Immunosuppressive environmental chemicals may exacerbate allergic diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD). We examined the effects of the immunosuppressive environmental chemicals methoxychlor, parathion, piperonyl butoxide, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide on picryl-chloride-induced AD in NC/Nga mice. Mice were orally exposed (age, 5 weeks)

Understanding the evolution of the direct and indirect pathways of allorecognition following tissue transplantation is essential in the design of tolerance-promoting protocols. On the basis that donor bone marrow-derived antigen-presenting cells are eliminated within days of transplantation, it has been

Effects of the histamine H(4) receptor antagonist 1-[(5-chloro-1H-indol-2-yl)carbonyl]-4-methylpiperazine (JNJ7777120) were examined for 99 days in a long-term experimental model of pruritic dermatitis induced by repeated challenge with 2,4,6-trinitrochlorobenzene (TNCB) in HR-1 mice. Repeated application of TNCB to the back skin
T lymphocytes play an important role in contact hypersensitivity. This study aims to explore the immunosuppressive activity of SBF-1, an analog of saponin OSW-1, against T lymphocytes in vitro and in vivo. Proliferation of T lymphocytes from lymph nodes of
A water-soluble polysaccharide (LJP-1), with a molecular weight of 1.8×10(5) Da, was isolated from the flower buds of Lonicera japonica. Gas chromatography (GC) analysis showed that the LJP-1 was mainly composed of d-glucose and a small amount of d-arabinose. On
