Immunoglobulin classes G,A,M in brain tumours.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Serum of 37 brain tumour patients was studied for, Total protein, Protein electrophoresis, IgG, IgA, and IgM in an attempt to ascertain humoral immune response. Findings were compared with 20 healthy subjects, matched for age, sex and socioeconomic status. There was significant rise in alpha-II globulin, while IgG was suppressed in tumour patients. Decrease of IgG was more marked in patients with malignant tumours. Immunoglobulin A was low in children when compared with adults. Immunoglobulin M remained unchanged (JPMA 42: 157, 1992).

In vivo study for evaluation the effect of Aluminum exposure on rat livers
The aim of the current research was to investigate the effect of aluminum exposure on humoral immunity (immunoglobulin G and immunoglobulin M serum levels), function enzymes, and histological alterations in the liver of rats. Materials & Methods: Sixteen albino male rats at fifteen weeks were grouped into four groups, and administered with aluminum chloride at 35g/Kg of body weight for 8, 12 ...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin Classes and Nutritional Factors in Plasma and Breast Milk of Lactating Mothers in Nigeria
Background: Breast milk is important for the overall well-being of infants. Although lactation is relatively robust in the face of poor nutrition, the implication of poor nutrition on non-nutritive factors in breast milk is inconclusive. Objective: This study was designed to find associations between nutritional and immune factors in maternal blood and breast milk with the aim to improve the ne...
متن کاملSome connections between powers of conjugacy classes and degrees of irreducible characters in solvable groups
Let $G$ be a finite group. We say that the derived covering number of $G$ is finite if and only if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $C^n=G'$ for all non-central conjugacy classes $C$ of $G$. In this paper we characterize solvable groups $G$ in which the derived covering number is finite.
متن کاملThe graph of equivalence classes and Isoclinism of groups
Let $G$ be a non-abelian group and let $Gamma(G)$ be the non-commuting graph of $G$. In this paper we define an equivalence relation $sim$ on the set of $V(Gamma(G))=Gsetminus Z(G)$ by taking $xsim y$ if and only if $N(x)=N(y)$, where $ N(x)={uin G | x textrm{ and } u textrm{ are adjacent in }Gamma(G)}$ is the open neighborhood of $x$ in $Gamma(G)$. We introduce a new graph determined ...
متن کاملThe eicosanoid cascade: possible role in gliomas and meningiomas.
Eicosanoids constitute a large family of biologically active lipid mediators that are produced by two enzyme classes, cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2) and lipoxygenases (5-LO, 12-LO, and 15-LO). Increasing evidence suggests that in addition to a variety of epithelial malignancies, the two most common types of human brain tumour, gliomas and meningiomas, aberrantly overexpress eicosanoid produc...
