37. Cell-free antigens from precocious Paracoccidioides brasiliensis culture induce a typical delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction
Cell-free antigens (CFAg) derived from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis have typically been used in immunodiffusion reactions for serodiagnosis or therapeutic follow-up of paracoccidioidomycosis patients. Thus, we investigated the usefulness of CFAg obtained from cultures at different ages, to evaluate cellular immunity by the footpad test, in experimental muri

38. A função da IL-10 na paracoccidioidomise pulmonar murina. / The role of IL-10 in murine pulmonary paracoccidioidomycosis.
Cellular immunity is the main defense mechanism of hosts infected by the Paracoccidioide brasiliensis (Pb), a dimorphic fungus that causes the most important systemic mycosis in Latin America. IFN-g activated macrophages participate in this activity that is antagonized by IL-10 an anti-inflammatory cytokine. Both, in the human pathology a

39. Avaliação do tratamento da cromoblastomicose experimental utilizando vacina de DNA (DNA-hsp65)
Chromoblastomycosis (CBM) is a chronic worldwide subcutaneous mycosis, caused by several dimorphic, pigmented dematiaceous fungi. Patients with the disease are still considered as therapeutic challenge, mainly due to its recalcitrant nature. There is no treatment of choice for this neglected mycosis, but rather several treatment options. Itraconazole and ter

40. Avaliação histopatológica e bioquímica da ínjúria hepática experimental induzida pelo tratamento crônico de ratos com o D-Limoneno.
This study aimed to evaluate the hepatotoxic potential of d-limonene - a component of volatile oils extracted from citrus plants. The preclinical research was conducted in an animal model (rats) with emphasis on histopathological and immunopathological studies for determination of tissue lesions and understanding of their pathogenic mechanisms. Sixty-three W

41. Avaliação da transfecção de células dendríticas com RNA tumoral como estratégia para indução de imunidade específica em pacientes com leucemia linfóide crônica. / Evaluation of dendritic cell transfection with tumor RNA as a strategy to induce specific immunity in chronic lymphoid leukemia patients.
O desenvolvimento da imunoterapia do câncer baseada em células dendríticas (DCs) é alvo de vários estudos. Para tumores sólidos, a abordagem baseada no uso de DCs alogenêicas fundidas com células tumorais tem se mostrado relativamente eficaz. Por outro lado, esta estratégia necessita uma massa tumoral considerável de cada paciente para a geração

42. Modulação de eventos da imunidade humoral e celular por venenos brutos e componentes dos venenos de Bothrops jararacussu e Bothrops pirajai / Modulation of events of humoral and cellular immunity by crude venom and components of Bothrops jararacussu and Bothrops pirajai
Snakes of the genus Bothrops are responsible for 90% of snakebites in Brazil. Their venoms cause local effects in humans and animals, such as hemorrhage, edema, pain and necrosis, characteristic of an inflammatory response. The mechanism is not well defined. These effects are related to the combined action of proteases, substances that induce bleeding and ph

43. Immunodiagnosis potential of M. tuberculosis CFP-10 for active tuberculosis / Anáilise do potencial diagnóstico do anígeno CFP-10 expresso pelo M. tuberculosis.
The use of specific antigens of M. tuberculosis is extremely important for early diagnosis of tuberculosis and to control the spread of mycobacteria in the population. The CFP-10 is an antigen that is present in M. tuberculosis, but is absent in M. bovis of BCG and environmental mycobacteria. So, the objective of this study was to determine whether the immun

44. Study of monocyte-derived dendritic cells from patients with paracoccidioidomycosis: expression of surface molecules and cytokines secretion / Estudo de células dendríticas derivadas de monócitos de pacientes com paracoccidioidomicose: expressão de moléculas de superfície e secreção de citocinas
INTRODUÇÃO: A paracoccidioidomicose (PCM), causada pelo fungo dimórfico Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, é uma doença sistêmica granulomatosa, endêmica em toda América Latina. Estudos anteriores no modelo experimental e em humanos relacionaram a resposta imune tipo Th1 à proteção, com imunodepressão antígenoespecífica transitória nas formas agud

Imunidade humoral e celular de crianças com desnutrição crônica semi-internas no centro de recuperação e educação nutricional, CRE Maceió/AL - 2008 / Humoral and cellular immunity in chronic malnourished children semi-interned in the nutritional and education recovery center (CREN), Maceió/AL - 2008
A Organização Mundial da Saúde define Desnutrição Energético-Protéica como uma gama de condições patológicas que aparece por deficiência de aporte, transporte ou utilização de nutrientes pelas células do organismo provocando uma deficiência de aminoácidos essenciais na síntese de DNA e RNA, que pode levar a um considerável comprometimento d

46. Helmintíase intestinal afeta negativamente a resposta celular específica contra o Mycobacterium tuberculosis em pacientes co-infectados
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) é um exemplo clássico de patógeno para o qual a resposta protetora depende da imunidade celular do tipo Th1, que é caracterizada pela presença de linfócitos T CD4+ produtores de IFN-g. Essa citocina ativa mecanismos microbicidas no macrófago infectado, levando à eliminação do bacilo. Evidências sugerem que a progre

47. Involvement of nitric oxide and its up/down stream molecules in the immunity against parasitic infections
Nitric oxide (NO) is a potent mediator with diverse roles in regulating cellular functions and signaling pathways. The NO synthase (NOS) enzyme family consists of three major isoforms, which convey variety of messages between cells, including signals for vasorelaxation, neurotransmission and cytotoxicity. This family of enzymes are generally classified as ne

48. Innate immunity and regulatory T-cells in human Chagas disease: what must be understood?
There is a general consensus that during chronic Trypanosoma cruzi infection, the host immune system induces complex processes to ensure the control of parasite growth while preserving the potential to mount and maintain a life-long controlled humoral and cellular immune response against the invading pathogen. This review summarises evidence in an attempt to
