Adult mice injected intraperitoneally with concanavalin A (con-A) commencing with the onset of 6mm. Moloney sarcoma virus (MSV)-induced tumors showed a marked enhancement of tumor growth compared to untreated control mice; whereas, treatment with con-A beginning on day 0 relative to MSV inoculation
Concanavalin A (Con A) concentration dependence of agglutinability of a mutant of Rous sarcoma virus which is temperature-sensitive for transformation was examined. Con A agglutinability of the virion was quantitatively expressed by measuring radioactivities of 60 to 70 S RNA extracted from Con
As a model for the development of paraneoplastic syndromes, we have studied the mechanism by which erythrocytes in the circulation of rats bearing intraperitoneal Yoshida ascites sarcoma acquire higher agglutinability with concanavalin A (Con A). The in vitro incubation of erythrocytes from normal
The interactions between concanavalin A and chick embryo fibroblasts, normal and infected with Rous sarcoma virus (RSV-BH) or its thermosensitive mutant RSV-BH-Ta, have been studied. Normal chick embryo cells and RSV-BH transformed cells showed at 4 and 25 degrees C a similar number of concanavalin
Twelve homosexual patients with Kaposi's sarcoma associated with the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) were treated with a preparation of purified human lymphoblastoid interferon (Wellferon [Burroughs Wellcome, Research Triangle Park, NC]). They were given a dose of 20 X 10(6) U/m2
We measured the lateral diffusion of the fluorescent lipid analogue dioctadecylindocarbocyanine iodide (DiI) and of membrane glycoproteins labeled with tetramethylrhodamine (TRITC) succinyl concanavalin A (SConA) via fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR) at selected times during a temperature
Murine sarcoma virus-transformed mouse fibroblasts produce potent immunosuppressive factors (ISF) in vitro. The partially purified ISF inhibited thymocyte proliferation induced by concanavalin A or phytohemagglutinin plus lymphocyte activating factor (Interleukin 1), lipopolysaccharide-induced
Erythrocytes from the circulation of rats bearing Yoshida ascites sarcoma exhibit higher concanavalin A (ConA)-mediated agglutinability than those from normal animals. A tetrameric glycoprotein of subunit molecular mass 170 kDa, purified from the cell-free ascites fluid, was found to confer higher
A 24 year old male with a history of eczema, recurrent mild infections, and thrombocytopenia consistent with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) presented with a mediastinal mass, generalized lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and severe thrombocytopenia. Studies of immune function including
The subject of this investigation was an 11-month-old infant girl who presented with a pathological fracture of the right femur due to a metastasis from an abdominal immunoblastic sarcoma. Her past history included recurrent, intractable bacterial and fungal infections. Investigations of her immune
