Selective Protection against Conidia by Mononuclear and against Mycelia by Polymorphonuclear Phagocytes in Resistance to Aspergillus: OBSERVATIONS ON THESE TWO LINES OF DEFENSE IN VIVO AND IN VITRO WITH HUMAN AND MOUSE PHAGOCYTES

TL;DR: Cortisone inhibited the conidiacidal activity of mouse macrophages in vivo and of human or mouse mononuclear phagocytes in vitro and reduced the mobilization of PMN so that the second line of defense was also impaired, indicating that cortisone can break down natural resistance on its own.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protection against gram-negative bacteremia and endotoxemia with human monoclonal IgM antibodies.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that monoclonal IgM against LPS endotoxin can neutralize its toxicity in vivo and might be valuable for treatment of patients with Gram-negative bacteremia.
Journal Article

Treatment of E. Coli and Klebsiella Bacteremia in Agranulocytic Animals with Antiserum to a UDP-GAL Epimerase-Deficient Mutant

TL;DR: R rabbits immunized with a UDP-galactose-deficient mutant (J5) of Escherichia coli O111 that is unencumbered by O antigen since it cannot incorporate galactose into core LPS produced broad protection against different Gramnegative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Encystation and expression of cyst antigens by Giardia lamblia in vitro

TL;DR: In these studies, encystation of Giardia lamblia in vitro was demonstrated by morphologic, immunologic, and biochemical criteria and will aid in understanding the differentiation of an important protozoan pathogen.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro susceptibility of fungi to killing by neutrophil granulocytes discriminates between primary pathogenicity and opportunism.

TL;DR: Four virulent dimorphic yeasts were ingested by neutrophils, and triggered a respiratory burst comparably to opportunists but were less susceptible to hydrogen peroxide, suggesting that differences in the susceptibility to microbicidal products of leukocytes may explain the difference in virulence.
