Summary: In the present study, we have examined the effect of
methionine-enkephalin (MENK) on production of intreleukin-1 (IL-1) and
tumour necrosis factor (TNF) by mouse peritoneal macrophages. None of the
MENK concentrations examined altered IL-1 or TNF activity alone. However,
peritoneal macrophages co-stimulated with lipopolisaccharide (LPS) and
10-10 M MENK potentiated IL-1 activity but decreased TNF activity. The fact
that supernatant of macrophages incubated with LPS and MENK had increased
phagocytosis suggest that MENK could act indirectly by up-regulation of
cytokines.
Keywords: Tumour necrosis factor, Interleukin-1, Methionine-enkephalin, Phagocytosis

Summary: The influence of single and multiple injections of
peptidoglycan monomer on some hepatic enzymes, lipid peroxide generation in
serum and liver, sialic acid concentration in serum and spleen and hepatic
lysosomal membrane permeability was investigated. It was obtained that the
metabolic changes after peptidoglycan monomer treatment were time-limited
and from the toxicological point of view, provoked transient effect, the
results obtained may be of importance when using PGM in combined
chemo-immunotherapy.
Keywords: Peptidoglycan monomer, Chemo-immunotherapy, Superoxide anion

albumin

Summary: The aims of this study were to determine whether in vitro
nonenzymatic glycation of proteins by sialic acid induced the generation of
fluorescence, and whether the presence of this keto sugar may affectthe
generation of fluorescence induced by other sugars. The results indicates
that sialic can be potentially used to limit the damage from adverse
glycation-induced processes.
Keywords: Sialic acid, Glycation, Fructation, Fluorescence
Title: Superoxide anion production and some sperm-specific enzyme
activities in infertile men

Language: engleski
Summary: The relationship between superoxide anion production and
the activities of sperm specific NADH-diaphorase and isozyme LDH-C4 in
normozoospermic and oligozoospermic human semen samples point to
biochemical abnormalities which may affect the functional status of sperms.
The determination of these parameters may provide useful data in male
fertility of unknown etiology.
Keywords: spermatozoa, superoxide anion
Title: In vitro modulation of preleukemic AKR mouse macrophage
function by bacterial immunomodulators
- Authors:

Journal: Immunol. Lett.
ISSN: 0165-2478

Pages: from 185 to 188
Number of references: 21
Language: engleski
Summary: Spleen macrophages from 1- and 4-month-old preleukemic AKR
mice were stimulated in vitro with the bacterial immunomodulators
lipopolysaccharide (LPS), peptidoglycan monomer (PGM) and muramyl dipeptide
(MDP), in order to study their migration ability and mitochondrial enzyme
activity. Macrophages from 1-month-old AKR mice failed to demonstrated any
changes after in vitro stimulation while in 4-month-old AKR mice all
parameters improved significantly with all three immunomodulators.
Keywords: bacterial immunomodulator, macrophage function, preleukemic AKR mouse
