1. The pharmacokinetics and toxicodynamics of single and multiple doses of cyclosporine were studied in the immunized rat model and compared with non-immunized rats. 2. The pharmacokinetics of cyclosporine i.v. (5 mg/kg per day) were similar in immunized and non-immunized rats after single or multiple doses. 3. The absolute bioavailabilities of single and multiple doses of cyclosporine (10 mg/kg per day) given orally were significantly decreased in immunized rats compared with non-immunized rats. 4. Oral administration of cyclosporine (10 mg/kg per day) did not alter renal function of non-immunized rats compared with untreated controls. However, inulin clearance decreased greater than four-fold in immunized rats given cyclosporine for 7 days. 5. In summary, the pharmacokinetics and toxicodynamics of cyclosporine given orally to rats are affected by the immune system.

Purpose: The present study aimed to compare the immune-enhancing potential of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to Alum against rabies vaccine and the related immunological, physiological, and histopathological effects.
Materials And Methods: Alum and AuNPs sole and in combination with rabies vaccine were used at 0.35 mg/mL and 40 nM/mL, respectively.

The activation of the maternal immune system by a prenatal infection is considered a risk factor for developing psychiatric disorders in the offspring. is one of the pathogenic infections associated with schizophrenia. Recent studies have shown an association between high levels of IgG anti- from mothers and their neonates, with a higher risk of developing schizophrenia.

Autoimmune uveitis is an inflammatory disease of the eye and is one of the major causes of blindness worldwide. Experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU) constitutes an animal disease model of human endogenous uveitis. In our study, we investigated the immunomodulatory effect of dimethyl fumarate (DMF) using bovine retinal extract-induced uveitis in a Female Wistar rats.

Recombinant measles AIK-C vaccine expressing the hemagglutinin (HA) protein of influenza A/Sapporo/107/2013(H1N1pdm) (MVAIK/PdmHA) was constructed. Measles particle agglutination (PA) and influenza hemagglutinin inhibition (HI) antibodies were induced in cotton rats immunized with MVAIK/PdmHA. Cotton rats immunized with two doses of the HA split vaccine were used as positive controls, and higher HI antibodies were detected 3 weeks after the first dose.

Background/purpose: The onset and progression of periodontitis involve bacterial infection and the immune response. T cells function in the immune response and reportedly induce bone resorption in inflammatory bone loss. However, the exact role of T cells in periodontal destruction remains unclear.
