Prevention of lethal respiratory vaccinia infections in mice with interferon-α and interferon-γ [PDF]
The antiviral efficacy of interferons (IFNs) was evaluated using a vaccinia intranasal infection model in mice in this study. We provide evidence that intranasal administration of IFN-alpha and IFN-gamma (days -1 to +3) resulted in 100 and 90% survival against a lethal respiratory vaccinia infection (8 LD50) in mice, respectively; whereas no animals in

Objective: Gene expression profiling by microarrays or RT PCR had been studied in certain western centers to enhance the diagnostic accuracy of allograft biopsy, however, such sophisticated tests are difficult to apply in developing countries. This study was conducted to evaluate the expression of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and Interferon-gamma (IFNγ)

ISG15 Connects Autophagy and IFN-γ-Dependent Control of
The intracellular protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii is capable of infecting most nucleated cells, where it survives in a specially modified compartment called the parasitophorous vacuole (PV). Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is the major cytokine involved in

LEVELS OF IL-4 AND Γ- INTERFERON IN CHILDREN’S BLOOD SERUM AS PREDICTORS OF ASTHMA FORMATION
Introduction. The prevalence of asthma continues to increase every year. Asthma is the leading chronic disease. Infl ammation, both acute and chronic, is closely related to the action of cytokines (pro- and anti-infl ammatory).

Interleukin-13 and interferon-γ are important effectors of T-helper cells. Interleukin-13 increases expression of the arachidonic acid-metabolizing enzyme, 15-lipoxygenase-1, in a variety of cell types.

Interferon-β induction byChlamydia pneumoniaein human smooth muscle cells [PDF]
Clinical studies have suggested a causal or contributory role of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection in asthma and atherosclerosis. The activation of synthetic functions of smooth muscle cells (SMC) including the production of cytokines and growth factors plays a major role in the formation of fibrous atherosclerotic plaques as well as in structural ...
