PROTECTION ACTIVITY OF T CELL LYMPHOKINES AGAINST INFECTIOUS BURSAL DISEASE IN LAYER PULLETS
The present study was aimed to administering hyperimmunized avian salmonella-immune lymphokines (S-ILK) to 200 one-day-old layer pullets to improve the immunological response against Gumboro (IBDV) divided into four groups.

Proinflammatory lymphokine and hormone levels in men with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background. It is well known that the development of insulin resistance as the main factor of metabolic syndrome (MS) is accompanied by an imbalance in the cytokine system: an increase in the level of interleukin6 (ІЛ6), tumor necrosis factorα (TNFα)

Interleukin- 2 production during murine infection by Leishmania mexicana amazonensis
Highly susceptible BALB/c mice, resistant C57B1/6 and their F1 progeny (BDF1) were infected subcutaneously in the foot pad with Leishmania mexicana amazonenesis. At various times after infection, spleen or draining popliteal lymph node cells were assayed

Interleukin 2 transcription factors as molecular targets of cAMP inhibition: delayed inhibition kinetics and combinatorial transcription roles [PDF]
Elevation of cAMP can cause gene-specific inhibition of interleukin 2 (IL-2) expression. To investigate the mechanism of this effect, we have combined electrophoretic mobility shift assays and in vivo genomic footprinting to assess both the availability ...

Lymphokines are defined as nonimmunoglobulin secretory products of activated lymphocytes with a wide range of potent physiological effects on inflammation and immune responses. In this review, we summarized the recent development in lymphokine researches, including biochemical and immunological approaches.

T lymphocytes from patients with primary biliary cirrhosis produce reduced amounts of lymphotoxin, tumor necrosis factor and interferon-gamma upon mitogen stimulation [PDF]
Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is considered an autoimmune disease characterized by destruction of small intrahepatic bile ducts by lymphocytes. Altered functions of these lymphocytes might reflect an abnormal immune response leading to tissue damage ...
