The differential effect of stress on natural killer T (NKT) and NK cell function

When C57Bl/6 mice were exposed to restraint stress for 12 h or 24 h, lymphocytopenia was induced in the liver, spleen, and thymus. We examined which types of lymphocytes were sensitive or resistant...

Denatured syngeneic liver tissue prepared by mechanical procedures was intraperitoneally injected into adult C57BL/6 mice. In parallel with a decrease in the total number of lymphocytes in the liver,...

1. The effects of AFD-21, a newly synthesized antiarrhythmic compound, and AFD-19, its active metabolite, on transmembrane action potentials were examined in right ventricular papillary muscles and...

In this study, we examined the effects of macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) on glomerular macrophages in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced murine nephritis. Mice injected intraperitoneally...
Timing as a prominent factor of the Jendrassik manoeuvre on the H reflex.
The influence of the Jendrassik manoeuvre on the myotatic reflex was analysed using a strain gauge as an indicator of the upper extremity movement and the H reflex of the soleus muscle as the test...

Beige mice lack natural killer (NK) cytotoxicity, although NK cells are normally present. In recent studies, NK T cells have been newly identified. We therefore examined the number and function of NK...

Appearance of B220low autoantibody-producing B-1 cells at neonatal and older stages in mice
Tachikawa, S, Kawamura, T, Kawamura, H, Kanda, Y, Fujii, Y, Matsumoto, H, ...
In this study, normal adult mice carried B220high conventional B cells in the spleen and liver, but carried both B220high and B220low in the bone marrow. However, at the neonatal stage, only B220low...
