These anti-FXIA antibodies (Abs) contain two major specificities, anti-GP 330 and anti-GP 90. The contribution of each specificity to the localization of anti-FXIA Abs was studied by direct immunofluorescence. Perfusion studies, under conditions which avoid ischaemia, confirmed that in this system glomerular localization of anti-FXIA Abs depends only on anti-GP 90 Abs, and the failure of anti-GP 330 Abs to localize after perfusion could not be attributed to ischaemia. In contrast, intravenous (i.v.) injection of anti-GP 330 Abs results in granular deposits of rabbit IgG, similar to those observed using anti-FXIA Abs. Injection i.v. of anti-GP 90 Abs results only in (faint) linear deposits. Using alternating and combined perfusion studies with these Abs, it is shown that anti-GP 90 Abs do not influence localization of anti-GP 330 Abs. In addition, systemic administration of anti-GP 90 Abs combined with perfusion of anti-GP 330 Abs does not facilitate localization of anti-GP 330 Abs. Although directly after i.v. injection of anti-FXIA Abs some anti-GP 90 Abs probably localize in the glomerular capillary wall, our results exclude a dominant or ancillary role for anti-GP 90 Abs in the formation of glomerular Icxs in HICN.","PeriodicalId":9248,"journal":{"name":"British journal of experimental pathology","volume":"69 6","pages":"855-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2013298/pdf/brjexppathol00006-0099.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14197057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A generally similar pattern is seen in healthy controls and in patients with untreated pulmonary tuberculosis, treated leprosy, haemophilia A and chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) patients treated with prednisolone, but the gradient of increasing CD4:CD8 ratio with depth into the dermis is significantly less steep in patients with tuberculosis, haemophilia and prednisolone-treated COLD than in the healthy controls.

By using survival time as the criterion, animals of seven inbred strains were separated into three groups. C3H/HeJ and Dw/+ were most susceptible; C57BR/cdJ, BRVR and CBA/N (xid) were intermediate in susceptibility; C57BL/KsJ and C57BL/6J were least susceptible. Mean survival times (MST) were markedly influenced by the number of Candida cells injected while the ranking of mouse strains by survival alone was unchanged. There was a dissimilar behaviour of the strains to produce organ weight changes in response to infection when compared with uninfected mice which were matched for age and genetic lineage. Black mice had lower colony forming units (CFU) per mg of tissue at the time of death than animals of other genetic lineage. Nevertheless, the finding that MST and CFU studies were loosely correlated in a few strains of mice indicated that the proliferation of the fungus in the kidneys was not always the major cause of death. The beige mutation was found to determine an increased susceptibility to systemic Candida infection. The differences in survival for beige and nonbeige mice were influenced by the genetic lineage of the host, being much greater in the C57BL/6 strain (36.7 days) than in the C3H/He strain (5 days). C57BL/6 beige-J had significantly higher CFU per organ and per unit of weight than C57BL/6 +/+ mice. These data evinced an important contribution of host genetic factors to resistance to systemic candidiasis. It is suggested that innate resistance genes regulate the differentiation in the bone marrow and the function of cells of granulocyte-macrophage lineage.","PeriodicalId":9248,"journal":{"name":"British journal of experimental pathology","volume":"69 5","pages":"651-60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2013273/pdf/brjexppathol00005-0050.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14190242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A few enzyme activities were also assayed. Hepatoma microsomes demonstrated considerably lowered levels of cytochromes P-450 and b5. Hepatoma homogenates exhibited increased levels of cholesterol, normal amounts of dolichyl-P and slightly lowered levels of total phospholipid. The levels of dolichol, dolichol ester and ubiquinone in hepatoma homogenates were prominently decreased. In tumour microsomes the levels of cholesterol and dolichyl phosphate were increased considerably while the levels of phospholipid and dolichol were lowered. The phospholipid composition of tumour homogenates was roughly similar to that of control tissue. In tumour microsomes the relative amounts of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol were about 30% decreased, whereas the major phospholipids showed minor increases in amount. The rate and pattern of incorporation of [3H]glycerol into individual phospholipids in liver slices from control and hepatoma tissue did not differ to any larger extent. The fatty acid composition of tumour homogenates exhibited minor differences in comparison to the control with the greatest changes in the sphingomyelin fraction. In hepatoma microsomes the fatty acid compositions of the major phospholipids were altered moderately, with evident decreases in the relative amounts of the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. In hepatoma homogenates the fatty acid composition of dolichol esters differed only slightly from the control pattern. These results indicate that the major disturbance in the lipid metabolism of highly differentiated hepatomas is localized to the mevalonate pathway, thus affecting mainly the levels of cholesterol, dolichol and ubiquinone.","PeriodicalId":9248,"journal":{"name":"British journal of experimental pathology","volume":"69 5","pages":"671-83"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2013280/pdf/brjexppathol00005-0070.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13986268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This was compared, at an equal mass dose, to dust generated from the same chrysotile batch so as to contain the highest possible number of long fibres. The long-fibre cloud contained roughly five times more fibres greater than 5 micron in length as seen by phase contrast optical microscopy (PCOM). For increasing lengths, the ratio between the dust clouds increased progressively, reaching over 80: 1 for fibres greater than 30 microns in length. Rats treated with long-fibre chrysotile developed six times more advanced interstitial fibrosis (asbestosis) than animals treated with short-fibre chrysotile and three times more pulmonary tumours. At the end of the 12-month dusting period, three times more short chrysotile than long had been retained in the rat lung tissues. During the following 6 months, however, the short-fibre chrysotile was removed from the lungs much more rapidly than the long. Following intraperitoneal injection at a mass dose of 25mg of dust, both long and short chrysotile produced mesotheliomas in more than 90% of rats. At a dose level of 2.5mg of dust, the short-fibre chrysotile produced mesotheliomas in only one-third as many rats as the long-fibre dust which still produced mesotheliomas in more than 90% of animals injected. At a dose level of 0.25mg of dust, the short-fibre chrysotile produced no mesotheliomas while the long-fibre chrysotile still produced these tumours in 66% of rats. In the two highest doses, where short-fibre chrysotile produced mesotheliomas, the mean tumour induction period was significantly longer than for tumours produced by long chrysotile.","PeriodicalId":9248,"journal":{"name":"British journal of experimental pathology","volume":"69 5","pages":"717-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2013275/pdf/brjexppathol00005-0114.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13986199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
