Skh:HR-1 hairless mice were irradiated chronically with sub-erythemal doses of UVB radiation, and a number of biochemical parameters in the skin were determined after 6, 12, 18, and 24 wk of exposure. The parameters measured were water, collagen, elastin, and

We have studied an indirect role of serine and thiol proteases in the activation of human neutrophils in vitro. Stimulation was evaluated using a chemiluminescence (CL) generation system. Receptor-dependent and receptor-independent stimuli were studied, e.g. opsonized zymosan, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, platelet activating

Local TNF-alpha production in different organs may affect HIV replication and pathogenesis. Alveolar macrophages (AMs) obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage from asymptomatic HIV-seropositive and HIV-seronegative individuals did not spontaneously release TNF-alpha, but LPS stimulation of these cells significantly increased TNF-alpha production.
