Measurement of Candidacidal Activity of Specific Leukocyte Types in Mixed Cell Populations II. Normal and Chronic Granulomatous Disease Eosinophils.
نویسنده
چکیده
Normal human eosinophils possess appreciable intrinsic candidacidal activity. The leukocyte microbicidal deficiency of chronic granulomatous disease is manifested by eosinophils as well as by neutrophils and monocytes.

Candida albicans cells which survive ingestion and multiply within phagocytes develop characteristic filamentous pseudogerm tubes. Candida cells killed by phagocytic leukocytes develop prominent alterations in Giemsa-staining characteristics; this reflects degradation of cyanophilic cytoplasmic components, probably ribonucleic acids. The numbers of these partially degraded organisms, termed "gh...
متن کاملInteraction of Candida albicans with human leukocytes and serum.
A quantitative assay of candidacidal activity based on differential staining of non-viable Candida albicans by methylene blue was developed and applied to studies of leukocytes from normal individuals and patients with fungal and other infections. Serum factors were necessary for optimal phagocytosis of C. albicans but lacked direct candidacidal activity. Normal human neutrophils (38 studies) k...
متن کاملگزارش یک مورد Langerhans cell histiocytosis در یک کودک 3 ساله با تظاهرات اولیه دهانی
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease with formation of granulomatous infiltrations consisting of Langerhans cells, histiocytes, lymphocytes and eosinophilic granulocytes. The ethiopathogenesis of the disease has not been fully clarified yet. It can occur as focal or disseminated form - acute or chronic. Oral manifestations may be the first signs. This article reports a case of ...
متن کاملFunction of Neutrophils in Different Phases of Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
In chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), the mature granulocytes originate from a stem cell line harboring an abnormal chromosome, therefore it is possible that metabolic-functional abnormalities occur in the morphologically mature cells. In the present study, the phagocytic activity including intracellular killing, nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction, and phagocytosis were studied in 37 CML p...
متن کاملFrequencies of HLA-A, B and DRB1 alleles in a large normal population living in the city of Mashhad, Northeastern Iran
Objective(s): The population in Iran is a genetic admixture of the ancestral Aryan and other populations neighboring Iran. Different ethnic groups in Iran show wide regional distributions for many human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. Therefore, it is necessary and sensible to study the differences in HLA allele distribution in different area. We studied the HLA class I and II allele frequenci...
