13. Nutritional aspects of phenolic compounds in sheep fed with leguminous forage / "Aspectos nutricionais de compostos fenólicos em ovinos alimentados com leguminosas forrageiras"
As leguminosas constituem uma importante fonte de alimentos para os ruminantes e podem ser exploradas para pastejo direto ou, se conservadas, para fornecimento na forma de feno ou silagem. Algumas leguminosas possuem compostos fenólicos em sua composição. A caracterização química dessas as plantas possibilita melhor uso das mesmas na alimentação anim

14. AvaliaÃÃo dos efeitos antiinflamatÃrios dos antidepressivos clomipramina, amitriptilina e maprotilina / Evaluated the antiinflammatory effects of antidepressants amitriptiline (amt), clormipramine (clm) and maprotiline (mpt)
No presente estudo avaliou-se os efeitos dos antidepressivos, amitriptilina (amt), clomipramina (clm) e maprotilina (mpt) em reaÃÃes inflamatÃrias. Ratos machos Wistar, 150-200g, foram divididos em cinco grupos (n=6), em experimentos de edema de pata (EP) e migraÃÃo de neutrÃfilos (MN) em bolsas de ar subcutÃnea.

15. The Mycobacterium leprae antigen 85 complex gene family: identification of the genes for the 85A, 85C, and related MPT51 proteins.
The genes for two novel members (designated 85A and 85C) of the Mycobacterium leprae antigen 85 complex family of proteins and the gene for the closely related M. leprae MPT51 protein were isolated. The complete DNA sequence of the M. leprae 85C gene and partial sequences of the 85A and MPT51 genes are presented. As in M. tuberculosis, the M. leprae 85A, 85C

16. Analysis of the genes encoding the antigen 85 complex and MPT51 from Mycobacterium avium.
The components of the fibronectin-binding antigen 85 complex (85A, 85B, and 85C) and the related protein MPB/MPT51 are major secreted proteins in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis BCG. The fbpA, fbpC, and mpt51 genes encoding 85A, 85C, and MPT51, respectively, were isolated from Mycobacterium avium and sequenced in this study. The structures

17. Isolation and partial characterization of major protein antigens in the culture fluid of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Five actively secreted proteins (MPT32, MPT45, MPT51, MPT53, and MPT63) and the MPT46 protein were purified to homogeneity from Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture fluid and compared with proteins previously purified by ourselves and other investigators. Antisera were obtained by immunization of rabbits with all of the newly isolated proteins identified to be

18. Identification of Murine H2-Dd- and H2-Ab-Restricted T-Cell Epitopes on a Novel Protective Antigen, MPT51, of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Both CD4+ type 1 helper T (Th1) cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play pivotal roles in protection against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Here, we identified Th1 and CTL epitopes on a novel protective antigen, MPT51, in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. Mice were immunized with plasmid DNA encoding MPT51 by using a gene gun, and gamma interferon (IF

19. Induction of Protective Cellular Immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Recombinant Attenuated Self-Destructing Listeria monocytogenes Strains Harboring Eukaryotic Expression Plasmids for Antigen 85 Complex and MPB/MPT51
We report here the induction of specific protective cellular immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis by the employment of vaccination with recombinant attenuated Listeria monocytogenes strains. We constructed self-destructing attenuated L. monocytogenes Δ2 strains carrying eukaryotic expression plasmids for the antigen 85 complex (Ag85A and Ag85B) and f

20. Heterogeneity of monoclonal antibody-reactive epitopes on mycobacterial 30-kilodalton-region proteins and the secreted antigen 85 complex and demonstration of antigen 85B on the Mycobacterium leprae cell wall surface.
Proteins of the antigen 85 complex in the 30-kDa region secreted by live mycobacteria are important in the immune response against mycobacterial infections and may play an important biological role in the host-parasite interaction. In the present study, we have characterized epitopes of the 30-kDa-region proteins and the antigen 85 complex by using a panel o

21. Diversity of Antigen Recognition by Serum Antibodies in Experimental Bovine Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis in cattle remains a major zoonotic and economic problem in many countries. The standard diagnostic assay for bovine tuberculosis, the intradermal tuberculin test, has low accuracy. Therefore, alternative immunodiagnostic methods, such as serological assays, are needed for detection of infected animals. Development of an accurate serodiagnostic t

22. Identification and characterization of epitopes shared between the mycobacterial 65-kilodalton heat shock protein and the actively secreted antigen 85 complex: their in situ expression on the cell wall surface of Mycobacterium leprae.
Both mycobacterial hsp65 and the actively secreted antigen 85 complex of 30-kDa region proteins are considered to be major immune targets in mycobacterial diseases. In this study, by using a novel series of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed to these antigens, we identified and partially characterized three unique epitopes (Rb2, Pe12, and A2h11) that are

23. Antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Recognized by Antibodies during Incipient, Subclinical Tuberculosis
Serum samples obtained from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected tuberculosis (TB) patients months prior to clinical TB were used to delineate the profile of Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture filtrate proteins recognized during subclinical TB. A subset of ∼12 antigens was recognized by antibodies in these serum samples. Antibodies to two of these a

24. Evidence for occurrence of the ESAT-6 protein in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and virulent Mycobacterium bovis and for its absence in Mycobacterium bovis BCG.
ESAT-6 is a secreted protein present in the short-term culture filtrate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis after growth on a synthetic Sauton medium. ESAT-6 has recently been demonstrated to induce strong T-cell responses in a mouse model of memory immunity after infection with M. tuberculosis. In Western blotting (immunoblotting), the monoclonal antibody HYB76-8
