Cyclophosphamide-modified murine peritoneal macrophages induce CD4+ T contrasuppressor cells that protect contact sensitivity T effector cells from suppression
Cyclophosphamide (CY) is one of the most widely used alkylating agents in the treatment of various cancers and some autoimmune diseases. Numerous reports suggest that CY exerts immunoregulatory effects. Animal...

Article
Transdermal immunotherapy: Past, present and future
The human skin plays an important role in thermal regulation, the maintenance of the correct water and electrolyte balance; it is also the main source of the vitamin D for the organism. Moreover, the skin form...

Article
Epicutaneous (EC) immunization with type II collagen (COLL II) induces CD4+ CD8+ T suppressor cells that protect from collagen-induced arthritis (CIA)
We have shown previously that epicutaneous (EC) immunization with protein antigen induces T suppressor cells that alleviate inflammatory response in contact hypersensitivity reactions, in an animal model of mu...

Article
Oral treatment with enrofloxacin early in life promotes Th2-mediated immune response in mice
Th2 lymphocytes play a crucial role in the development of allergy. These pathologies are caused by coordinated production of the cytokines IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 that regulate the activity of eosinophils, basoph...

Epicutaneous immunization with phosphorylcholine conjugated to bovine serum albumin (PC-BSA) and TLR9 ligand CpG alleviates pneumococcal pneumonia in mice
Epicutaneous (EC) immunization is a potential new strategy of a needle-free and self-administrable immunization by using a topically applied patch to deliver vaccine. We have previously shown that EC immunizat...

Inhibition of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene-induced contact hypersensitivity reaction by antidepressant drugs
Contact hypersensitivity (CHS) induced by a topical application of hapten - 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB), is a T cytotoxic (Tc)1-cell-mediated antigen-specific type of skin inflammation. Recently, it has be...
