چکیده

The staphylococcidal capability of populations of peritoneal macrophages in rabbits has been measured before and after repeated infections with Staphylococcus aureus. Such rabbits after infection showed delayed-type hypersensitivity to S. aureus antigens, but the staphylococcidal capability of the peritoneal macrophages was not increased. This result at the cellular level is in agreement with previous assessment in vivo of the consequences of staphylococcal infection. Pathways to cell-mediated resistance, with and without delayed-type hypersensitivity, are presented.

Interactions between salmonellae and macrophages of guinea pigs. IV. Relationship between migration inhibition and antibacterial action of macrophages.

The in vitro macrophage migration inhibition test was used to detect the development of delayed-type hypersensitivity in guinea pigs infected with Salmonella typhimurium. Four different preparations from supernatants of S. typhimurium cultures were used as the antigens in this test. They included the concentrated bacterial antigens, the high-molecular-weight (>50,000) antigens, the ammonium sul...

اثر لوامیزول بر مهار لیشمانیا ماژور در موش BALB/c

Background and purpose: The infection of Leishmania major in BÂLB/c mice can be visceralized if no treatment is administrated. The mamalian host cells are macrophages that are responsible for ingestion and killing of the parasites. Since leishmaniasis is an immunosuppressive disease, it has been shown that levamisole acts as an immuno-potentiator agent, attempts were made to study the effe...

Background: The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase inhibition in macrophages treated with 6-Aminonicotinamide, the amount of nitric oxide (NO) production and the resistance of infected macrophages against Leishmania major infection. Methods: Peritoneal macrophages of BALB/c mice were isolated and treated with different concentr...

Migration inhibitory factor and macrophage bactericidal function.

A homogeneous population of immunologically active lymphocytes was obtained from peritoneal exudates of guinea pigs with delayed hypersensitivity to bovine gamma globulin (BGG). The lymphocytes were cultured with and without BGG for 24 hr, and cell-free supernatant fluids were then assayed simultaneously for their ability to influence two in vitro parameters of macrophage function: migration fr...
