Insights on the structure-activity relationship of peptides derived from Sticholysin II
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-09-01)
Sticholysin II (StII) is a pore-forming actinoporin from the sea anemone Stichodactyla helianthus. A mechanistic model of its action has been proposed: proteins bind to cell membrane, insert their N-termini into the lipid ...
Polysaccharide-rich fraction of Agaricus brasiliensis enhances the candidacidal activity of murine macrophages
(Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, Ministério da Saúde, 2008-05-01)
A polysaccharide-rich fraction (ATF) of medicinal mushroom Agaricus brasiliensis was evaluated on the candidacidal activity, H2O2 and nitric oxide (NO) production, and expression of mannose receptors by murine peritoneal ...

The immunomodulatory effect of propolis on receptors expression, cytokine production and fungicidal activity of human monocytes
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-10-01)
ObjectivesPropolis is a beehive product and its immunomodulatory action has been documented; however, little is known concerning its mechanisms of action on human cells. Propolis influence on the initial events of the ...
Modulation of rat neutrophil function in vitro by cis- and trans-MUFA
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2009)
In the present study, the effects of trans-MUFA, elaidic acid (EA; 18 : 1-9t) and vaccenic acid (VA; 18 : 1-11t) on rat neutrophil functions were compared with those of cis-monounsaturated oleic acid (OA) (18 : 1-9c) and ...
Peptides of the Constant Region of Antibodies Display Fungicidal Activity
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCESAN FRANCISCO, 2012)
Synthetic peptides with sequences identical to fragments of the constant region of different classes (IgG, IgM, IgA) of antibodies (Fc-peptides) exerted a fungicidal activity in vitro against pathogenic yeasts, such as ...
