Interferon-gamma-dependent expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, interleukin-12, and interferon-gamma-inducing factor in macrophages elicited by allografted tumor cells.
We have examined the mechanisms of activation of macrophages (Møs) induced by i.p. allografted Meth A tumor cells (Meth A-Møs) during the rejection of the cells by C57BL/6 mice. Inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS), interleukin-12 (IL-12), and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-inducing factor (IGIF) were transiently expressed in Meth A-Møs during the rejection. The expression was impaired in ...
متن کاملExpression of cytokines and inducible nitric oxide synthase mRNA in the lungs of mice infected with Cryptococcus neoformans: effects of interleukin-12.
We have recently established a murine model of pulmonary and disseminated infection with a highly virulent strain of Cryptococcus neoformans and demonstrated that administration of interleukin-12 (IL-12) protected the animals against infection. In this study, we extended these studies by investigating the host defense mechanisms. In particular, we examined the expression of mRNA for helper T-ce...
متن کاملEvaluation of the natural killer cytotoxicity and the levels of cytokines in rats with type I diabetes mellitus.
Type I diabetes mellitus (insulin-dependent DM = IDDM) is a chronic disease characterized by specific destruction of pancreatic beta cells, resulting in an absolute lack of insulin. Immune mechanisms, genetic susceptibility, and environmental factors are all implicated in the pathogenesis of Type 1 diabetes. This study was aimed at determining the efficiency of cytokines, natural killer (NK) ce...
متن کاملEarly Th1 response in unprimed nonobese diabetic mice to the tyrosine phosphatase-like insulinoma-associated protein 2, an autoantigen in type 1 diabetes.
The insulinoma-associated protein 2 (IA-2) is a phosphatase-like autoantigen inducing T and B cell responses associated with human insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). We now report that T cell responses to IA-2 can also be detected in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse, a model of human IDDM. Cytokine secretion in response to purified mouse rIA-2, characterized by high IFN-gamma and rela...
متن کاملInterferon-γ Is Essential for Destruction of β Cells and Development of Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus
Autoimmune mediated destruction of beta cells of the islets of Langerhans leads to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Rat insulin promoter (RIP) lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) transgenic mice that express the nucleoprotein (NP) or glycoprotein (GP) of LCMV under control of the RIP in their beta cells develop IDDM after infection with LCMV and serve as a model for virus-induc...
