Terminological Activities in Immunology

1990
The immune system is composed of a large variety of cells and molecules which are characterized by their diverse biologic functions. In order to describe their generation and the dynamic interactions, meaningful and coherent terminology is absolutely necessary. However, the situation is yet unsatisfactory because of the reasons we describe here.

Immunological activity of chitin and its derivatives

Vaccine, 1984
The effect of chitin and its derivatives on the activation of peritoneal macrophages in vivo, on the suppression of tumour growth in syngeneic mice and on the protection of the host against bacterial infection was examined. Thirty percent deacetylated chitin (30% DA-chitin), 70% DA-chitin and carboxymethyl-chitin (CM-chitin) induced cytotoxic ...

Immunologically Active Biomaterials for Cancer Therapy

2010
Our understanding of immunological regulation has progressed tremendously alongside the development of materials science, and at their intersection emerges the possibility to employ immunologically active biomaterials for cancer immunotherapy. Strong and sustained anticancer, immune responses are required to clear large tumor burdens in patients, but ...

Immunologically activated cells in aural cholesteatoma

American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1991
In this immunohistochemical study, we characterized the cells infiltrating the stroma of acquired aural cholesteatomas in detail, using a panel of monoclonal antibodies directed against immune cell type-specific antigens, HLA class II antigens, and interleukin-2 receptor. For all antibodies used, normal ear skin was stained for comparison.

The Immunological Activity of Anthracyclines

1982
The aim of this article is to review a series of results obtained by this group in the past years on the immunological effects of anthracyclines, centering on the two clinically most widely used compounds of the group, i.e. Doxorubicin (DX) and its earlier analog Daunorubicin (DM). An interest in the immunopharmacology of cancer chemotherapeutic agents

Extracellular Polysaccharides of Moulds and Their Immunological Activity

1991
It has been known for a long time that fungi secrete during their growth extra-polysaccharides. Fungal extrapolysaccharides (EPS) can induce the production of specific antibodies after injection into hyperimmunized experimental animals. In humans specific antibodies may be produced either after passive exposure to spores or in response to parasitic ...

Active and Inactive States of Immunologic Unresponsiveness

The Journal of Immunology, 1974
Abstract Immunologic tolerance was induced in newborn mice by administration of 1, 5, 10, or 20 mg of lysozyme. These mice were subsequently challenged with a mixture of lysozyme and bovine serum albumin (BSA), or with a covalently coupled conjugate of lysozyme and succinylated BSA.

[The immunological activity of corticosteroids].

Recenti progressi in medicina, 1997
Corticosteroids are among the most used anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive drugs. The most recent reports have shown that the corticosteroids: A) modulate the lymphocyte recirculation and induce a lymphocyte depletion mainly regarding to the CD4 cells.

The intracellular traffic of immunologically active molecules

Immunology Today, 1984
An immune response is the result of a series of molecular and cellular interactions. The molecules involved include secreted proteins such as lymphokines and immunoglobulins and cell surface proteins such as histocompatibility antigens, Fc and lymphokine receptors and the T-cell receptor.
