Disease relevance of Dinitrochlorobenzene

 

Psychiatry related information on Dinitrochlorobenzene

  • The results show that DNCB immunotherapy or immunoprophylaxis prior to or following DMBA tumor induction can alter the type of tumor produced and stimulate an infiltration of lymphoid cells into the tumor area probably invoking immune defense mechanisms [6].
  • The immunoreactivity to DNCB and DCP was modulated by direct suggestions and guided imagery under hypnosis [7].
  • Sixty-four patients suffering from senile dementia were compared with 71 age-matched controls suffering from functional psychiatric illness, in terms of their chromosome complement, tuberculin and dinitrochlorobenzene response and total immunoglobulin levels [8].
 

High impact information on Dinitrochlorobenzene

  • Cell-mediated responses in patients with acute and chronic forms of Type B hepatitis were tested by lymphocyte transformation to purified hepatitis surface antigen (HBS Ag) and to phytohemagglutinin, by dinitrochlorobenzene sensitization and by response to skin-test antigens [2].
  • As expected, CD45RC+ (but not RC-) CD4 T cells from normal unprimed rats transferred a DNCB-specific DTH response, whereas, 4 d after sensitization the CD45RC- (memory) subset alone contained the DNCB reactivity [4].
  • However, when donor cells were collected from thymectomized rats sensitized two mo earlier, DNCB-specific responses were transferred by both CD45RC- and RC+ subsets suggesting that many of the latter had developed from cells with a memory phenotype [4].
  • The hybrids were characterized by analysis of DNA content, P-glycoprotein expression by Western blotting, GST activity by use of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as substrate, and sensitivity to reversal of resistance to vincristine by exposure to verapamil [9].
  • Enzyme activity measurements were made for leukocyte cytosolic GST toward transstilbene oxide (TSO), 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, and benzo[a]pyrene-4,5-oxide (BaPO), and for microsomal EH toward BaPO [10].

Gene context of Dinitrochlorobenzene

  • The polypeptide encoded by the GSTM4 cDNA, produced in a bacterial expression system, conjugates 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene to GSH with a specific activity of 1.39 +/- 0.21 mumol/min/mg [30].
  • Furthermore, both Grx1 and Grx2 are shown be active as glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), and their activity with model substrates such as 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene is similar to their activity with hydroperoxides [31].
  • The increase in the expression of CD86 induced by NiCl2 or DNCB was most remarkable, being observed in DC from almost all the subjects we examined [32].
  • Nickel and DNCB induce CCR7 expression on human dendritic cells through different signalling pathways: role of TNF-alpha and MAPK [33].
  • It was found that the high levels of IL-4 and IL-10 secretion stimulated by TMA or MDI, and the lower levels of these cytokines induced by DNCB or formaldehyde, were in all cases dependent upon the presence of CD4- cells [34].
