Transforming growth factor beta 1 selectivity stimulates immunoglobulin G2b secretion by lipopolysaccharide-activated murine B cells

Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been reported to induce immunoglobulin (Ig)G2b class switching, yet we observed strain differences in IgG2b secretion in response to this mitogen. Specifically, BALB/c B cells, unlike those from DBA/2, synthesized relatively low amounts of IgG2b relative to IgG3, IgG1, or IgM. This report demonstrates that transforming growth factor (TGF) beta 1, previousl...

Western Blot Analysis of Sera from Leishmania major-Infected BALB/c and C57BL/6 Mice

In Leishmania (L.) major-infected BALB/c mice Th2-type cells results in disease progression, whereas C57BL/6-infected mice mount a Th1-type response, which leads to control of the infection. Th2 response correlates with IgG1 whereas, Th1 response supports switching to IgG2a subclasses. Since IgG isotype-dominated response depends on different CD4 + T cell subsets, we studied the antigenic profi...

Mouse IL-13 enhances antibody production in vivo and acts directly on B cells in vitro to increase survival and hence antibody production.

IL-13, a Th2 cytokine, exhibits similar functions to IL-4 in stimulating proliferation and class switching of human B cells. Although mouse B cells were reported to be unresponsive to IL-13, we now show that IL-13 directly stimulates mouse B cells, causing extended survival and higher Ab levels. Recombinant mouse IL-13 was administered via osmotic pump during immunization of BALB/c mice with ch...

Poster 1013: IL-4R alpha antibody inhibits IgE production and airway remodeling in mouse model of house dust mite-induced eosinophilic asthma

Background Allergic asthma is associated with T helper 2 (Th2) immune response to an allergen. IL-4 and IL-13, key cytokines involved in Th2 immunity, promote eosinophilic inflammation and B cell isotype switching to IgE. House Dust Mite (HDM) allergen has been shown to induce allergic asthma in a mouse model via Th2 immune response that drives eosinophilia and influx of effector T cells into l...

بررسی تأثیر سرم موش حامله بر روی سلولهای دندریتیک در القاء تحریک لنفوسیت‌های T و تولید سیتوکین‌های IL-10 و IFN-γ Dendritic Cells and Antigen Specific T Cell Responses: Effect of Pregnant Mouse Serum

    Background & Aim: Tolerance to the semi-allogenic fetal graft by the maternal immune system is a medical enigma that has stimulated investigations for a half of century. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the tolerance of mother to the fetus. The successful pregnancy is proposed and proved by many scientists to be a Th2 dominant phenomenon. This hypothesis is proved in most as...
