متن کاملEffect of Shark Liver Oil on Peritoneal Murine Macrophages in Responses to Killed-Candida albicans
Objective(s) Shark Liver Oil (SLO) is an immunomodulator. Macrophages play a key role in host defense against pathogens like fungi. Candida albicans have mechanisms to escape immune system. We determined the effect of killed-Candida on the in vitro viability of macrophages and the effect of SLO on augmentation of this potency. Materials and Methods Peritoneal macrophages were separated and c...
متن کاملSynergistic Effect of LPS, IFN- and Iron on Apoptosis of Balb/c Mice Macrophages Following Nitric Oxide Production
Objective(s) Previous studies have demonstrated that the nitric oxide (NO) dependent death of murine peritoneal macrophages activated in vitro with IFN-g and LPS is mediated through apoptosis. In the present study, we investigated the synergistic effect of LPS, IFN-g and iron on NO production and apoptosis. Materials and Methods After determination of iron cytotoxicity, the peritoneal macrop...
