Investigations were carried out on the hormonal env i ronments in cases of the urinary tract tumors especially in cancer of the prostate with a reference to the thymus. 1. Following administration of the thymic agent, decreases in eo s inphile leukocyte count of the peripheral blood and excretions of the urinary total 17 KS and the urinary total 17...

The acidic tetrapeptides of ECF-A, Ala/Val-Gly-Ser-Glu, exhibit peak in vitro chemotactic activity for human eosinophils at concentrations of 3 X 10(-8) M to 10(-6) M, and rapidly deactivate eosinophils to homologous and other stimuli at concentrations as low as 10(-10) M. The analogue Leu-Gly-Ser-Glu reaches peak activity at 10(-8)M-10(-7)M, while...

Carrageenin-induced inflammatory responses in the hindpaws of rats were quantitated by measuring: (1) alterations in volumes of the paws; and (2) alterations in concentration of dye, previously injected intravenously, which was recovered in perfusates from the paws. The inflammatory response in one paw was attenuated by previously inducing an infla...

Newt eosinophils are motile granulated leukocytes that uniquely display a highly visible centrosomal area. Electron microscope and tubulin antibody fluorescence confirms the presence of centrioles, pericentriolar material, and radiating microtubules within this visible area. Actin antibodies intensely stain the advancing cell edges and tail but onl...

Normodense human peripheral blood eosinophils were isolated under sterile conditions from the 22/23 and 23/24% interfaces and the cell pellet of metrizamide gradients. After culture for 7 d in RPMI media in the presence of 50 pM biosynthetic (recombinant) human granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rH GM-CSF), 43 +/- 7% (mean +/- SEM, n...

The effect of dietary zinc on larval burdens, tissue eosinophil numbers, and lysophospholipase (LPL) activity in the lungs and livers of BALB/c mice infected with Ascaris suum was evaluated. A. suum larval numbers were increased in both liver and lungs in low zinc groups during primary and secondary infection as assessed at days 2 and 7 after egg a...

The interaction in vitro between eosinophil effector cells and third and fourth stage larvae of Onchocerca volvulus was studied by electron microscopy. The morphological observations demonstrated different mechanisms of attack of eosinophil cells that are dependent upon the time of incubation. Rapid adherence to the cuticle of the target, flattenin...
