We developed and optimized a simple, efficient and inexpensive method for in vitro culture of peripheral blood lymphocytes from the Brazilian tortoise Chelonoidis carbonaria (Testudinidae), testing various parameters, ...

Blood cell lymphocyte chromosomes from untreated (UT) and clinically-cured (CC) patients with paracoccidioidomycosis and from healthy (control) people (CO) were studied. The frequency of aneuploid cells in the UT patients ...

Lymphocyte cultures from five patients with Werner's syndrome (WS) and five healthy controls revealed significantly slower proliferation kinetics in four out of five patients. Higher frequencies of chromosome aberration ...

We describe the interactions between monocyte-derived DCs, in different stages of maturation, with allogeneic T lymphocytes in a 3D system. Maturation of DCs increased their interaction time with T lymphocytes from 43 to ...

The development of an efficient immune response depends on the capacity of antigen-specific lymphocytes to migrate into secondary lymphoid organs. The first step in the process of lymphocyte extravasation involves lymphocyte ...

We developed and optimized a simple, efficient and inexpensive method for in vitro culture of peripheral blood lymphocytes from the Brazilian tortoise Chelonoidis carbonaria (Testudinidae), testing various parameters, ...

Sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and lymphocyte proliferation were studied in peripheral lymphocyte cultures derived from 5 patients with Alzheimer disease (AD), 5 control elderly subjects and 5 young donors. These parameters ...

We evaluated propolis influence on polyclonal activation of lymphocytes by concanavalin A (Con A). The in vitro experiments showed that propolis decreases splenocyte proliferation both in the absence or presence of Con A. ...
