Autoantibodies and spleen cell-mediated cytotoxicity in adriamycin-induced myocardiopathy in rabbits.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spleen cells from rabbits affected by adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy were specifically cytotoxic for rabbit embryonic heart cells in microcytotoxicity tests. The interactions between "sensitized" spleen cells and rabbit embryonic heart cells were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Sera from these rabbits were shown by immunofluoresence to contain antibodies reactive with rabbit embryonic heart, kidney, and muscle cells. Cytotoxic antibodies were not detected. These sera contained factors that enhanced the cytotoxicity mediated by "sensitized" spleen cells and made normal spleen cells capable of destroying targets. The detection of these factors and of cytotoxins was dependent on the method of target-effector cells treatment by serum.

Correlation between adriamycin-induced augmentation of interleukin 2 production and of cell-mediated cytotoxicity in mice.
Based on the observation that spleen cells from Adriamycin-treated mice could develop augmented levels of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity in response to heat-treated and/or X-irradiated alloantigens, it was postulated that modulations in soluble mediators could be involved in this phenomenon. In fact, in this study Adriamycin-induced increases in the levels of prostaglandin E2 and interleukin 2...

متن کاملAugmentation of the development of immune responses of mice against allogeneic tumor cells after adriamycin treatment.
In C57BL/6J mice, depending on the dose of P815 cells used for immunization, Adriamycin exerted different effects on the cell-mediated lytic response and complement-dependent cytotoxicity. At the dose of 3 X 10(7) P815 cells, Adriamycin treatment had no apparent effect on cell-mediated lytic response regardless of timing of drug treatment. At lower doses of antigen (10(7) or 5 X 10(6) cells), t...
متن کاملImmune mechanisms in tienilic acid associated hepatotoxicity.
In order to investigate the mechanisms underlying the hepatotoxicity associated with tienilic acid (Ticrynafen) ingestion we have looked for evidence of sensitisation to drug altered liver cell determinants using an indirect antibody dependent, cell mediated cytotoxicity assay (ADCC). As targets, hepatocytes were isolated from rabbits pretreated with either tienilic acid or its isomer with or w...
متن کاملCellular Basis for Adriamycin-induced Augmentation of Cell-mediated Cytotoxicity in Culture1
The cellular basis for the augmented cell-mediated cytotoxic (CMC) response seen when spleen cells from Adriamycin (ADM)treated mice were stimulated in culture was investigated. Under conditions where mature macrophages were reduced (adherent or silica-sensitive cells removed) at time of alloantigen challenge, the cells from ADM-treated mice developed levels of CMC activity much higher than the...
