Atypical hodgkin and reed-sternberg cells in peripheral blood of a patient with advanced stage of Hodgkin's disease - a case report [PDF]
The occurrence of abnormal Hodgkin's and Reed-Sternberg cells in the peripheral blood in a patient suffering from Hodgkin's disease has been noticed exceptionally rare in a previous period, and especially rare in last ten years primarily due to ...

Bioenergetic analysis of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells [PDF]
SummaryLeucocytes respond rapidly to pathogenic and other insults, with responses ranging from cytokine production to migration and phagocytosis. These are bioenergetically expensive, and increased glycolytic flux provides adenosine triphosphate (ATP) rapidly to support these essential functions. However, much of this work is from animal studies.

Estrogen and telomerase in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells [PDF]
The enzyme telomerase plays an important role in sustaining the capacity of T lymphocytes for homeostatic replication. Recent data have suggested that gonadal steroids might modulate telomerase expression or activity within these cells. We used quantitative assay techniques for both telomerase mRNA expression and telomerase enzymatic activity to ...

Effect of nutrient deficiencies on in vitro Th1 and Th2 cytokine response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to Plasmodium falciparum infection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: An appropriate balance between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines that mediate innate and adaptive immune responses is required for effective protection against human malaria and to avoid immunopathology.

Protocol to visualize glycan-mediated binding between virus and human blood mononuclear cells using thin-section transmission electron microscopy [PDF]
Glycan-glycan interactions between viral particles and host cells may lengthen the dwell time of the virus on the cell surface to facilitate cellular receptor engagement.

Circannual variation in the expression of beta 2-adrenoceptors on human peripheral mononuclear leukocytes (MNLs) [PDF]
Peripheral mononuclear leukocytes (MNLs) are widely used as a tissue model in studies of beta-adrenoceptor disturbances in hypertension and asthmatic diseases.

A novel assay for analysis of the regulation of the function of human osteoclasts. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Very little is known of the regulation of the function of human osteoclasts, largely due to the virtual impossibility of obtaining human osteoclasts ex vivo.
