Immunologic Specificity of Transfer Factor [PDF]
This study examined the immunologic specificity of transfer factor using a chromatographically purified transfer factor preparation. The specificity of transfer was examined utilizing immunity to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and tuberculin. Transfer factor prepared from a donor immune to KLH successfully transferred KLH skin test reactivity to 10 ...

Immunological Prognostic Factors in Multiple Myeloma [PDF]
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell neoplasm characterized by an abnormal proliferation of clonal, terminally differentiated B lymphocytes. Current approaches for the treatment of MM focus on developing new diagnostic techniques; however, the search for prognostic markers is also crucial.

Immunologic quantitation of tissue factors [PDF]
The large number of conflicting reports on the presence and concentration of circulating tissue factor (TF) in blood generates uncertainties regarding its relevance to hemostasis and association with specific diseases. We believe that the source of these controversies lies in part in the assays used for TF quantitation.

Nutritional factors and immunological ageing [PDF]
Undernutrition profoundly affects immune responses, particularly at the extremities of life: in infants and in the elderly. The present review focuses on this interrelationship in the elderly. It describes three different stages of ageing: stage 1, healthy ageing, which is observed in very healthy elderly individuals who have no nutritional deficit ...

Immunological Factors in Human Placentation [PDF]
A CONSIDERABLE volume of evidence from animal experiments suggests that mammalian placentation is under some kind of immunological control. In the mouse, for example, it has been shown that placental size1,2 and, indirectly, foetal size and length of gestation3 can be influenced by the materno-foetal immunological relationship. An increase in placental

The Influence of Nutritional Factors on Immunological Outcomes
Through food intake, humans obtain a variety of nutrients that are essential for growth, cellular function, tissue development, energy, and immune defense. A special interaction between nutrients and gut-associated lymphoid tissue occurs in the intestinal tract.

Immunologic characterization of canine factor VIII [PDF]
Abstract Canine factor VIII (FVIII) preparations isolated from cryoprecipitates by gel chromatography were pooled to provide one batch of antigen for simultaneous immunization of two rabbits and a goat. The goat and rabbit antisera had similar FVIII-neutralizing titers, but the latter had seven to ten times more precipitating titer for ...

Immunologic Factors in the Recurrence of Glioma
Glioma often recurs after apparently successful treatment and clinical remission. The effect of the host's immunologic status in such cases is unknown. In this study, the authors attempted to answer the following questions: 1) Is there a relationship between immunity and the recurrence of glioma?

Methods for Testing Immunological Factors
Hypersensitivity reactions can be elicited by various factors: either immunologically induced, i.e., allergic reactions to natural or synthetic compounds mediated by IgE, or non-immunologically induced, i.e., activation of mediator release from cells through direct contact, without the induction of, or the mediation through immune responses.
