 studied patients contained more than 2% (2.8%--6.4%) lymphocytes with cytoplasmic inclusions. These cells...
