The successful transplantation of autologous and isologous tissue has been achieved for many years. However, the ability of an adult host animal to reject a homograft from another adult animal of a different strain within the same species has prevented successful homotransplantation in adult animals. As early as 1953 Billingham and Sparrow' demonstrated that living donor epidermal cells treated...
H9N2 avian influenza viruses circulate worldwide in poultry and have sporadically infected humans, raising concern whether H9N2 viruses have pandemic potential. Here, we use a guinea pig model to examine whether serial passage results in adaptive viral changes that confer a transmissible phenotype to a wild-type H9N2 virus. After nine serial passages of an H9N2 virus through guinea pigs, produc...
Objective(s) In the present study, the effects of aqueous-ethanolic extract from Rosa damascena on heart rate and contractility were examined. Materials and Methods Isolated guinea-pig hearts were perfused through aorta in a Langendorff mode. Heart rate (HR) and contractility were determined in the presence of four concentrations of the extract (0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 1.0 mg %) and isoprenaline (...
The anaphylatoxin C5a receptor (C5aR, CD88 in man) plays a prominent role in mediating inflammatory and host defense processes. Direct evidence of C5aR involvement in host defense mechanisms was demonstrated recently using C5aR knockout mice. Mice deficient in C5aR were unable to clear intrapulmonary-instilled bacteria. The guinea pig system is perhaps unique for exhibiting cross-reactivity wit...
PURPOSE To characterize and compare gene expression patterns of the whole eyeball among human, mouse, and guinea pig based on expressed sequence tags (ESTs). METHODS Approximately 10,000 clones were sequenced from the 5'-end for each cDNA library made from mRNAs isolated from whole eyeballs of human, mouse, and guinea pig. ESTs were assembled and analyzed based on standard methods. RESULTS ...
Studies of the guinea pig small intestine have suggested that serotonin (5-HT) may be a mucosal transmitter that stimulates sensory nerves and initiates peristaltic and secretory reflexes. We tested the hypothesis that guinea pig villus epithelial cells are able to inactivate 5-HT because they express the same 5-HT transporter as serotonergic neurons. A full-length cDNA, encoding a 630-amino ac...
Chlamydia caviae infection alters abundance but not composition of the guinea pig vaginal microbiota
In humans, the vaginal microbiota is thought to be the first line of defense again pathogens including Chlamydia trachomatis. The guinea pig has been extensively used as a model to study chlamydial infection because it shares anatomical and physiological similarities with humans, such as a squamous vaginal epithelium as well as some of the long-term outcomes caused by chlamydial infection. In t...
The distribution of alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase 1 (AGT) within liver cells has changed many times during mammalian evolution. Depending on the particular species, AGT can be found in mitochondria or peroxisomes, or mitochondria and peroxisomes. In some cases significant cytosolic AGT is also present. In the livers of most rodents, AGT has what is thought to be the more 'ancestral' distr...
Monoclonal antibodies to guinea pig T cells and antibodies to guinea pig immunoglobulin G were used in immunofluorescence studies to identify T and B cells in central nervous system tissue from guinea pigs with acute autoimmune encephalomyelitis. T cells appeared before B cells and were distributed within the white matter parenchyma, while B cells remained in perivascular spaces.
objective(s): in the present study, the effect of tissue incubation with propranolol on functional antagonism of zataria multiflora boiss (z. multiflora) at muscarinic receptors of tracheal smooth muscle was examined. materials and methods: the effects of three concentrations of aqueous-ethanolic extract, 10 nm atropine, and saline on muscarinic receptors were tested on incubated tracheal smoo...
