## Abstract Cellβmediated immunity (CMI), as detected by the agarose microdroplet macrophage migration inhibition (MMI) assay, was investigated using peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) of BALB/c mice and several crude membrane (CM) and solubilized preparations of murine plasmacytomas. The MMI assay was
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases have been implicated as important mediators of the inflammatory response. Here we report that c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and p38 MAP kinase activities are reprogrammed during the IL-6 induced macrophage-like
We undertook a study to define the role of cyclic AMP [cAMP] in modulating the secretion of transcobalamin II (TC-II) in the mouse macrophage like cell line J774. J774 was observed to secrete large amounts of TC-II, particularly in the presence of 8-bromo cAMP or cholera toxin or when grown in mediu
The human leukemic cell line AML-193 was tested for its proliferative response to endogenously produced autocrine factors and to a variety of cytokines and colony-stimulating factors. Cells grown in the absence of GM-CSF incorporated tritiated thymidine, and this was partially reversed by adding neu
