An investigation of Porphyromonas gingivalis peptidylarginine deiminase: a putative virulence factor in an animal model of inflammation.
… the enzyme and the ability of P. gingivalis cells to citrullinate peptides and these rheumatoid arthritis relevant proteins. In addition, the influence of gingipains, key P. gingivalis virulence factors, on PgPAD activity was investigated. A limited histological survey was performed on …

Survival Of Mycobacterium Avium Subspecies Paratuberculosis In The Pol
… in vitro murine macrophage cell line j774a.1 and polymorphonuclear cells (pmnc's) from five crohn's disease patients. Pmnc's from three healthy individuals and two ulcerative colitis patients, as well as escherichia coli (atcc 11303) and mycobacterium tuberculosis strain h37ra (atcc 25177), were …

Role of the NLRP3 Inflammasome in bacterial keratitis
… using a slit lamp. Numbers of viable bacterial, polymorphonuclear cells and macrophages, and cytokines concentrations in eye homogenates were measured. Results: BALB/c mice infected with strains of P. aeruginosa showed a significant lowering (p<0.05) in clinical response, neutrophil numbers, and …

Adrenergic Receptor Gene Expression in Bovine Leukocytes and Effects of Adrenergic Agonists on Neutrophil and Eosinophil Function
… between the stress hormones E and NE and immune cells. However, AR gene expression and function have been studied to a limited extent in bovine immune cells. Furthermore, a thorough survey has never been published in any species to determine which of the 9 AR genes are expressed in blood …

Studies on anti-dsDNA Antibodies and other potential biomarkers in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
… is a functional test displaying the ability of polymorphonuclear cells to engulf necrotic cell material, which resembles the so-called LE-cell phenomenon. In combination with positivity of other traditional biomarkers, PNC assay may predict important clinical features, herein glomerulonephritis. …

Caracterização da microbiota intestinal, perfil inflamatório e integridade da barreira gastrointestinal de crianças diagnosticadas com transtorno do espectro autista
… Additionally, blood samples were used to isolate polymorphonuclear cells (PBMCs) and measure TNF-α, IL-6, and IL1-β levels after exposure to lipopolysaccharides (LPS) (1μg/ml) and phytohemagglutinin (PHA) (10μg/ml) for 1 hour and 3 hours.Results: All children in the ASD group reported at least one …

Integrin Modulating Factor 1 (IMF-1): A lipid that modulates leukocyte integrins
<p>Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) express a receptor of the integrin family termed complement receptor type 3 (CR3, also known as α<sub>M</sub>β<sub>2</sub>, Mac-1, Mo1, or CD11b/CD18) that functions in several cell-cell and cell-substratum adhesion events. The capacity of CR3 to mediate …
